86 The Filmgoers' Annual I 1 i THE YANKEE AT KING ARTHUR'S COURT 9 I . THOSE who remember the silent film of Mark Twain's world-famous comedy will welcome with joy the prospect of seeing the one and only Will Rogers (who gets the whole of page 104 to himself because it is a good page and he deserves it) in " The Yankee at King Arthur's Court," in its new talking picture translation. This, if you like, is the perfect star in the perfect story. But even Will Rogers needs a supporting cast, and here we have a good one, including William Larnum, Myrna Loy, Frank Albertson, and Maureen O'Sullivan. In our pictures you can see this film in brief. Will Rogers as Hank, the Yank, is dragged before King Arthur, but he is a pushing lad, and, soon, displaying his calves (as he is entitled to do, since he played in " The Follies ") he is O.K. or Jake with Queen Morgan Le Fay, and presently, as an armour-plated knight, he is hoisted on horseback as befits Sir Boss. And we give you, for good measure, on our left, Maureen O'Sullivan, the little Irish girl who has captured Hollywood, and on our right, the lovely Myrna Loy without whom it seems no first-rate film is complete.
