THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
Friday, May 20, 1966-39
Sallah and his f amily are
shown in the award-winning film
as they arrive in Israel.
* * *
Sallah is coming to town!
Sallah is a movie. For months
there have been long lines waiting
to gain admission to see this award-
winning Israeli film in a New York
theater.
It drew record crowds in Israel
and is gaining acclaim wherever it
is being shown.
Detroiters will have a chance to
see it at the Studio North Theater,
starting June 7.
For three nights—June 7, 8
and 9 — the theater has been
taken over by Cong. Ahav as
Achim.
It is a Hebrew-language film
with English explanatory titles, and
it is a film that will be loved by
young and old. It's a satire. It pic-
tures new arrivals in Israel. It
shows them in the Maabarot as
they await admission to Shikunim.
It has all the aspects of genuine
fun, even when it is poked at the
tree-planting organization, at the
political parties, at the kibbutzim,
at social workers.
What matters is the genuineness
of the fun. It is wholesome. There
is one unreal factor: the Yemenite
is portrayed as unwilling to work.
The contrary is true in Israel where
the Yemenites are among the most
dedicated to their tasks. But in the
film Sallah, the Yemenite charac-
ter—and he is a real character in
the full sense of the term — is
nevertheless a chap who, while
leaving labor to others, refuses
to lie or to cheat or to mislead.
Sallah is played so remark-
ably well by Haym Topol that the
name should be remembered. He
is a new star on the film horizon,
and he has splendid support
from Geula Noni as Sallah's
daughter Habooba, Gila Almogor
who plays the social worker
Bathsheba, and the rest of the
very able cast.
Arik Einstein, Shraga Friedman,
Zaharira Harifai, Nathan Meisler,
Shaika Levi, Esther Greenberg and
Mordecai Arnon play roles that
fit well into this great film, so ably
written and directed by the well
known Israeli humorist, Ephraim
Kishon.
Not only the gags, which make
the film an unending humorous
continuity, but the well motivated
plot make "Sallah" a production to
be reckoned with. Sallah wants a
good home for his family. He fights
to get out of the Maabara. He wants
a Shikun. He thinks the election
pledge assures it for him and his
eight children ---- "five sons, two
daughters and a girl" is the way he
described his and his wife's lot
(his wife had to hide for two weeks
because the last was a girl whom
he named Paula. and not a boy who
was to be named Ben-Gurion) —
and then he resorts to tricks to get
good housing for the large family.
He finally acquires the Shikun.
In the interim there is lots of
fun, and many humorous elements,
like the interesting attire that
depicts realistically the new arri-
vals from a backward country.
Sallah Shabbati, in all his poverty,
is a proud Jew, and - Topol enacts
him with great skill.
It'll be interesting to watch the
reactions to this film and to know
how long a picture whose charac-
ters speak in Hebrew can run in
Detroit. It's as good a foreign film
as has been seen here. Will the
response be what it deserves? It
should be because beginning June
7 Studio North will offer to De-
troiters a very great film.
`Symphony Under Stars'

BARBARA K O R M A N drove
through an intersection just as a
yellow light changed to red, and
was immediately pulled over by a
police officer on a motorcycle .. •
She explained that she had been
afraid to stop suddenly lest some
one hit her . . . The policeman re-
plied emphatically that this Was
no excuse, that no one driving
alertly and at a proper distance
would fail to stop . . . Relieved to
get off with only a warning, Bar-
bara drove very carefully to the
next light . . . When it turned yel-
loy, her abrupt stop was punctu-
ated by a thud from the rear •
There, with motorcycle firm
against the bumper, sat a very
stern, red-faced policeman, who
stared intently at something in the
distance until the light changed.

FIVE-YEAR-OLD Roland Stern,
son of Anne and Oscar Stern, after
being reprimanded for interrupt-
ing, explained, "But I gotta in-
terrupt to get started."

orated automobile on Greenfield

"Just married" . . . Below that

PREPARATIONS for the Oak
Park Fourth of July Parade are in
full swing ... A permanent trophy
for the best float, plus a separate
trophy are being given by David
Weisberg, - president of the Oak
Park Council of Community Or-
ganizations • .. A mystery musical
group composed of "the cream of
the crop" of some of the better
rhythmizers, has been chosen and
named The Cavaliers .. . made up
of Robby Glass, drums, Alan Sol-
oway, organ; Larry Merrick, rhy-
thm guitar, and Leslie Goodman,
lead guitar.

FELLOW CAME INTO Crea-
tions by Ceil flowers on W. 7 Mile
Rd. and ordered a bouquet sent to
his wife for Mothers' Day ... Then
he remembered that she was aller-
gic and canceled the order . . •
Ben and Ceil Stocker sent the
floral arrangement anyway . A
few days later, they received a call
from the gent with loads of thanks
. . . His wife just discovered they
were artificial!

LOIS GREEN PARKED her new
car at a meter downtown and it
was stolen . . . a week later she
got a letter which read. "Your car
is parked at Michigan Central Sta-
tion. It is locked, and you'll find
the key beneath the gas lid. The
car has been carefully broken in.
At no time was it run over 50
m.p.h. The radio is sensitive to the
ticking of the clock. May need at-
tention. Brakes pull too much to
the right. Need adjusting."

WOMAN SAUNTERED INTO
the haberdashery dept. of Steve
Petix Clothier and looked . timidly
about . . . Taking a long-handled
saucepan out of a bag, she asked
Lou Davis for a hat to fit it . . .
Noticing the looks from customers,
she explained, 'My husband just
won't get himself a new hat, and
his old one is so worn I can't make
out the size.But it fits this pan
perfectly."

OVERHEARD . . . by a commun-
