...finally trapped him was both too forced and too trifling to support an hour show. Kraft TV Theater ambitiously tried Camille on NBC and Kitty Foyle on ABC. Signe Hasso coughed and swooned appropriately as the lost lady of the camellias, but as her burning lover, Jacques Bergerac (currently Ginger Rogers' husband) had scarcely as much animation as a wooden Indian and spoke his lines as if he had learned them phonetically. Cloris Leachman did pretty well as Kitty Foyle, although for most of the play she was more long-suffering and put-upon than Christopher Morley had intended...
Twist of Fate (British Lion; United Artists). In most movies about the French Riviera, the scenery at least is worth watching. In this one, however, the landscape is cluttered up with so much unlovely plot that it can hardly be seen.

Into this balm, to which you have already added the usual condiments of salt, pepper, bay leaf, thyme, beside an atom of ginger root, put a pinch of cayenne, a nutmeg cut into small pieces, a handful of crushed jumper berries, and lastly a dessertspoon of powdered sugar (effective as musk in perfumery), which serves to fix the different aromas. Twice a day you will turn the gigot. Now we come to the main...
...police (George Raft) discover that the girl did not commit suicide-she was murdered. Furthermore, she was pregnant. Things look bad for the producer. However, there is still the couple upstairs to be considered (Ginger Rogers and Reginald Gardiner) and the boy friend down in the Village (Skip Homeier). Producer Johnson manages very cleverly to keep all these oranges in the air until the next-to-last scene...
