THE GREEN GLOVE
(United Artists) ‘THE theft of a jewel-studded gauntlet from the altar of a church in the south of France is the reason for this melodramatic chase, with Glenn Ford, a former American paratrooper, as the pursued, and George Macready, a greedy art-dealer, the pursuer. Also on hand are Sir Cedric Hardwicke as the village priest, and Geraldine Brooks as an American girl who becomes accidentally involved in the. affair. Because of the flashback technique used there is a good deal of confusion throughout the film as to what is really going on. When the gauntlet is miraculously restored to its proper place by a modest Glenn Ford, who fades promptly from the scene so that the priest and villagers can’t overwhelm him with their gratitude, we are left wondering whether all the mystery was worth concocting in the first place.
