ly looses his reputation and his girl. The picture is interesting of its type, but the moral values are rather too obscure to recommend for children.

Not Recommended. No.
SEVEN DAYS LEAVE. Gary Cooper, Beryl Mercer. Direction by Richard Wallace. All dialogue. Paramount.
Adapted from the stage play, “The Old Lady Shows Her Medals,” by Sir James Barrie, the picture achieves its purpose — delightful and thoughtful entertainment. It is the story of a lonly and patriotic old lady who, during the World War, adopts an embittered young soldier, and of the measure of happiness her faith brings him. Beautifully acted, satisfying as to story and direction, it is highly recommended.

Excellent. Good if Not Too
Mature.
SO LONG LETTY. Charlotte Greenwood. Direction by Lloyd Bacon. All dialogue with interlolated songs. Warner Bros.
This production is a broad farce based on the theme of two husbands who decide to exchange wives. The wives connive to teach them a lesson and convince them that they are, after all, more suited to their legal mates. Charlotte Greenwood’s comedy is hilarious and the humor is typical of the theme, which is not in the best of taste for children’s edification.

Hardly Suitable. Not Advised.
SO THIS IS COLLEGE. Elliott Nugent, Robert Montgomery. Direction by Sam Wood. All dialogue. M.-G.-M.
Two college fraternity brothers are rivals for the same girl, but find friendship for each other the stronger tie. It is entertaining and wholesome fun. ADOLESCENTS, 12 to 16. CHILDREN, 6 to 12.
Good. Good.
SOUTH SEA ROSE. Lenore Ulrich, Charles Bickford. Direction by Allan Dwan. All dialogue. Fox.
Previously reported in preview in November. It is a fantastic melodrama built up to present the star’s special type of appeal. It will not greatly interest critical adult audiences and cannot be recommended for children.
ADOLESCENTS, 12 to 16. CHILDREN, 6 to 12. Unwholesome. No.
TANNED LEGS. Arthur Lake, June Clyde. Direction by Louis Sarecky. All dialogue. R. K. 0.
Musical comedy of very slight entertainment value for adults and which is not the type to recommend for children. ADOLESCENTS, 12 to 16. CHILDREN, 6 to 12. Vulgar. No.
UNTAMED. Joan Crawford, Ernest Torrence. Direction by Conway. All dialogue. M.-G.-M.
Preposterous story of the adjustment of a product of jungle civilization to super-sophisticated New York society. There is nothing in theme or characterization to recommend it.
ADOLESCENTS, 12 to 16. CHILDREN, 6 to 12. Unwholesome. No.
