TkeManWko Made Tke Picture w tneAecpce ujAc afceaonta w dee el: "k It is my business to make pictures, not to advertise them. But I have seen "Four Daughters," one of those rare and perfect things that happen once or twice in a lifetime. Now I want the whole world to see the finest picture that ever came out of the Warner Bros. Studios. jir I sat at the preview with Fannie Hurst, its author, — the woman who gave you "Humoresque," "Back Street" and "Imitation of Life" — the woman who knows how to reach human hearts and bring life's joys and sorrows to countless millions of readers. She shared with me the thrilled delight of watching "Four Daughters." Now, after seeing her grandest story quicken to life on the screen, she joins me in the enthusiasm I'm trying to pass on to you. ~^T Warner Bros, have made many other great pictures. Among them — "Robin Hood," "Pasteur," "Anthony Adverse," "The Life of Emile Zola." But here is a picture entirely different. A simple story of today and of people close to you and yours. An intimate story of four young girls in love and of youth's laughter, dreams and heartbreak. ^ Once in a blue moon comes a picture where everything seems to click just right. "Four Daughters" is such a picture. Action, story, direction blend, as if under kindly smiles of the gods, into a natural masterpiece. Especially, the truly inspired acting of three young players — Priscilla Lane, John Garfield and Jeffrey Lynn — is sure to raise these three to the topmost heights of stardom. "A If you could attend but one picture this year, I think "Four Daughters" would give you your happiest hour in the theatre. See it! 1 sincerely believe it's the best picture Warner Bros, ever made. / JACK L. WARNER, Vice-President In Charge of Production, Warner Bros. Pictures, Inc.
