...Hoffman was nibbling at a problem which many economists feel will inevitably scuttle the value of any economic aid we send to Europe, at least on a short-run basis. Europe, partially due to war damage, partially to technical immaturity, can produce neither as cheaply nor as efficiently as the U.S. This means it cannot trade with us in a particularly equal give and take footing.

As melodrama, Montserrat, though sometimes talky, is oftener tense. As writing, it has much of Adapter Hellman's sharpness and bite: in particular, her villain (well-played by Emlyn Williams) brings a fine sardonic...
