...scenes are the revue's worst.) The last scene in Act I--a spoof of Gordon Linden--and the three numbers at the end of the show are also successful. "Paradise Permanently Lost," in which an American an Italian, and a Swede try to make a movie out of Milton's work, is particularly fine stuff. The American director, whose girl Friday is aptly named Beth Noir, persists in calling the poet "Jack" Milton, and there are other deft touches...

Producer Powell has scored triumphs of surprise casting: Mickey Rooney in a superb portrayal of a lonely seaman in Somebody's Waiting, Milton Berle as a blackjack dealer in Doyle Against the House, Jack Carson as a beatnik in Who Killed Julie Greer? Under the subtle direction of Ralph Nelson, Four Star's Three Soldiers (about mercenaries) was one of the outstanding dramatic productions of the autumn, recalling the somewhat golden days...
