THE LIFE OF EMILE ZOLA (1937) 307 William Dieterle directed Zola tor Warner Brothers in 1937, and the film won the Academy award for the best production of the year. Another striking performance in the film was Joseph Schildkraut's superb playing of the role of Dreyfus. He is shown here after his reinstatement in the French army following Zola's successful campaign to clear him of the charge of treason. The woman with him is Gale Sondergaard, as Mine Dreyfus. BELOW George S. Kaufman's and Edna Ferber's play of theatrical life, Stage Door, came to the screen with Katharine Hepburn in the leading role. The picture also gave Ginger Rogers a chance to show what she could do with an important straight part not calling for dancing ability. She is shown here with Miss Hepburn and Adolphe Menjou.
