"OUR TOWN"
Sir,-I should just like to tell you how very much "G.M.’s" remarks on the film Our Town were appreciated by myself and two companions, as, having read numerous critics unanimous in their praise of Our Town, we went eagerly to see this long-looked-forward-to production. Needless to say, we came away from the theatre disgusted, infuriated and incredulous that some person equipped with scissors and evidently very little intelligence should . be ~ allowed to wreak such havoc with so outstanding a screenplay, as the few scenes which we were permitted to see so clearly revealed. At the time this film was screening, I heard of no other complaints, so was quite overjoyed to find that there was someone else who felt the same way about Our Town. May I say in closing that, however acute the paper shortage may become, I hope you will always manage to squeeze in a space for your film reviews.
