HAVING WONDERFUL CRIME— RKO: George Murphy and Carole Landis are newlyweds who are so devoted to Pat O’Brien that they take him along on their honeymoon to a resort hotel. There they get all mixed up in murder and mystery and bodies disappearing and appearing all over the place. In fact, the mystery is so mysterious that we still can’t figure it out. (Apr.) HER LUCKY NIGHT — Universal: Martha O’Driscoll and Noah Beery Jr. get all involved in a story that deals with a fortuneteller and George Barbier testing Noah’s ability for a job. The Andrews Sisters shine in the singing and crooning departments, but it won’t be the luckiest night you ever spent in front of the flicker screen. (Apr.) I /HERE COME THE CO-EDS— Universal: Abbott and Costello are caretakers at a girls school under the strict supervision of Lon Chaney and to complicate their lives even more, Martha O’Driscoll, a night-club show girl, wins a scholarship to the school and headmaster Donald Cook falls in love with her. The boys are back in their stride and it’s a very funny film in lots of spots. (Apr.) Wi/HERE COME THE WA FILS'— Paramount : A happy-as-a-lark story about the girls of the Navy, with Bing Crosby as a crooner who’s the idol of the bobby-soxers, Betty Hutton as twins (imagine two Huttons in one flint) and Sonny Tufts, who even sings with Bing. Betty’s cute, the show’s cute and you’ll just naturally want to see it. (Mar.) 1 /^HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN— Warners: A great big star-studded musical, with the story telling the adventures of two soldiers, Bob Hutton and Dane Clark, who visit the Hollywood Canteen. Bob meets and falls in love with star Joan Leslie, and Dane falls for Janis Paige. The conglomeration of stars includes Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Jane Wyman, Dennis Morgan, Jack Carson and many others. (Mar.) HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN — LTniversal: Boris Karloff is the mad scientist, Lon Chaney the Wolf Man, and John Carradine the deformed Monster, and they engage in all kinds of repulsive goings-on. Anne Gwynne is the girl in love with the Wolf Man; and Elena Verdugo, Sig Ruman and Lionel Atwill have the misfortune to know all these unattractive people. (Mar.) I’LL BE SEEING YOU — Selznick International-UA: Ginger Rogers possesses a new sincerity as the girl “on furlough” from prison who visits her relatives for Christmas and meets Joseph Cotten, a war-shocked soldier on furlough from a hospital. Shirley Temple plays Ginger’s cousin and Tom Tully and Spring Byington are her parents. It’s a different, appealing picture. (Mar.) IT’S A PLEASURE — International: Nothing new has been added to the plot of the wife who clings to the husband who drinks too much, or to Sonja Henie’s brilliant skating achievements, but the picture has charm and some of the loveliest Technicolor imaginable. Michael O’Shea is believable as the man Sonja loves, but Marie McDonald doesn't ring true as the heavy. (May) WRIT’S IN THE BAG— Jack Skirball— UA: An amusingly silly, wholly irresponsible picture. The plot, which concerns itself with Fred Allen’s amazing legacy from a murdered uncle, gets in the way of the funny sequences and outlandish goings-on. and it’s all strictly madhouse. Don Ameche, Rudy Vallee, Victor Moore, Bill Bendix, Bob Benchley and Binnie Barnes are all mixed up in the fun. (May) l Vi/KEEP YOUR POWDER DRY — M-G-M : Here’s that WAC picture you’ve been waiting for, with Lana Turner, Susan Peters and Laraine Day a trio of beauties who enlist together, endure together and finally graduate together. Lana plays the wealthy playgirl, Laraine the all-knowing member of the group, and Susan the even-tempered one who tries to keep peace between Lana and Laraine. (May) 1/-1 /KEYS OF THE KINGDOM, THE— 20th Century-Fox: Powerfully moving and tenderly touching is A. J. Cronin’s story of the humble and seemingly misfit priest who accepts a post in China and endures through plague and revolution with strength and humility. Gregory Peck gives a splendid characterization as the priest and Vincent Price, Thomas Mitchell, Rosa Stradner and Edmund Gwenn turn in fine performances. (Mar.) MAN WHO WALKED ALONE, THE — PRC: David O’Brien is a discharged overseas veteran who thumbs a ride into town with Kay Aldridge. The ride lands them in jail on a stolen car charge, and when they get out they break into a mansion and land back in the hoosegow. Guinn Williams, Ruth Lee and Isobel Randolph help cover the plot territory and it’s a good-natured little picture. (May) y^NATIONAL VELVET — M-G-M: A picture to be enjoyed by every member of the family is this story about a little girl, Elizabeth Taylor, who wins a horse in a lottery and enters him in the Grand National. Elizabeth is a wonderfully talented youngster, Mickey Rooney as the homeless kid is terrific, and Donald Crisp, Angela Lansbury, Anne Revere and Jackie Jenkins are all so good.
