THE WOMAN ACCUSED (Paramount) Ten of the best writers in the country put their heads together and brought out this prize story in Liberty. Each writer, as you will remember, attempted to outdo the other, so the net result is rather good. Nancy Carroll is in love with Cary Grant, but on the eve of their marriage, Louis Calhern (the bad man in Nancy's past) shows up. Said bad man gets overly-tough and so Nancy has to kill him. However, she believes she can snatch three days of happiness for herself by skipping off on a "cruise to nowhere." John Haliday, Calhern's best pal, suspects her and grabs the same boat, puts on a mock murder trial and gets her to break down and confess while_ the police take down the words via microphone. Cary gets her out of it in the end by horse-whipping one of the witnesses — and what a scene that is and what an actor Jack LaRue is ! Nancy isn't well photographed but we think you'll like the picture all the same. BLOND1E JOHNSON (Warner) Not so good, not so bad, either. Joan Blondell goes gangsteress on us in this opus. She starts out with a chip on her shoulder against the whole world and becomes a big-shot racketeer, ruling with an iron hand from her pent-house apartment. Chester Morris is quite good as the double-crossing sweetie and strives as hard as does Joan to bring this picture out of the rut. It doesn't do them much good ! Mae Busch and Toshia Mori (the Japanese Wampas star) do what they can as well, but the picture still rates "Also Ran." WHAT, NO BEER! (M-G-M) This may have been the reason for M-G-M 's letting Buster Keaton out after ten years with that studio — at any rate, Buster should never have allowed them to put Jimmie Durante in this picture with him because Keaton suffers by comparison. Not that the picture doesn't have its moments. It does! imagine, if you can, Durante promoting Keaton into a partnership beer racket, Buster to furnish the money and Jimmie the poisonality ! Trouble, in the form of rival beer joint owners plus the cop pers, haunts their trail. The high light of the picture is reached when Durante gets a tip that their joint is to be raided! He fools them all by inviting the whole town to come over and drink up the evidence. What a laugh that is! Roscoe (Stuttering) Ates and John Miljan add to the merriment, but Durante purloins the negative. DESTINATION UNKNOWN (Universal) Here is an unusually strong dramatic picture! It should be enjoyed especially by those of you who have a serious turn of mind. Twelve sailors and a feminine stowaway are lost at sea aboard a rum runner. Knowing they haven't long to live, they spend their last hours in a huge drunken brawl. Suddenly, and mysteriously, "the stranger" appears, takes them safely to shore and, as mysteriously, disappears again. The kick is in the various characters' reactions to the stranger. There are some fine performances : Ralph Bellamy as "the stranger," Alan Hale, Betty Compson and Pat O'Brien. See it. A LADY'S PROFESSION (Paramount) How would you like to forget the bank failures, the mortgage, the war debts and all that tonight? You can — with Alison Skipworth and Roland Young! The title is a bit misleading. The plot really (what there is of it) concerns some broken-down English aristocrats who have arrived in America quite without knowing what bootlegging is and why! What happens aside from the story is what makes this picture such a honey ! Alison Skipworth creates the greatest laugh we have ever beard in a theater: all she does is try to get a certain number on the telephone. That's all, really. But you'll be convulsed. You really should see this offering. BE MINE TONIGHT (Universal) This is another of those imported pictures and, as is becoming the habit lately, it is quite good. It's a musical — with a logical plot for a change — in which you will hear one of the most glorious voices you've ever heard ! This man Jan Kiepura is the most famous tenor on the continent and is quite a handsome fellow as well. It's a case of mistaken identity
