In a charneterization akin "Wolf of Wall Street," George Ban croft first-thumps and thundors his way through the fast-action, dynamic. drama episodes of his newest plcture, "Srandul Sheet," which comes to the King's Theatre...
In "The Wolf of Wall Street," the big bad bruiser of the talkio spaces was rendered dissolute by a schem- ing wife and her clandestine lover. Likewise in "Scandal Sheet" Ban-i croft's love-castles are reduced to a heart-wrecked shambles,
But there the analogy ends-for "Scandal Sheet" is different from any other play Bancroft has ever dominat- ed with his virile vigor.
"Scandal Shoot" shows him as a ruthless managlug editor of a tabloid nowapaper, a killer of reputations, slayer of ideals, a Juggernaut who smothers all In His path, in the name of the great god News. His ergdo is "If it's news it gets printed, no matter whom it hurts."
