Missions to Moscow. The man who was supposed to know the most about I.P.R.'s inner workings was Edward Clark Carter, 73 (Harvard, class of 1900), a onetime Y.M.C.A. careerist who joined I.P.R.'s staff in 1926, became secretary general (1933-45) and then executive vice chairman.

Producer-Scripter Robert Buckner, working from the 1945 novel, Lights Out, is less successful in dramatizing the story of how the hero finds his way, through a darkness of self-pity and the patronizing pity of others, to inner strength and security. Without the unpretty toughness and raw emotional power of The Men, the film moves slickly on a sentimental journey past soap-opera landmarks. Veteran Kennedy must choose between living supinely on a sinecure provided by his prewar fiancee's wealthy father, or striking out independently with the help of a selfless girl (Peggy Dow) who loves...
