Whatever her predicament or hairdo, Actress Russell remains the triumphant embodiment of festive pandemonium and soignee wackiness. Hers is a delightful twining of farceuse and comedienne: she can give a drawing-room inflection to a loony-bin situation, or turn daffy or profane in the midst of playing a grande dame. To wonderful good nature she adds a few drops of acidity-juice from a sun-kissed lemon. Though Auntie Mame is really a one-woman show, Peggy Cass deserves mention as an unmarried expectant mother, and Polly Rowles as a stage star who has always started sleeping...

...wears her hair in a severe hairdo and is often seen in a dark suit with white blouse and necktie. But last November she appeared at a big party affair in a slashing evening dress, danced with party bigwigs until 2 a.m. Moscow scuttlebutt says Ekaterina is now a sports car buff, drives a speedy ZIS 112.

...evening wears on he gathers a little selfesteem; his gestures open out; he falls on a knee and thumps the stage; his hairdo collapses; he begins to get his teeth almost literally into his material, worrying the lyrics like a terrier with an old boot, biting off the sugary phrases as if they were sticks of seaside rock.
