NOW YOU'RE TALKING^ recognition of outstanding perform >^ mce on the talking screen, this y^^^^ magazine hereby extends hearty congratulations to: who, in Show Girl in Hollywood, retains her unique personality when Hollywood is all too ready to be something with an English accent. Gary Cooper, for his ability, in Only the Brave, to invest the character he portrays with just enough satire to make it a brilliant and fascinating study. Alice White, Chester Morris, whose pathos, in The Case of Sergeant Grischa, overcomes the obstacles of an unsightly beard and a drab story, with amazing power. Norma Shearer, who proves, in The Divorcee, that she has a peculiar ability to portray roles calling for smoothness, smartness and sophistication. Joe E. Brown, who makes Song of the West a splendid entertainment by his amusing antics and also by his remarkable ability to convey pathos without being in the least sentimental and cloying — no mean achievement. 27
