One More Tomorrow(Warner Bros.) (1946)

TLL 4 MTT CCC CCC MI CC eC TTT Ce TT Suvi TELE Quintet Of Stars Featured In | _ Warners’ ‘One More Tomorrow’ (Current Theatre Story) A delightfully refreshing approach to an ever-popular motion picture theme, the romantie triangle, is to be found in “One More Tomorrow,” Warner Bros.’ new film comedy currently holding forth at the Strand Theatre. With a five-star cast headed by Ann Sheridan, Dennis Morgan, Alexis Smith, Jane Wyman and Jack Carson, the film is a streamlined commentary on current-day life and romance, and lends proof to the theory that film romance need not be ponderous to be universally enjoyed. Recounting the increasing woes that overtake a group of talented young people engaged in publishing a liberal magazine, the film also relates in detail the growing romance between Christie Sage (Ann Sheridan), bright young photographer, and Tom Collier (Dennis Morgan), handsome and wealthy owner of the magazine. But Christie rejects Tom’s offer of marriage because of the disparity in their backgrounds and beliefs, and Tom marries the exquisite Cecelia (Alexis Smith) instead. Others involved in complications both business-like and romantic include Jane Wyman as Franc Connors, Christie’s capable friend and assistant; Jack Carson as Pat Regan, Tom’s valet, who introduces an entirely original technique into the art of serving; and Reginald Gardiner as Jim Fisk, lethargic TE TC TE MIO Sreeueteanrty UOC TCC TCO TOOL Still No. AK 521 A handsome boss and a pretty young working girl generally spell romance, as Dennis Morgan and Ann Sheridan sparkling new comedy, (above) prove in Warner Bros.’ "One More Tomorrow," currently at the Strand.

Certainly the actresses who can and do portray such women with great success on the screen are becoming scarcer. When one names Billie Burke, Spring Byington and Marjorie Gateson, he has named most of them, if not all. It is Miss Gateson who is doing the fluttering for Warner Bros. just now in that company’s current film, “One More Tomorrow,” now at the Strand, and no one can do it better. Under the careful, painstaking direction of Peter Godfrey, Miss Gateson gets the picture off to the proper jittery start by staging a social gathering which serves to introduce most of the principals, including Ann Sheridan, Jane Wyman, Alexis Still No. AK 51 Smith, Dennis Morgan and Jack Carson, who co-star in the sophisticated comedy. Jack Carson, incidentally, plays Miss Gateson’s butler, one of the best roles in this clever society comedy. John Loder is the more sedate foil for his comedy. Between them and the other members of the cast, Marjorie Gateson goes from one near-nervous collapse to another. Neither Ann Sheridan nor Alexis Smith is a fluttery type. All the nerves of the picture are concentrated in Miss Gateson who makes them do for the whole cast and crew. “There are a few like her left for screen purposes,” explains Dennis Morgan, “but we ought to be thankful that the actual type is just about extinct.” Mat No. 2A In a vain effort to appear nonchalant, Dennis Morgan and Jack Carson nervously clink glasses for a convivial toast in a lighthearted moment from Warners’ sparkling new comedy, "One More Tomorrow," currently at the Strand. Ann Sheridan, Alexis Smith and Jane Wyman are also starred in the film. 4 UAOUAUNSEUUNUSEOELUSUNCOOAENDDTOOEERELNUS ACEO SOREL TEE EEE NNT PTL Ex-Football Star Fills Two Jackets In Warner Picture Warner Bros.’ studio wardrobe department, which has been famed for years for being able to garb anybody in anything on a moment’s notice, finally met its Waterloo when _ director Peter Godfrey sent out a call for a.butler’s mess jacket for Jack Carson, one of the five stars featured in Warners’ “One More Tomorrow,” opening Friday at the Strand. Not one jacket in the wardrobe department’s vast array could circumnavigate Carson’s barrel-like chest. But he was fitted—by tearing up two of them and sewing them together. In self-defense the wardrobe department explained that it could hardly have expected to fit a former football star, such as Carson, in a butler’s garb. That is out-size indeed. Co-starring with Carson in “One More Tomorrow” are Ann Sheridan, Dennis Morgan, Jane Wyman and Alexis Smith. The film, adapted from a play by Philip Barry, describes the parallel difficulties encountered by a handful of enterprising young people who wish to publish a liberal magazine. Glamorous Actress Learns Humility In Current Film Role Ann Sheridan, the oomph girl, proposed to a man recently— and was turned down! It was only for a film scene, but films are supposed to mirror life, aren’t they? And can anyone imagine any healthy man, even with a wife, turning down Ann Sheridan? As Peter Godfrey, director of the picture, “One More Tomorrow” said: “Well, it’s in the script. But who’s going to believe it?” Anyway, Dennis Morgan, the man in the case, has to say “no” because, although he joves Ann very much in the story, he has thoughtlessly married Alexis Smith—which isn’t bad, either. The sequence is for Warner Bros.’ “One More Tomorrow,” currently playing at the Strand. It is played in a setting representing a gay little Russian restaurant in New York’s Greenwich Village, and Ann, freshly back from a trip to Mexico, is breathless and starry-eyed as she sits at a table with Morgan. When she last saw him he was single; she’s thought it all over and since she’s decided he’s the man for her—why, she’s going to propose, that’s all. “Tom”—that’s his name in the script—she says, and her voice would make a statue palpitate—‘‘Tom, I love you—I love you so much—will you please marry me?” Mat No. 1E Ann Sheridan Morgan groans. “I’m married,” he says dismally—as who wouldn’t under the circumstances—and the director cuts the scene. After the scene had been shot, Ann said she’d have a new _— understanding now for men who propose in hopeless cases. She didn’t infer that she had _ listened . to any in real life, but Ann’s a very modest young lady — and you can’t be an oomph girl and have eyes and curves like Ann and not be proposed to pretty often. “Doing a scene like that makes you realize that a girl in real life must get an awful emotional jolt when the circumstances are the same,” says the actress. “And I hope I never get in a spot like that in real life.” It’s a good bet she won’t. Besides Morgan and Miss Sheridan, “One More Tomorrow” also stars Jane Wyman, Alexis Smith and Jack Carson. Mat No. 1B Dennis Morgan Actor Loves ‘One More Tomorrow’ Role So Much He Can't Stay Out Of Camera Range Director Peter Godfrey was shooting a scene for War ner Bros.’ “One More Tomorrow, > currently at the Strand. Jack Carson, who plays the part of a butler to Dennis Morgan was supposed to open a door to admit Ann Sheridan and Jane Wyman and then make an obsequious exit. But for some reason in rehearsal after rehearsal he missed his mark and stayed within camera range. “For the luvva Mike, Jack, 3 said Godfrey, “disappear as soon as you say your line.” “Don’t you know, Peter,” commented Ann _ Sheridan sweetly, “that the only way to get Carson out of the scene is with a hook?” In addition to the quartet of stars mentioned, Alexis Smith is also starred in the film.
