CHINESE CAT, THE — Monogram: Charlie Chan, the Chinese detective, has forty-eight hours in which to solve a murder which the police have given up as hopeless. He does it through the key to the mystery — a Chinese statuette of a black cat. Joan Woodbury, Benson Fong, Ian Keith and Weldon Heyburn are Chan’s cohorts in the story. (June.) y'^COVER GIRL — Columbia: Rita Hayworth has never looked lovelier than in this gay, gorgeous musical comedy and Gene Kelly's dancing is superb. Rita, who works in Kelly’s small night club, wins a cover girl contest and the attendant publicity carries her away from Kelly to Lee Bowman, Broadway producer. With Eve Arden, Phil Silvers, Otto Kruger and the Cover Girls. (May.) COWBOY AND THE SENORITA, THE — Republic: Too much plot complication dealing with buried treasure and cryptic messages on a bracelet lost by a girl trying to locate the treasure. Because Roy Rogers and Guinn Williams find the bracelet, villain John Hubbard accused them of kidnapping the missing girl. Mary Lee and Dale Evans are the girls. (June.) CURSE OF THE CAT PEOPLE— RKO: Simone Simon, the cat lady, is playmate to a little girl, Ann Carter, who’s entranced with the idea of a woman's turning into a cat. Naturally, Ann’s parents Kent Smith and Jane Randolph are horrified at the idea. The previous picture “Cat People” was a far far better story than this little hocus-pocus. (May.) y'lyDAYS OF GLORY — RKO: Two new vibrant personalities, Gregory Peck and Tamara Toumanova, are presented here, with Peck as the commander of a Russian guerrilla band. When her ballet troupe is overrun by the Nazis, Toumanova becomes one of them and, of course, her love soon finds a response in the commander’s heart. Every detail of the film is cleverly and beautifully done. (June.) DETECTIVE KITTY O’DAY— Monogram: Jean Parker and her beau, Peter Cookson, try to discover who murdered her boss while, at the same time, trying to prevent detectives Tim Ryan and Ed Gargan from arresting her for the deed.

I/' FIGHTING SEABEES, THE— Republic : A riproaring job on how our valiant Seabees came into being as a fighting branch of the Navy, with John Wayne as a hot-headed, hard-fisted engineer who learns his lesson from naval officer Dennis O'Keefe. Both men give likeable performances. (April.) FOLLOW THE BOYS — Universal : The idea of showing the work of the Hollywood Victory. Committee and the stars who give their services to entertain the boys in camps and overseas comes to the screen overly long but immensely entertaining. The array of artists includes George Raft, Zorina, Orson Welles, Jeanette MacDonald, Dietrich, Dinah Shore, Donald O’Connor and many others. (June.) \/FOUR JILLS AND A JEEP— 20th CenturyFox: Because this story is based on the overseas adventures of Kay Francis, Carole Landis, Martha Raye and Mitzi Mayfair it holds the interest far more than it otherwise would. Phil Silvers, sergeant attached to the girls throughout their journey, is very good, as is singer Richard Haymes and John Harvey, who provides the romance with Carole. (June.) y^GOING MY WAY — Paramount: A charming, heart-warming picture, with Bing Crosby as the young priest who loves baseball and song-writing. He’s sent to the rundown parish of Barry Fitzgerald to help straighten out its affairs, and Bing does a fine job. Rise Stevens sings magnificently, Fitzgerald is a joy to behold and Bing turns in a fine, sincere performance. (May.) I /y HAPPY LAND — 20th Century-Fox: This story of a small-town druggist, played superbly by Don Ameche who cannot reconcile himself to the loss of his boy in the war, comes as a message of peace and comfort. Frances Dee is Don’s wife, Harry Carey his father who returns to him, Richard Crane the son and Ann Rutherford the girl he left behind. (April.) HAT CHECK HONEY — Universal: Three name bands, Freddie Slack’s, Harry Owens’ and Ted Weems’, the cuteness and pertness of hat-check gtrl Grade McDonald and the antics of Leon Errol fail to give a lift to this dreary little weary. The plot deals with Errol’s sacrificing his all for the future of his son Richard Davis who makes a hit with Slack’s band and then walks out. (June.) HENRY ALDRICH— BOY SCOUT— Paramount:
