‘About nine out of every 10 filmusicals turned out by Warners since that studio pioneered the field a decade back, have possessed in prosperous abundance a vital quality variously known, for lack of dictionary words to fit it, as zing, sock, swat and etc. The thing seems to derive from a singularly inspired matching of pace, rhythm, story and score, or perhaps essentially from simple, rare know-how. ‘Garden Of The Moon’ possesses this quality in extraordinary degree.” —MOTION PICTURE DAILY
“Garden Of The Moon’”’ will delight and entertain as did “42nd Street.” It is a gay, tuneful comedy-drama with action plus lots of laughs.
“Garden Of The Moon’? presents a highly entertaining company of film favorites:Pat O’Brien, Margaret Lindsay, Jimmy Fidler (his first screen appearance) Johnnie Davis, Melville Cooper and others. Plus Joe Venuti And His Swing Cats. |
‘‘Garden Of The Moon’? introduces a newcomer to the screen—John Payne. He is possessed of an agreeable personality and a fine singing voice. This picture will definitely lift him to stardom in other films, both musical and nonmusical.
‘‘Garden Of The Moon’’ will entertain all types of audiences — especially the “jitter-bugs” and the “ickies.” It is the most completely successful application of “swing” to screen tech
nique thus far accomplished, and fills the bill
for this latest craze.
“Garden Of The Moon”’ has wagon loads of exploitation and publicity possibilities outlined in this Campaign Plan.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOVIE QUIZ “Garden Of The Moon” ranks among the top attractions in the list of motion pictures promoted as “your best entertainment” in the “Motion Pictures’ Greatest Year” Campaign.
