PHYSICAL, ALICE WAS RESERVED, DIGNIFIED, INTELLIGENT AND HONORABLE AT ALL TIMES. HER ROLE WAS HANDLED IN A SANE, INTELLIGENT MANNER RATHER THAN FURNISHING THE USUAL SUBJECT FOR HARMFUL PROPAGANDA OR MERE SENSATIONALISM."

THIS COULD MAKE A GREAT REMAKE WITH A CAST INCLUDING NATALIE WOOD, TRINA PETIT, KATHARINE HEPBURN AND TUESDAY WELD. SCRIPT BY MARION ZIMMER BRADLEY! WE SHOULD LIVE SO LONG? LET'S HOPE BEFORE WE'RE ALL MUCH OLDER WE'LL HAVE SEEN CLASS "A" VERSIONS OF THE WELL OF LONELINESS, DIANA, THE SCORPION AND STRANGER'S HARBOR.

ADDENDUM

'the Goddess'

"THE GODDESS", WHICH IS AN EXCELLENT MOTION PICTURE, WAS RELEASED ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND SHOWN MOSTLY AT SPECIALTY THEATERS. IT WILL UNDOUBTEDLY PLAY THE ART HOUSES FROM TIME TO TIME, SO WATCH FOR IT!

UNLOVED IN CHILDHOOD AND REARED IN A LONELY ATMOSPHERE AFTER (WITH HER KNOWLEDGE) BEING UNWANTED AND ABANDONED BY HER WIDOWED MOTHER, THE MAIN CHARACTER GOES THROUGH TWO UNSUCCESSFUL MARRIAGES AND FINDS HER LIFE AS A MOVIE QUEEN UNSATISFYING. SHE SUFFERS A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN, TURNS TO LIQUOR AND BECOMES A VERY MALADJUSTED PERSON SEEKING ONLY TO BE LOVED. SHE FINALLY ENDS UP LIVING WITH HER SECRETARY, WHO IS OBVIOUSLY A LESBIAN, AND THE LAST SEVERAL SCENES OF THE PICTURE BRING OUT THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH SURPRISING FRANKNESS IN THE DIALOGUE.

ANY PICTURE DEALING WITH LESBIANISM IS, OF COURSE, OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO US; BUT ASIDE FROM THAT, THIS IS SUCH AN EXCELLENT ADULT PICTURE YOU SHOULDN'T MISS IT. THE BROADWAY ACTRESS, KIM STANLEY, GIVES A PERFORMANCE THAT IS GREAT.
