MOVIE HAMERS OP MANY
COULD STAND IMPROVEMENT
Movie menances aren’t all crackpot scien
tists who like to saw blonds in half. Nor
are they always cold-eyed gamblers who
wear black felt hats and sport little
mustaches. The man sitting next to you in
the dark at your ba.se theater may be a
movie meriance. And the menance may even
be you.
Do you hee-haw like a jackass at com
edy scenes? D0 you give out with catcalls
and wolf whistles when Marilyn or Brigitte
go into action? D0 you make audible com
ments on their generous endowments? Or do
you go beyond that and mouth small-boy
smut?
Do you chomp popcorn and litter the
aisles and seats with rubbish? Do you
carry on a running conversation with your
buddies? Do you go' to the show straight
from the club, exuding a heady cloud of
alcohol?
No,the menance isn’t all on celluloid.
The old saying that'one bad apple can
spoil a barrelful applies to movie-going
—one nuisance in the audience can spoil
the show for everyone around him. And the
pity of 'it is, when the lights are up
he’ll probably behave like'any one else.
It’s the cloak of darkness that en
courages him t) act like a 1 ~>ut—in
Cinemascope, Vista-Vision and Stereo
phonic Sound.
