Memphis World Memphis World Publishing Co. 1960-05-21 Thaddeus T. Stokes ON THE MOVIE MENU Six-foot, 200-pound Woody Strode,, the great Negro athlete, doesn't think it's the least bit unusual to step from the wrestling ring into film stardom. "After all", he says, "they're both show business." Strode plays the pivotal role of a cavalry sergeant accused of rape and murder in Warner "Bros." Sergeant Rutledge", Technicolor suspense drama opening May 25 at the Warner Theatre, which co-stars Jeffrey Hunter, Constance Towers and Billie Burke. Almost overnight, Strode has become one of Hollywood's most sought-after newcomers. He was recently seen as the cowardly soldier in "Pork Chop Hill," and he plays important roles in the forthcoming "Rachel Cade" and "Spartacus." Strode attended the University of California at Los Angeles and was an all-star football end there before turning pro and eventually heading for the professional wrestling circuit. He first won filmland's attention with his memorable performance in "The Ten Commandments." The story of the manner in which he won the assignment in the latter picture is illustrative of the unique approach Strode brings to his acting chores. He had heard that Cecil B. De Mille was looking for someone to play the emotionally-charged role of the mighty King of Ethiopia and had interviewed scores of candidates. Strode arranged for an interview with the late film genius, and was admitted into De Mille's inner sanctum. Making use of his athletic prowess, he crossed the vast distance from the entrance door to the director's desk in no more than a few staggering strides. Only he didn't stop. With a mighty leap he jumped atop the desk. Before De Mille could get his breath he shouted down, in stentorian tones: "I am the King of Ethiopia." The master showman recognized showmanship when he saw it. The talent hunt was at an end. In "Sergeant Rutledge," Strode plays the title role, his most important assignment to date. The picture was directed by John Ford, six-time Academy Award-winner whose screen epics include "Stagecoach," "My Darling Clementine," "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon" and "The Searchers."
