MEDFORD 'Irma la Douce' Is Appealing, But Fails To Reach the Heart Parents, don't take the kid dies to see the Holly theater's current offering, "I r m a la Douce." But you might have fun going by yourself. We wouldn't guarantee it, but you might. The film, being offered to the public at roadshow prices, probably ought to be better, or at least funnier, than it is. It has all the ingredients for a rollicking good time: a Paris setting, a racy script, vivid technicolor on a wide screen, and two box office champions, Shirley MacLaine and Jack Lemmon. The advertisement bills it as "a story of passion, blood shed, desire and death . . . everything, in fact, that makes life worth living." None In Picture But you know how ad men are. There is no passion, no bloodshed, no desire and no death, so help us, in the whole picture. It's just another case of "poetic license" on the part of the studio flacks. Anyway, the picture has to do with a pragmatic street walker named Irma (la douce is a nickname meaning "the sweet"), who for $5 is willing to cheer almost anyone's lone ly hour. Her "office" is located tn the Casanova hotel near the wholesale food market in Paris, and across the street from a bar-restaurant where the guys and dolls congregate. Lemmon plays a sincere, naive sort of fellow (about as un-French as he could be) who gets busted from the Paris police force only to end up, after a pretty funny fight, as Irma's "manager." False Identity Tha trouble is that he falls in love with her and begins to scheme and plot lo run himself out of business. He attempts to accomplish this unwonted feat by assuming a false identity a teeth-showing, guffawing "Lord X" who with a borrowed bank roll easily monopolizes Irma's trade. Predictably, the double identity gimmick breaks down, however. The lov- Servicemen IN FIELD TRAINING Cadet Galen C. Roberson, son of Mr. and Mrs. McKen- zie E.

Zut! What to do? It doesn't really matter. As with all thinly plotted com edies, the audience is comfort ably certain from the first scene that whatever messes the principals get themselves into, somehow everything will turn out happily in the end. Was Musical Comedy Broadway's "Irma la Douce" was a musical com edy, and some of its show tunes are among the most ten der, wistful and altogether charming songs we've ever heard. But Hollywood's "Irma la Douce" is a straight in-Scine comedy (the music is only used for background) and while there is appeal galore to the eye, nothing about it comes even close to reaching the heart. With the notable exception of some Bardot-like scenes of MacLaine in various stages of undress, the film is lack ing in anything "that makes life worth living." It takes a lot of Gaul to make a good French comedy. But, in this somewhat' self- conscious production, Irma s toy poodle is put outside the first night so it would be spared the sight of what went on behind the closed door. G.H.B.
