Disney's

'Winnie,

A Poohperfect Classic

THEATRE
Chiidren's Play: Adult Approach

By JAMES SCHUTZE
Those persons, who neglect to
see Disney's "Winnie the Pooh"
while it is playing at the State
Theatre will be depriving them-
selves of one of the few diverting
experiences to come out of Holly-
wood in the last seventy-eight
years.
Disney compiled chapters one
and two of A. A. Milne's book.
("In Which We Are Introduced
To Winnie The Pooh And Some
Bees And The Stories Begin," and
"In Which Pooh Goes Visiting And
Gets Into A Tight Place"), meld-
ing the two story lines together for
forty minutes of absorbing drama.
We all know the story of Pooh's
cheerfully glutinous appetite for
honey and the trouble it often
brought to him. The movie treats
in detail Pooh's scandalous raid
on the Honey Tree in which he
ascends to the hive clutching a
blue balloon aftet. rolling in the

Muddy Place to disguise himself
as a black cloud. The desperate
tension which grips Pooh when the
bees first grow suspicious of his
improbable presence sears across
the screen with crackling intensity
when Pooh attempts to bolster his;
faltering desception by singing,
"How sweet to be a cloud,
Floating in the blue!
Every little Cloud
Always sings aloud."
Pooh's subsequent misfortune at
the hands of the undeluded bees
leads the movie into a reenactment
of the tragic accident which befell,
him while visiting Rabbit's under-
ground house. Readers will re-
member that Pooh so shamelessly
gorged himself on the eternally
hospitable Rabbit's honey that he
got stuck on his way back up to
the surface, exposing only his un-
smiling sticky face to the out of
doors. The sequence, though some-
what drawn out by director Wolf-

gang Reitherman, is an accurate
and entertaining reconstruction of
the actual event as it happened in
1933.
Reitherman, in general, does
not distinguish himself in this
film. His choice of the Hundred
Acre Forest location for the shoot-
ing would have been perfect had
he included more shots of the
forest itself and less of Rabbit's
unprepossessing domicile. In the
future, Reitherman would probably
do better to address himself chief-
ly to television documentaries and
singing.- commercials rather than
animated drama. His one saving
grace in this instance, however,
was an uncanny sense of casting.
Winnie the Pooh, leads the cast
with a disarmingly personal por-
trayal of himself. He delivers his
terse lines withthe sort of breezy
self-confidence and nonchalance
which thoroughly delights a
youthful audience.t His feeling for

the role of Pooh is established
almost immediately when he opens
the movie with a soliloquy deliver-
ed before his mirror explaining
that he is "rumbly in the tumbly."
His ability carries him successfully
to the movie's end with only one
slight (and forgiveable) article
transgression, an unnecessary and
unkind aside in which he re-
marks with nose in air, that the
gohper, a bit player, was not in
the book.
Fine performances were also
turned in by Kanga, Roo, Rabbit,
Eeyore, Owl, and Piglet. Perhaps
the only actor who did not earn
praise was Christopher Robin,
who played his part with a bored
detachment which may suggest
that he is outgrowing the role and
knows it.
Eeyore, the permanently de=
pressed don0 y of. the forest,
brought tears to the hearts of the
entire audience when he explained

dolefully that he missed his acci-
dentally misplaced tail not for its
beauty alone but, "because I was
attached to it."
The reader must be warned that
this particular treatment of Pooh's
tale was designed specifically for
the tastes of little boys who won't
stay in their seats and little girls
who laugh at all the jokes. The
dark underlying psychological ten-
sion of A. A. Milne's book is not
reproduced in any form in this
film, probably because the cast
saw no point in dragging it all out
in public again.
And perhaps that is all for the
best. There can be no real justifi-
cation for obliging Pooh and com-
pany to go to a lot of extra trouble
merely for the amusement of bored
psychology students. And as the
little girl sitting with her father
in front of this reviewer summed
up afterward, "That was a fun
movie."

By BETSY COHN
".Dick and Jane Eat Goose-
berries" seems to have lost its
appeal to the sophisticated chil-
dren of today. In theater, as in
everything else, they are looking
for "substance."
The University Players and the
speech department, provide for
both: sophisticated youngdaudi-
ences and substance through the
combined efforts of Michael Har-
rah, a teaching fellow in the
speech department and Margaret
McKerrow, director of Players'
Children's Theatre.
Together, they have turned out
a libretto for a new musical,
"Pierre Pathelin," for which Roger
Wertenberger, a former student of
the school of music, has written
the music. Put all together--they
have come up with a show for
children which takes an adult
approach.
Pierre (David-Rhys Anderson)
is a lawyer, so clever that no one
will hire him. In an effort to
clothe himself and" his wife re-
spectably, Pierre must connive to
get clothes from the Draper (Ken-
neth Chomont). This infuriates
the draper who is already un-
happy because he believes that his
shepherd has stolen some sheep.
The result is that Pierre defends
the Shepherd (Alan Heminger) in
court and the Draper becomes
totally confused between the sheep
he lost to the Shepherd and the
cloth he lost to Pierre. Pierre loses

money after being cheated by the
sly shepherd, and the bright eyed
rosy cheeked audience is smacked
firmly in the face with the moral'
that honesty pays while crooked
Shepherds don't.
The original "Pierre Pathelin"
is an old French farce, written
around 1200 A.D. For 700 years
"Pierre" had been considered an
adult play, now the Harrah-

McKorrow team has transformed
it to a delightful comedy, complete
with music and substance.
"Pierre Pathelin" is itself a
milestone for children's threare
as the first musical the children's
theater has performed.
The last performance of this
comedy-farce will be this after-
noon in Trueblood Auditorium at
'2 p.m.
