Theater and Films

This article focuses on several motion pictures and plays. The film "Green Magic," is a report of a jeep trip across South America, the journey being made apparently for the purpose of reporting it. Count Leonardo Bonzi and his three colleagues are certainly undauntable travelers. Twice in the film "The Great Adventure" the steady roar of high planes presses down on the staccato chirps and barks arid cackles of the woods, and the camera looks up at the vapor plumes spiraling in the sky. Arne Sucksdorff wrote, directed, and photographed the film. The play "Once Upon a Tailor" was a Jewish pseudo-folk tale. It might run a few weeks on the strength of Oscar Karlweis in the title role and perhaps by virtue of Boris Aronson's main set, a cottage interior downstage, with above and behind a steep cliff criss-crossed by paths.
