‘POSTMAN }X\IRXE, ALWAYS RINGS TWICE‘ The gusty musical, one that goes in heavily for action, is a salute to the waitresses who helped to push the Harvey chain westward with the exâ€" pansion of the U.S.A., and its railâ€" road empire. Judy Garland, Ohio gal stranded in a New Mexico town when a letterâ€" pursued romance with Chill Wills turns out to be a gag, becomes one of their number with the establishment of* a new restaurant in an atmosphere of fire and brimstone common to the west of the 1890‘s. Among significant cinema developâ€" ment of 1946 is the return of the Marx Brothers â€"â€"â€" Groucho, Harpo and Chico â€"â€" to the screen with thetr new comedy, "A Night In Casablanca." which comes to the Broadway Thceatre on Saturday. It has been four years since the mad Marxes performed their inimitable an= tics for cameras. At that time they finished their eleventh picture, with Groucho making his oftâ€"quoted grouse: "We‘re tired of making the same story over and over againâ€"even if ‘(it is The Marxes subsequently and firmly refused all offers to work before camerasâ€"collectively and individually. They made it clear that they wou‘d resume only when they could make pictures according to the dictates of their own experience as top enterâ€" tairers for many vears, and not to meet a release date. Movieâ€"goers are assured pleasant fare at the ‘Oartier on Monday and Tuesday, when Judy Garland and John Hodiak appear in ‘The Harvey Girls", in technicolor. "A Night in Casablanca," the Marxes‘ uproariously funny new farceâ€"comedy, is the answer,. To make it, the Marxes associated themselves with Producer David L. Loew and arranged for a United Artists release. Then, with meticulous care, the Marxes and Proâ€" ducer Loew joined hards in transâ€" ferring "A Night in Casablanca‘" from an idea into a completed picture. Rarely, if ever, has a picture been given such minute, studied attention in its preparatory stages. After virtually a year in preparation and filming, there‘s no doubt at all that the Marxes have another sureâ€"fire hit on their hands.
