282 THE TALKING PICTURE Another good performance in the picture was that of Roland Young as Uriah Heep, a characterization that proved him to be an expert villain as well as an adroit comedian. ABOVE BIGHT Since Hearts of the World, Noel Coward had not appeared in an American picture until Ben Hecht and Charles Mac-Arthur induced him to join forces with them in a film they wrote, directed, and pro duced— The Scoundrel. It turned out to be the year's artistic success. Here are Coward and Julie Haydon. BELOW One of the thrillers of the year was Paramount's The Lives of a Bengal Lancer, based on the autobiography of Yeats-Brown. Henry Hathaway directed the film in a masterfully tense fashion. In this scene are Kathleen Burke, Cary Cooper, Lionel Atwill, Franchot Tone, and Richard Cromwell.
