...Captain's Table (Rank; 20th Century-Fox) is a so-so stateroom farce in which an honest clod of a freighter captain (John Gregson) is put in command of a passenger liner, only to find that it is a vessel of iniquity, whose officers are mainly concerned with smuggling cigarettes and snuggling with lady voyagers. Before long the captain has taken a pratfall into a tray of lobster newburg, walked shudderingly across a boat deck alive with cries of water-borne passion, indulged in a spirited pie-throwing match with a roomful of children, and repulsed the sort...

...most startling comeback of many a show business season is being staged by a trio of Brillo-headed knockabouts called The Three Stooges. Historically, they belong to the era when the Marx Brothers crammed more humanity into a ship's stateroom than a dormitoryful of college students assaulting a telephone booth. Clutching the slapstick just as hard, over the course of 24 years the Stooges cranked out 194 pie-faced comedies for Columbia Pictures, most of them two-reelers designed to run as curtain raisers before the main feature...

Paris Holiday (Tolda; United Artists). "Je t'adore," Anita Ekberg murmurs throatily to Bob Hope. "I did," he replies, glancing nervously at the door of his stateroom. He'll be sorry he did. Ekberg is a sneaking budge for a counterfeit ring, and Hope is an actor who wants to produce a play that exposes her employers. Arrived in Paris ("Say, that's the biggest TV tower I've ever seen"), Hope discovers that his room opens on the very same balcony as Anita's-a coincidence that could easily prove fatal, or even embarrassing...

...princely pleasure barge; it is also the flagship from which Niarchos directs the far-flung fleet of 48 merchantmen that carry his initial, a sprawling N, on their smokestacks. Each morning last week, while his guests still lay abed, Niarchos settled himself at a desk in his fawn-carpeted stateroom. With an unlighted Papastratos No. 1 cigarette between his lips, he pored over...
