Movie Review LIFE Et Tu, Brute? or Fate of a Classical Adventure The sign in the lobby reads: “They were treacherous ... those who mur- dered Abe, John, Martin. Bobby, but no more treacherous or twisted than those who plotted the assassination of Julius Caesar. But no more twisted than the makers of the Kensington Theater’s offering of William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. It is a tribute to Shakespeare’s art that it took several hundred years for a pro- duction this bad to appear. One of the most credible and con- sistent performances was given by a vul- ture in the opening scene of the play. Like the vulture, Brutus, portrayed by Jason Robards, is consistent—consistently bad. Mr. Robards employed two facial expressions: boredom and constipation. However, his face provided greater vari- ety than his speeches. For example, when the ghost of Caesar appears to Brutus before the final battle, two extra lines appear on his forehead to signify fear. Mr. Robards was outacted not only by a vulture, but by the other principals. He was outdone by several servants and one particularly good white horse. The rest of the cast directed looks of con- sternation, perturbation, and total disgust at Robards, and it is to their credit that they could remember their lines. In comparison to Mr. Robards’ per- formance, the rest of the cast did a fine job. Of special note were the perform- ances of Sir John Gielgud as Caesar, Richard Johnson as Cassius, and Diana Rigg as Portia. They, undoubtedly, read the play before the shooting started. Charlton Heston as Antony did an admi- rable job, especially in speaking the fu- neral oration. So much for the spectacle. Then we looked for the adventure which the mar- quee promised, hoping to find it in the smartly marching lines of Roman sol- diers. The soldiers, usually portrayed in gleaming gold were clad in black pants, leather kilts and painted tea kettles as helmets. As far as costumes go, they don’t go far, especially during the opening credits. when dancing flower girls dropped their flowers and exposed their bosoms. Fol- lowing them in the procession, were a group of male runners, whose costumes were last thought of in the budget con- siderations. On the whole, the costumes were drab. In order to remedy the defects of the film, special effects were added. Among the more notable effects, was Charlton Heston’s body which was effectively dis- played. Also worthy of comment was his armor which included lions apparently devouring his shoulders and an eagle perched on his helmet. The blood allotment for the movie was expanded in the murder scene. There- fore, the final battle scene was devoid of the warm, red liquid. Because of Caesar’s immense loss of blood, his skin took on an immediate grayish-purple pallor. Even worse than the special effects, the greatest injustice of the evening was call- ing the film William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. Mr. Shakespeare, do stop turning. LIFE Literarv Review Keeping in Touch Communication is vital in all commu- nities. Through its five publications, RHC strives for interaction among its members. The weekly newspaper, the ASCENT, under the guidance of Sister Mary McCarrick, presents developments on campus and offers students and faculty an opportunity to react to current issues. The HEIGHTS is the literary maga- zine which publishes the works of stu- dents. HEIGHTS is printed each semes- ter under the supervision of Sister Georgia, moderator, Mary Boule, editor, and Angela Raymond, co-editor. Each school year culminates in the publication of the SUMMIT. The SUM- MIT intends to capture the tenor of the year that has passed. Mrs. Helen W. Newman keeps the fac- ulty informed with campus news in her monthly publication FROM THE HILL. Alumnae are made aware of RHC ac- tivities by the quarterly RESPONSE which is edited by Judy Pepe of the Alumnae Office. The ASCENT. HEIGHTS. SUMMIT, FROM THE HILL, and RESPONSE create the means for communication at RHC. 8
