VOICE IN THE WIND — Ripley and Monter U.A.: This film has some interesting, fresh touches, but the outstanding thing about it is the superb acting of Francis Lederer as the Czech concert pianist who is separated from his wife Sigrid Gurie, in their escape from the Nazis. It’s a different, unusual picture. (April.) VOODOO MAN, THE — Monogram: Poor Bela Lugosi is a mad doctor again, who attempts to bring back his young wife, Ellen Hall, a zombie, to real life by capturing young girls and, by voodoo, transferring their will and spirits to the zombie wife. Wanda McKay and Louise Currie are his pretty victims. (May.) WEEKEND PASS — Universal: Noah Beery, Jr., shipyard worker, is given a week-end pass and dreams of a soft bed and a hot tub. Instead along comes Martha O’Driscoll running away from a grand father who insists she become a WAVE when she wants to be a WAC. Poor Beery is dragged into the fracas time after time, never quite getting back to his bed and his bath. (May.) WEST SIDE KID, THE — Republic: Henry Hull is too unhappy with his willful daughter. Dale Evans, and his indifferent wife, Nana Bryant, to want to live. So he hires killer-gangster Donald Barry to complete the job, but instead Barry tries to bring harmony in the household. (March.) WHAT A MAN!— Monogram : Johnny Downs is a good little boy, rapidly headed nowhere until he finds hiding within his home a girl who he thinks is a gangster’s moll, Wanda McKay. Wanda completely renovates him, helps him become office manager, a man on his own, and eventually her husband. (March.) i/WHAT A WOMAN ! — Columbia: Rosalind Russell is a super-powered woman agent in search of the perfect male type to play the lead in the movie version of a best-seller. She finally signs up the hook’s author, Willard Parker, and then comes the hilarious process of making him a good actor. (March.) WHISTLER THE — Darmour-Columbia: Richard Dix, believing he has let his wife die, decides to die himself; so, through a go-between, he hires J. Carrol Naish to rub him out. Then Dix discovers his wife is still alive but he can’t get to Naish to tell him he’s changed his mind about dying, so he’s on one awful spot. Both Dix and Naish are very good. (June.) ]/)/WHITE CLIFFS OF DOVER, THE — M-G-M: Never has Irene Dunne given a finer performance than as the American girl who goes to England for two weeks’ visit and remains a lifetime, nor has Alan Marshall ever been better than as the Englishman who marries Irene, and loses his life in World War I. Roddy McDowell is their son who grows up to enter World War II. The picture has charm, dignity and great heart appeal. (June.) SWOMAN OF THE TOWN, T HE — U. A. -Sherman : Albert Dekker plays the noted newspaperman “Bat” Masterson, who rose from sheriff of old Dodge City to an important figure in the newspaper world. It’s a good story well told. (March.) YOU CAN’T RATION LOVE — Paramount : Coeds start a system of rationing males by placing point values on the hard-to-get beaux. Bill Edwards is way up in points but singer Johnnie Johnston is very low until Betty Rhodes develops him into a wow. Marie Wilson and Johnnie “Scat” Davis try for a few laughs and get them. (May.)
