Of Tightrope r Rev the for night patrol r Lom hour  Samo Brewster s millions pm protocol bad form sad humor by Christopher Wienandt staff writer  Goldir  thought she was following in the tradition of Frank Capra s or. Smith goes to Washington when she made protocol. She certainly tried. But what became classic Cinema in 1939 does t transplant Well to the 1980s, and the naive idealism of Jimmy Stewart s or. Smith rings faintly false in the character of hawn s cocktail Kostoss turned Diplomat. The premise of the film is Vintage hawn. Sunny who serves drinks at a Sleazy Washington bar accidentally prevents the assassination of a visiting dignitary Richard Romanus from a tiny but strategic Middle East emirate. He informs the state department that  wants to marry her and a corps of corrupt . Diplomats headed by the Smirky mrs. St. John Gail Stricklan arranges to make her a special emissary and marry her off without her knowledge. But the not As dumb As she acts sunny figures the scam out and turns the tables on the baddies in what hawn evidently considers hilarious fashion. The problem is that nothing in the film is ignited by the spark of imagination nothing is fresh or inspired. At any Point the film could be stopped and any member of the audience could predict what would happen next. The set of characters reeking of Mothballs does nothing to improve the1 situation. Consider the crusty but lovable bar owner Kenneth Mars. His hard boiled waitresses who have the predictable hearts of Gold. The oily conniving bureaucrat and a corps of corrupt henchmen. The naive but sincere sunny and her doubly naive but sincere parents. And the bureaucrat s formerly corrupt underling Chris Sarandon who comes to his moral senses and Falls in love with sunny. It s strictly film making by formula. Take character place in situation band wait for reaction c. And in the end d everything turns out All right e and our heroine lives happily Ever after saving the United states from moral rot cd. It s almost enough to make one suspect the film had sprung to the screen through an unfortunate Lime Warp. The audience outgrew this Type of plot and characterization 20 years ago and hawn has t come off Well As the dumb blonde since laugh in went off the air. The problem is not that this is a dumb film though it is dumb films Are made every Day and some of them Are quite enjoyable. But protocol sets High standards for itself and fails to achieve them. It in to to Coin a phrase All that it can be. Protocol tries to be an inspiration to patriotism As Well As a romantic comedy. But sunny s lecture to a congressional committee on the subject of i am we the people " is a tedious embarrassment. The film does have something to recommend it though its merciless criticism of news hounds. Sunny rightly becomes a National heroine after thwarting the assassination attempt. But enough is not enough. She appears on the cover of time. Of life. Of the National inquirer. Coverage passes the stage of news. Heroine becomes celebrity. Reporting becomes Media mania. This snide portrait of the news Industry is protocol s saving Grace. It s fast paced funny and probably closer to the truth than most reporters would care to admit. Hawn and Crew would have been better off if they had made this their focus. Protocol is on the cafes film circuit and is available on videotape. We King David 13 the.
