BRATTLE: through tomorrow: Rosemary, the story of a West German tart who takes an unusual interest in her client's lives. Stars Nadja Tiller and Curt Jurgens. Starts Sunday: Ingmar Bergman's early (1952) episodic comedy, Secrets of Women, is funny indeed. It stars the usual Bergman repertoire--Eva Dahlbeck, Anita Bjork, Gunnar Bjornstrand, et al. TR 6-4226.
UNIVERSITY: The UT will be closed for alterations until December.
BOSTON
FENWAY: Still holding forth is Michelangelo Antonioni's lengthy but carefully turned tale of aristocratic decadence at a Sicilian party, L'Avventura. KE 6-0601.
GARY: The show that everybody thought was doomed from the start has come through in fine form. West Side Story maintains all the pace, punch, and color of the Leonard Bernstein-Jerome Robbins Broadway original. Stars Richard Beymer and Natalie Wood.
METROPOLITAN: The Hustler is Paul Newman, and his target is a ponderous pool king named Minnesota Fats. Thumbs are broken and courage tried, but in the end Newman gets his man. Jackie Gleason turns in a surprise performance as the cue, ace, and Newman, who can act drunk better than anyone else in Hollywood, is perfect as a man who lives only from one minute to the next.
EXETER: Purple Noon continues to be the best thriller, imported or otherwise, in town at the moment. Rene Clement is responsible for this tightly-plotted piece about a man (Alain Delon) who kills his best friend for his bankroll and broad.
TELEPIX: The Crime of M. Lange, a charming flick from one of France's masters, Jean Renoir, tells of an idealistic writer who gives his publisher some of his own medicine.
KENMORE: Two Women stars Sophia Loren in the best and only acting performance of her career--portraying a mother who flees with her daughter to the mountains during the Italian Campaign of World War II, and returns too soon. Its rape scene outdoes Bergman, and is perhaps as stark as anything filmed.
