James Mason
In Role of Angel k
‘Forever Darling’
A few weeks after announcing
hris “retirement” from acting,
James Mason began his co-star
ring role with Lucille Ball and
Desi Amaz in “Forever Darling,”
showing Friday and Saturday at
the Nomerama, in which he plays
an angel, a role not even his most
ardent fans could describe as type
casting.
“Perhaps, after my portrayal of
this ethereal gentleman, some of
my more rebellious screen char
acterizations may fade into the
background,” he says.
A star of 52 pictures, 17 of
them made in Hollywood, Mason
and his good looks have been
identified with less sanctified
characters, if not out-and-out vil
lains. This doesn’t bother him.
“Heroes are apt to be a little
pale,” he observes.
However, there is nothing pale
about Mr. Mason, even as an an
gel. In “Forever Darling” he is a
well-dressed, sophisticated and
decidedly off-beat angel. He de
livers a lecture on love to Lucille
Ball, espouses the cause of matri
mony, goes in for some clowning,
walks in and out of closed doors
and windows, and in general has
a good time.
