The versatility, competence, and sincerity of Alice Brady put her very nearly at the top of the list of American actresses. It was to be hoped that when she joined the Theater Guild she would at last be provided with a vehicle worthy of her talents, but bad luck, following her even there, has decreed that "Karl and Anna" should be a bafflingly disappointing play. Such a tale might be made the vehicle for any of several different themes. It might, like Tennyson's poem, become the occasion for a sentimental glorification of renunciation.
