THE WOMEN IN HIS LIFE » »
Otto Kruger, Isabel Jewell, Ben Lyon, Una
Merkel. Direction by George B. Seitz.
M-G-M.
Otto Kruger is given the unsympathetic role of a clever but dissolute lawyer who is brilliantly successful as a defender of criminals and heartless in his personal relationships. It is melodrama in the extreme, the plot hinging upon a belated repentance and change of heart after a severe illness. In other hands than Mr. Kruger’s the picture would be utterly worthless, but in his, the perfection of detail and the line interpretative acting makes the character study fairly interesting to adult audiences.

(Formerly Titled “OLD HANNIBAL”)
May Robson, Jean Parker, Lewis Stone. Direction by Charles F. Riesner. M-C-M.
This is the story of an avaricious woman financier who is spectacularly successful in amassing a fortune, only to discover that in achieving her ambitions she has lost everything in life that is worth having. May Robson gives a convincing characterization, the theme is well developed and the sum total is substantial and satisfying entertainment. Adolescents, 12 to 16 Children, 8 to 12

Walt Disney Production. United Artists.
Mickey and Minnie have blood curdling adventures with villainous sailors which
makes the cartoon less suitable for younger audiences. It is not so original as we expect from this studio.
