Be Good — So Many Imitate It
SURRENDER — Universal
THE
WHIRLWIND OF YOUTH— Paramount
UNIVERSAL and Director Edward Sloman deserve congratulations on their courage in filming this solemnly beautiful portrayal of Jewish life. The story, of a Rabbi's daughter who sacrifices herself to save her people, due to its almost reverent treatment, emerges a tensely realistic portrait of racial conflict. Ivan Mosjukine is an interesting prince. Mary Philbin and Nigel deBrulier give performancesyou must not miss.
THE screen version of A. Hamilton Gibb's popular novel, "Soundings," will be a disappointment to its readers. But those who haven't read it will find this a really fine picture. Lois Moran gives a splendid performance as a young girl budding into womanhood. She falls in love with a young philanderer and not until we reach the war episode does the hero become a noble character. We're quite sure you'll like it.
SERVICE FOR LADIES —Paramount
A MILLION BID— Warner Bros.
AN amusing little story in which Adolphe Menjou is again a waiter. This time he's Albert, the best head waiter on the Continent. Life is caviar to Albert until Miss Foster of America strolls along and they get all involved in love and the caste system. Don't expect to see another "Grand Duchess and the Waiter." Nevertheless it's a light and frothy sister who can be depended upon to add mild gaiety to a quiet evening.
YOU know the story about the gal who was offered to the highest bidder and the struggling doctor who is shoved in the background for future use. Michael Curtiz, the director, is a hound for camera angles and, between the weepy yarn and the angular photography, one becomes groggy. Dolores Costello, Malcolm McGregor and Warner Oland at least give credible performances.
THE SUNSET DERBY— First National
SILVER COMES THRU— F. B. O.
"D USTER COLLIER is a very famous jockey who is seriously ■L'injured while riding Mary Astor's horse. When he again returns to the saddle he is afflicted with cold feet. Mary's papa is in desperate straits for money so Queenie must win the derby. Collier fights his cowardice very dramatically and wins the race and Mary's love. Not the least bit exciting — not even the race. Buster Collier does some terrible actine.
A REAL good entertaining Fred Thomson vehicle. Sure, Silver King's in this one, too. Fred protects Silver when he's a young colt from the attacks of a wildcat. They become great pals and Silver shows his loyalty by winning the cross country race, in spite of all the handicaps, so that Fred may appear as a glorified hero in the eyes of a certain little blonde lady. We'll guarantee this one. [ cont'd on page 104 ]
