Then along comes a handsome, straightfrom-the-shoulder taxi driver, Lyle Talbot, and the movie actress gets a new interest in life. But so does the cabbie's little girl-friend, Heather Angel. Heather is lovely. Lyle Talbot is O.K. There's lots to laugh at, and you'll be entertained.
CAPTAIN HURRICANE— RKO-RADIO
THIS, James Barton's debut picture, isn't a ' fair measure of his talent.
The Jeeler of "Tobacco Road" is swamped for the most part in a baffling mass of story turns, although his old salt character is well drawn. But even a grand character study can be tedious, if there's little else.
Helen Westley, Henry Travers and Gene Lockhart are up to par.
SYMPHONY OF LIVING— INVINCIBLE
V/OU may find this one heavy with pathetic ' characterization and tedious at times, although it has a certain emotional power and some very enjoyable music.
The drama of a symphony violinist, thwarted in his musical career, who finds an eventful glory in the triumph of his prodigy.
Al Shean tops the cast, with Charles Judels and Lester Lee seconding ably. Evelyn Brent and John Darrow are wasted in meagre roles.
TRANSIENT LADY— UNIVERSAL
THIS could have been powerful stuff, but ' Edward Buzzell's direction wasn't quite up to the task. Nor is Frances Drake a potent enough siren to be the lady who visits a Southern town and causes the devil to pop just because she's so desirable.
For excitement there's a murder and a lynching party; for love interest there's Gene Raymond.
And for acting there are June Clayworth and Henry Hull.

'ideas ever to hit the screen — the i trouble is that Mr. Monogram makes a e detail of the strange man and woman, h broke, who register at a swank hotel as ir % and missus to get by until something br> jf and remakes instead the hard-boiled-repcrwho-gets-drunk-in-the-first-reel-and-solve le mystery-in-the-last yarn. Pretty meaty, j, if you like movie reporters, but much toori drunk stuff and newspaper "atmosph " Robert Armstrong and Maxine Doyle due honors.
MUTINY AHEAD— MAJESTIC
IT'S all right if you run into this one, but < t seek it out. Just an average picture u h won't bore you, but won't thrill you ei r. A hybrid crook-and-sea drama, with 0 Hamilton's regeneration as the main : y thread. Kathleen Burke and Leon Ames i ifl in support.
HONGKONG NIGHTS— FUTTER PROC
A HIGHLY implausible story about a i' ^nese gun-runner and an American SS Service Man. Incoherent and full of blood ]• thunder dialogues. Too bad, for the prection and photography are superior, m Keene, Wera Engels, Warren Hymer id others struggle through the maze.
The new Tarzan, in a thoughtful mood. Herman Brix, ex-cowboy and Olympic champion, has been chosen for the lead in "Tarzan and the Green Goddess, which is being filmed in Guatemala.
