CADET SLOUCH by Jim Earle ‘Cleaf' Day* U fitlC shoW
By PAT GRIMES
“On A Clear Day You Can See
Forever" is primarily a showcase
for the diversified talents of Miss
Barbra Streisand.
As a chain-smoker and reincar
nated clairvoyant with extra
sensory perception, Daisy Gamble
(Barbra Streisand) faces the
problem of being “healthy, well-
adjusted” and having “no char
acter.”
She considers herself normal
and is almost completely unaware
of her multiple talents, save for
knowing when the phone will ring
and being able to grow flowers
“fast.”
As Daisy, she seeks the assist
ance of a hypnotist, Dr. Chabot
(Yves Montand) to stop smok
ing. He opens the window of her
past and the musical screenplay
begins in brilliant color.
Flashbacks of one of 144 pre
vious lives interweave a drama
tically sad tale with her present
“go-alonger, little nothingness
life.” She is the Lady Melinda
Tentrees in 1814 one minute and
boring Daisy the next.
A one-sided romance on her
part between she and Chabot de
velops, but is ill fated. The pair
must wait for their Virginia-bas
ed life of love until the year 2038.

Vincente Minnelli, the director,
obviously gave Miss Streisand a
free hand in her character por
trayal. She doesn’t miss a single
camera angle and radiates the
Streisand technique.
Yves Montand surprisingly
sings quite well and his nostalgic
French manner lends to a sensi
tive performance.
A newcomer, John Richardson
as Robert Tentrees, did a very
convincing job as the gigolo. Star
Jack Nicholson of the hit “Five
Easy Pieces,” though in a minor
role deserves mention for an off
beat bit of acting.
Aside from being a rather koo
ky yet sophisticated production
“On A Clear Day . . .” is a fash
ion show for the ladies. Both Miss
Streisand’s current (Arnold Scas-
si) and period (Cecil Beaton) cos
tumes are eye appealing.
The musical is a study in color
and particularly photographic ex
ecution as well as having several
good songs in the offering.
An opening sequence of time
lapse photography by John Ott
is just beautiful.
The entire production will de
light the romanticist and encour
age the mystic.
★ ★ ★
The Circle offers “Monte
Walsh” and “The Cheyenne So
cial Club.”
Lee Marvin as Monte Walsh
plays the last of a dying breed,
the American cowboy.
The story is relatively sad with
painful reminders of an ideal,
but hard, working life.
Marvin is supported by Jeanne
Moreau, giving a touching sensi
tivity to the saloon hooker’s role,
and Jack Palance. His charac
ter’s transition to civilization is
a heartfelt downfall to Monte.
Monte, is left with his memo
ries, a lock of auburn hair and his
faithful horse.
The musical score by John Bar
ry of “Born Free” fame was a
high point for the film and partly
made up for the bad screen light
ing that plaques the Circle.
The two stalwarts, Henry Fon
da and James Stewart, made “The
Cheyenne Social Club” an en
joyable western experience.
It’s funny, light-hearted enter
tainment and rated G for a
change.
