ZANY GiS WITH
GIRLS IS COMEDY
AT 2QIH WWi
That continuous roar coining
from the 20th Century Theatre last
night was nothing less than a
houseful of convulsed moviegoers
watching Dean Martin and Jerry
Lewis serve a hilarious hitch in
Paramount’s "At War With the
Army." This wonderful pair of
zanies has never been funnier, and
if you can stand the strain of a
comedy that allows no breathing
time between laughs, then "At War
With the Army" is certainly your
movie dish.
In this story of two entertainers
who swap their stage routine for
the army routine. Martin and Lewis
set a new high for uproarious
laughter and side-splitting non
sense. As a blundering GI who’d like
to please his superiors but doesn’t
; quite know how, Lewis is the most
unmilitary recruit—and the funniest
—since the invention of the soldier
suit. And Martin, in the role of a
girl-happy sergeant, has as much
trouble with the ladies as Jerry has
with his saluting.
You haven't seen army camp life
until you've watched these barrack"
buffoons jam the gears of the mili
tary machine. Before they're
through the chain of command is
missing several lings, and their
riotous misadventures have reper
cussions that reach from the guard
house to the White House.
Sandwiched between these hap
penings, are some bright musical
interludes. Dean Martin, who has n
very special way with a song, does
a mellow job on the lilting Mack
David-Jerry Livingston score, and
he is abetted musically and roman
tically by beautiful Polly Bergen,
who proves that her vocal talents
are just as striking as her face and
figure.
This comedy is on again tonight, i
also Saturday night.
