Modern Screen (Dec 1935 - Nov 1936)

The Lady Consents (RKO-Radio) For those who enjoy seeing Ann Harding play her favorite role — the sacrificing wife — there is possibly a full measure of entertainment here. For those who are just a bit tired of watching the gallant ]\Iiss Harding in the process of being "regular" to the point of boredom, let this be fair warning. As in most Harding pictures, the eyes of her screen husband soon fall on this comely lass or that one, and you know what happens. Poor Ann is left holding the sack — bravely, of course — while her erstwhile mate is out having himself a time. To a critical observer it seems that Miss Harding's movie mates start looking around almost before the picture has begun. Perhaps, having seen previous Harding films, they know what is required of them. In tliis case Herbert Marshall is the husband and Margaret Lindsay, following the familiar formula, lures him from home and fireside. After a year or two with her he returns to Miss Harding, who is waiting. Miss Harding is always waiting. A\'alter Abel does what he can in the thankless role of Miss Harding's persistent suitor, and Edward Ellis is excellent as Mr. Marshall's father. Preview Postscripts Though an RKO major production, on which neither time nor expense was to be spared, Director Stephen Roberts was accused of bringing in a "quickie" with this one. He finished the picture ten days ahead of schedule, an unheard of event in movie annals. At least when it does happen, the news seldom leaks out, so great a piece of scandal it is. For the longer a picture is in production, the more the studio pays and pays, and the actors and director get and get. Experienced crew, cost and director were blamed in this case . . . Ann hiarding is making her first trip to Europe any of these days. Besides being a firm believer in "See America First," Miss Harding hasn't hod a minute to call her own since starting her acting career some ten years ago. Between careers and domestic crises, Miss H. has hod her hands full. Everyone but Ann says she'll soon be morrying a Honolulu army man. Bernard Newman designed all those swanky clothes jobs which are sported by the three leading women. Newman is looked upon with owe among stylists of Southern California. They say he's the first to sense a trend in style in this country. Whether that's true or not, the gals go awfully well with Mr. Newman's ideas.
