...other actors help a great deal. Jeannie Berlin, May's daughter, is adept at playing the same sort of antic stupidity as May and making it not only recognizable but also winning. Eddie Albert is spectacular, a figure to strike terror into any suitor's heart; his character is a combination of George Babbitt and Eric...
Working in New York after the war, he met toothy, tawny-haired Eunice Kennedy at a cocktail party. Joseph P. Kennedy, impressed with his daughter's handsome, 6-ft. suitor, offered young Sarge a job at his Merchandise Mart in Chicago. Shriver accepted and eventually moved up to assistant general manager of the Mart; he wed the boss's daughter in 1953, and they settled down in a 14-room duplex. Shriver's energetic involvement in local affairs, most notably as president of the Chicago board of education for five years, prompted some pols to tout...
Vivian's lover, or suitor, follows her around on a big horse, appearing at odd moments out of the bushes. Her father (Ruby's brother) trying out a new sit-down lawnmower given to him for his birthday, detects the presence of a stranger when he discovers a pile of horse dung on the lawn. But he is too late: Vivian has already climbed out of her bedroom and is riding away with her arms around her lover...

Screenwriter Jay Allen shamelessly uses the threat of the concentration camp--there is an occasional shock...
...battlement of slabs that interlock in five different "scenes,") Ralph Pochoda (as Iago) beguiles the audience only a little less than he does his victims onstage. In the process of driving Othello to Desdemona's murder, he fleeces Roderigo with confidence-inspiring volubility. The objections of Desdemona's wishful suitor (played aptly by Rick Carey as a puppyish windvane to Iago's rhetorical blasts) become thinly veiled pleas for a few more flattering promises...
