William McCrum writes that in "Asphalt Jungle" Huston "..couldn't get him (Rozsa) tranquilised enough, though Alain Resnais managed it later in 'Providence'.
Alain Resnais managed to get me pretty tranquilized, too.
I have never understood the great esteem in which this film is held. It featured a rare bad performance by John Gielgud - he simply could not manage to convince, at the end, as a family man. He was concerned the role was too "butch" for him, and I'm sorry to say, contrary to the assurances of his colleagues and friends, it was.
Speaking of Sol Kaplan, I saw, two nights ago, at a revival house in NYC, "I Can Get it for You Wholesale,"
from a Jerome Weidman novel about the garment center. It starred those prototypical New York Jewish types Dan Dailey, Susan Hayward, and George Sanders. Although the score had its share of cliches - and could have used some tranquilizing, too - there were fleeting moments when I thought Kaplan was on target. I have always enjoyed his title music to "Titanic."
