THE GLASS WEB
(Universal-International) N The Glass Web Jack Arnold has made a crisp, suspenseful thriller which is all the more interesting because its plot is tied up with a television programme and quite a bit of it is shot in and around a television studio. The scriptwriter (John Forsythe) and a sort of assistant producer (Edward G. Robison) of "Crime of the Week," both get ogttached to an _ actress (Kathleen Hughes), who blackmails one and spurns the other’s love just before she is found murdered. To make things even more difficult her estranged husband also is in the neighbourhood about that time. Mr. Robinson, who is a keen but rather ineffectual little man, has, the — bright idea that the crime will make a good subject for their series, which it does indeed. For the sort of film that can often get by with no more than average acting, The Glass Web comes up with | some above-average performances.
