PAGE TWO allons au cinema Cry Along s ° igoir By VINCE YOUNG Collegian Reviewer The camera scans the Parisian horizon for a minute, then tilts downward and follows a cat scampering down an alleyway into some dark mid dingy basement. INSIDE, the cat leaps upon a colossal bulge on a bed. The bulge stirs. Two massive hands reach upward toward the sky, and a billowing mass of protoplasm rises and yawns. What is it? The Collosus of Rhodes, a tame ele phant, or three people glued to gether? No, it's Gigot! Yes, it's "Gigot." It stars ,Jackie Gleason, was based upon an idea by ,Jackie Gleason, and has a music score written by Jackie Gleason, and if Charlie Chaplin had never made a film, "Gigot" Wouldn't no around today.

Even though the little man's shuffle has been replaced by the big man's waddle, it still has that magic combination of sadness, humor and irony that made Chaplin a legend in his own time. Gigot is a retarded mute work ing as a janitor in the slums of Paris in the early 20's. He be friends a charming six-year old girl and her not-so-c harming mother. He desperately tries to keep them in his downtown flat, and when the mother decides to walk out, he reluctantly steals money from the neighborhood bakery, later nearly drowns in a river and gets to watch his own mock funeral. A LOT of celluloid has been through the projector since such an all out attack on the lachry mose glands has been performed. Also, some of the situations are about as sticky sweet and gooey as a twelve-ton marshmallow. But fortunately, most of the film's rowdy farcial moments overshadow this main fault in a generally delightful and senti mental comedy. Around the corner, Tony Curtis in "40 Pounds of Trouble" seems to be apologizing for his perform ance in last week's Cossack horse show, "Tarns Bulba," in which he showed how much nature never intended him to act in anything else by com e d ie s. "Trouble" doesn't make too much sense, but the gags come so rapidly that nobody seems to care. It's now a truism that the wider the screen the more meanings the wise cracks assume.
