MUSIC lovers especially will welcome the wealth of grand opera in this film, and Evelyn Layes' beautiful singing. The story is the rise and fall of a great prima donna — her first success, her triumphs, her final defeat. Miss Laye has an exacting role, musically and dramatically, and she fills it admirably. Fritz Kortner, Muriel Aked, Carl Esmond, and the entire cast, are adequate.

\\ ELS, jewels, who has the jewels? Everybody looks Jifilty: Ricardo Cortez. Mary Astor, Dudley Digges, Irving Ppel, and the rest of the cast.

If your interest in the diamonds wanes, there's i ysterious murder and a nice love story to keep it sustained.

The cowboy hero is Richard Dix, who goes to San Antonio to round up a gang of crooks, and meets up with Martha Sleeper, disguised as a hard-boiled boy, her father, Samuel Hinds, and Sleep 'n' Eat, and Louise Beavers. Dix is splendid. [additional reviews on page 112 ]
