Pirates seize the ship, and it looks like a "fate worse than death" for the runway princess, until Mister Eddy and his band of Boy Scouts dash to the rescue (just in the nick of time, too!) and, right there is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. When Miss MacDonald sings, Director Van Dyke sits back with closed eyes, making the most of every single "mini-ni," because, he says, when that lady vocalizes, a director is as de trop as a mustache cup! We admit that MacDonald is tops; but, that Mr. Eddy is no slouch, either. This should be a feast for you music lovers. RTIVP From our seat in OF THP RIT7 the balcony (14th ,! " dl"A}[ WITZ row!) this sounds pretty silly. Don't let on I said so, though, because the authors, Bob Shannon and Al Cohen, are sitting right behind me, and we've had one new hat squashed over our ears already this month ! It seems that William Gargan, director of exploitation for a big hotel, has an ear for music and soothes it by dropping in on a local music store, two or three times a week, and playing records . . . gratis. Patricia Ellis, keeper of the discs, thinks Bill looks as though he could use some nice home cooking, and takes him to her two-room penthouse for an epicurean work-out. After wrapping himself around a meal that would knock Ghandi off a fast, Bill says, who's the artist, and I'll give him a job? And, because Pat's brother* Erik Rhodes, needs the plug, she points an accusing finger and says, he done it! Well, Bill installs Erik at the Ritz, only to discover, on the night of a bankers' convention, that the lad can't even boil eggs! And, while he's flying around, trying to find a substitute, the 300 bankers flood the Ritz dining-room and . . . surprise! are served the kind of dinner that starving Armenians dream about ! And, what do you think? Erik didn't have anything to do with it, naturally. For, when his adoring mama, Bodil Rosing, saw what a pickle her baby boy was in, what did she do but jump into a Mother Hubbard and save the day. Mammy! And didn't I say it was silly? But, Director William McGann has so much faith in the story as a howling farce, that we'll take his word for it! THE WEDDING NIGHT You may have laughed when somebody sat down at the piGOLDWYN an0; but you>d have rolled in the aisle, watching that strapping Ralph Bellamy trying to master a Russian folk dance for his role in this Edwin Knopf story! Engaged to marry Anna Sten, imagine Ralph's annoyance when the lady of his dreams goes" into a tail-spin over Gary Cooper, a struggling young author with one best seller to his credit.

C. married to Helen Vinson, who is merely sticking with him in the hope that he'll sell another book and take her to a life of luxury in the city. Tired of it all, Helen takes things in her own hands and departs for New York, leaving Gary to darn his own socks. And, when Anna visits the forlorn Gary to give him a hand with the housework . . . Pop! goes her heart! And nobody to pick up the pieces! Marooned by a blizzard, Anna is forced to spend the night in the Cooper domicile, and, with the dawn, her Pop arrives, post haste, mad as hops and determined that his daughter's marriage to Bellamy shall go through, at once! The wedding comes off as planned, but, when Gary appears and dances with the bride, Ralph, in a drunken frenzy gets all set to kill him. Anna succeeds in saving Gary's life, but the ending, according to Papa Goldwyn, is too exciting to tell. LOVE IN BLOOM • PARAMOUNT Stepping on the set, amidst the "sh-hh-h-es!" of his entire cast, we saw Joe Morrison playing an imaginary piano, while the cameraman took a close-up of his sweetheart. Dixie Lee. According to the story, by Frank Adams, Joe is a country boy who has come to the city to write music, probably influenced by some of the stuff he'd tuned in on his radio set! The first break he gets is to meet up with Dixie Lee, a dancer who has run away from her daddy's small-time carnival to catch up with some of the finer things of life. The two of them get jobs in a dinky little music store and proceed to modernize the place, nearly throwing the old-fashioned owner of the joint into 100-proof hysterics! J. C. Nugent, Dixie's father (and, incidentally, the real father of the director, Elliott Nugent) sends Burns and Allen, two of his performers, after the girl, because business hasn't been so good since Dixie went scouting for the finer things. Well, the kids are all tied up in knots, seeing as how they've come to care for each other in the meantime. But, you'd better believe that Love Triumphs, as usual, with Joe and Dixie in a swell clinch, for the finale. MURDER ON A HONEYMOON • RKO For the first time in its life, Catalina Island is playing a part, straight, without benefit of make-up to fool you into believing that it's Alaska, or the Fiji Islands, or something! The whole thing starts when the key witness in a gangster trial dies in a seaplane while flying from Los Angeles to Catalina Island. And, to make matters more complicated, the body is stolen while waiting for an autopsy! A passenger on the death plane, Edna May Oliver, scents a black boy in the woodpile and sends for James Gleason, New York inspector. And, with these two comedians united in a common cause, murder or no murder, it's bound to be some fun! It turns out that the murdered man is NOT the murdered man, at all, but the bodyguard, who had changed places with his employer when the latter sensed that something was wrong. Furthermore, while scouting for the first body, Edna May and Gleason stumble upon another young man, shot dead, and his bride in hysterics beside him! Far be it from me to spoil one of the real good mysteries of the year by 68 The New Movie Magazine, April, 1935
