The gamecock. (Columbia, S.C.) 1908-2006, April 05, 1968, Page Page Three, Image 3
Having fled the emerging spring
of South Carolina to the snowy
steppes of the midwest last week
end, we were unable to have a
column gestated by deadline. So to
both of you who did miss this fea
ture, our apologies. We might add
in passing that the Kahiki Club in
Columbus, Ohio, features excellent
atmosphere and cuisine, to say
nothing of the waitresses, who
speak impeccable Japanese.
All periphery aside, we rejoiced
to return to the Palmetto State,
where there was still some credita
ble entertainment fare to be found.
FLKS:
While we would be the last to
claim that the Fox neater in Co..
lumbia has a corner on the most
digestible film diet locally, we have
noticed a trend toward more ex
perimental and advant-garde feat
tures there.
As a case in point, the box-office
disaster which played there this
week, while admittedly off-beat,
had some strong redeeming points.
Director Richard Lerner, in cast
ing a predominantly u n k n o w n
group of actors to play on an emo
tionally vulnerable theme, should
at least be complimented on his
attempt, although the picture did
lack continuity and, occasionally,
coherence.
'111s week, Sandy Detnis' new
est effort, "Sweet November," will
face Columbians with an even
more devastating, if more subtle,
shock than did "The Graduate."
rhe plot revolves around Miss
Dennis' patently nonconformistic
habit of taking in male boarders
for a month of "therapy." While
laying itself open to psychoanalytic
criticism regarding the capsulized
period of the treatment, the film
Easter Drai
By Religious
"The Way of the Cross," a
modern religious drama by Henry
Gheon, will be presented Wednes
(lay at 6:30 p.m. at the Baptist
Student Center.
The prodluction will be presented
by the Serampore Players, a tour
ing drama group from William
Carey College in Hattiesburg, Miss.
It is sponsored by the Carolina
Student Religious Association.
Gheon's play is interpreted as a
depiction of all men's guilt in the
everybody rejection andi denial of
Christ.
Costu mes are such that the
action of the play seems without
time or place, adding to the effect
of tying today's generation with
that of almost 2,000 years ago.
The Serampore Players are on

Anthony Newly, as the adjust
ment-case for November, turns in
an adequate performance, while
Sandy is almost too fragile to be
true. She had a tendency to remind
us of more than one completely
idealistic and totally unrealistic
girl of our acquaintance.
As the reels tum, it becomes
apparent that landlord and renter
are becoming ensnared in the
young romance syndrome, which
is, of course, completely incom
patible with the former's Weltans
chanuen. This presents something
of a classic dilemma, which, we are
pleased to report, in resolved in
the least offensive manner possi
ble.
Capsule Opinion: A definitely
unique film, which derives its
greatest strength from its very
uniqueness. Spend your money.
ON STAGE:
Capital Cabana's Pirates' Cove
this week features the unpolished
but enthusiastic singing of one
Roni Powers. What with the new
kitchen there and the adequate
accompainment of Johnny Helms
et al., this could be a good bet for
the weekend.
N(YTES ON A SHABBY CUIFF
The word has it that Joan Baez
is skedded for a one-nighter at
Township Auditorium in the com
ing week. If she hasn't made a
re-fical change in her act since
last we saw her, don't plan on
wasting your time.
The message that filters up to
us from the Coronet Motel is that
the new singer they hired for
Circus Room vocal chores has
worked out even better than ex
pected. More than worth the short
drive.
We'll see you . . . On The Town.
