CLITTERHOUSE (Warners) ■ Here is a fine, challenging idea, with a new plot that puts the film into the super-chase and thriller class among gentleman-crook dramas. Clitterhouse (Edward G. Robinson) is a doctor with an extensive practise among the wealthy. But his real interest is his book upon crime. In order to gather material for it, he has been planning and executing a series of perfect burglaries, and testing himself for nervous and emotional reactions, before and after. Feeling in need of a wider field for investigation, he manages, with some difficulty, to become a member of a gang. He directs their activities on an enormous scale, but insists upon listening to hearts and taking other tests, right in the middle of the wholesale looting of a fur warehouse. It's fine! Especially when Slapsie Maxie Rosenbloom, Humphrey Bogart, Allen Jenkins and Bert Hanlon as the gangsters get all baffled and irritated by having their blood pressure taken all the time. Claire Trevor makes a satisfactorily tough mob leader. Edward G. Robinson is not very convincing as a disinterested scientist, after all these years of being "Little Caesar", but the story is unflaggingly interesting and'the finale is a complete surprise. HAVING WONDERFUL TIME (Radio) B A lot of us like nothing better than to see Ginger Rogers dance. A lot of us think that she puts over a song in fine fashion. So a lot of us will be disinclined to write no more than "Having a fair to middling time" when we are seeing her newest picture. It is a pleasant enough little drama, but it does seem like an oversight to leave dancing out of a Ginger Rogers film. The story deals with a stenographer who goes for her vacation to the romping uproar of Kamp Karefree to get a complete rest. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., plays the romantic lead and featured in the cast are Lucille Ball, Peggy Conklin, Lee Bowman, Red Skelton and Donald Meek. COWBOY FROM BROOKLYN (Warners) B Jordon had two ambitions in life. One was to make a success of his banjo playing. The other was to keep away from animals. Jordon (Dick Powell) was scared stiff of all of our four-leggedfriends . . . any kind from a cat to a cow. While Brooklyn was comparatively free from animal life, it offered no encouragement to his musical ambitions, so Jordon set out for the west as a non-paying guest of an unsuspecting railroad. When he was tossed off at the gate of a dude ranch, things began to happen. For one thing, Jane (Priscilla Lane) decided that he was her man, even though he did beat a frantic retreat every time a calf or a dog or even a chicken showed up. For another, a booking agent arrived for a complete rest, heard one warble from the Brooklyn cowboy, and, convinced that he had discovered a genuine hill-billy at last, hustled him aboard the next train for New York. Pat O'Brien makes this part a very funny caricature of a high pressure theatre man. The finale is unexpected and very funny when the phony cowboy has the choice of bull-dogging a very angry steer in a rodeo or being exposed as a fake. ALGIERS (United Artists) ■ Probably the most important thing about this film is the introduction of Hedy LaMarr who is extremely pretty and seems to be a talented actress with an extraordinary appeal. For the rest, it is pretty much a good old cops and robbers chase, very handsomely mounted and photographed and brilliantly cast. Charles Boyer plays Pepe Le Moko, jewel thief, who is safe to direct the activities of his henchmen so long as he stays in the grim native quarter of Algiers where the police do not dare to venture. The drama depends upon his sudden, passionate infatuation for a French sightseer, and his evasion of the various traps set to lure him out of his stronghold by the not quite wily enough police. Gene Lockhart is sure to get much admiring comment for his part of a rabbithearted informer. Alan Hale adds another colorful characterization to his long list as a receiver of stolen goods. Joseph Calleia does a fine, oily police agent. Sigrid Gurie is effective as a native girl. SHOPWORN ANGEL (M-G-M) H Daisy was tough and cynical and beautiful. Daisy had been through the mill, and one cannot help suspecting that it hurt the mill more than it did Daisy. Daisy could take it. When the war started, Daisy was doing nicely with the star part in a Broadway show, and the devotion, apartment and car of the show's backer. Daisy wasn't interested in the war or anyone in it. Any guy making $30 a month simply wasn't Daisy's sort. Then a gangling, innocent, idealistic boy from the cow country came along. Even the fine emotional equipment of Miss Margaret Sullavan fails to make Daisy's subsequent mental processes quite understandable. There she is, madly in love with the nice charming producer (Walter Pidgeon) who loves and understands her, but, just because the cowboy (James Stewart) thinks she is an angel, she feels that she should marry him and send him off to war happy. The film is played intensely, and is absorbing while it lasts, but when it is over 12 Nationally Advertised Brands Are Your Assurance of Value and Protection
