"YOUNG DR. KILDARE", the first Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production to bow into New York via Radio City Music Hall screen, is a product worthy of both its studio and the theatre." v ^ r> •.■ « nuiuviEuir Kate Cameron — N.Y. DAILY NEWS "The Radio City Music Hall, ordinarily dedicated to the presentation of the most stupendously elaborate, this week presents a refreshingly modest and winning story. In its simple humanity the film packs its strongest appeal. 'YOUNG DR. KILDARE' captures your interest and holds it." Bland Johaneson — N.Y. DAILY MIRROR "So admirably turned out, so expertly are the story, direction and acting woven together, that 'YOUNG DR. KILDARE' rises far and becomes the first M-G-M picture ever to have been booked into the Radio City Music U 11 !» Leo Mishhin — N.Y. MORNING TELEGRAPH "Credit it, too, with cementing the comeback of Lew Ayres. 'YOUNG DR. KILDARE' has refreshing simplicity of story, honesty of characterization and naturalness of presentation." t-. , c x, . , „ ,,.,_,. Frank S. Nugent — N.Y. TIMES "Leo, the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer lion, growled for the first time from the screen of the Radio City Music Hall yesterday and a healthy growl it was. Leo may well count his debut a success." Herbert Cohn — BROOKLYN "Encouraged by the success of its 'Judge Hardy' pictures, M-G-M is launching another film series. The first opened yesterday at the Radio City Music Hall and, judging by the initial entry, the series should become a popular one. Like the films in the Hardy list, 'YOUNG DR. KILDARE is warmly, likeably human." Roge peiSM)icjc_NY. JOURNAL AND AMERICAN "The Music Hall film, first M-G-M production to run at the great theatre, tells of people whom you would like to know and whom maybe you do know, of the real life of America. There is word from Hollywood that this may be the first of a series like the Hardy family. That is good word. The movies could stand a good many more people like Dr. Kildare and his friends." Eileen Creelman — N.Y. SUN " 'YOUNG DR. KILDARE' at the Music Hall is as entertaining and pleasant a film as you will see in a month of looking. In fact, if the same people make the next one, this department will positively look forward to it." Archer Winsten— N.Y. EVE. POST
