Flight to the West a faltering stage study of a Nazi plot
Broadway review finds Elmer Rice's Flight to the West gripping in premise but flawed in execution. Strong acting by Lydia St Clair, Betty Field, Hugh Marlowe, and Karl Malden cannot fully redeem the melodramatic structure and overstatement of the immediacy of Nazism. The piece suggests a superior motion picture potential.
