Title: John Barrymore's monument
Review: One of the biographers of John Barrymore says that he felt himself miscast here. But he was the only possible choice, and he makes a direct hit. At a time when Hitler was just coming to power, would a real Jewish actor really be able to elicit as much sympathy from a middle-American audience outside of New York City for a high-powered Jewish lawyer desperately seeking acceptance into Gentile society? Mr. Barrymore seems to bring all parts of himself to the role -- his own neglected street-kid background, his sense of failing in his career, his anxieties, insecurities and deep compassion for others -- in a subtle, nuanced and very modern performance at a time when actors and directors still relied upon silent-movie histrionics and still didn't seem to feel comfortable with the presence of the microphone. For all of us who never got the chance to see him as the greatest Richard III and Hamlet of his era, this film can stand as John Barrymore's monument.
