GENTLEMAN'S FATE Metro-Goldivyn-Mayer
Proof that all John Gilbert needs to bring him back as a great popular favorite is — a big story. This isn't it — but it is the best Gilbert talker thus far, with Jack in a robust underworld role, the picturesque Louis Wolheim, and beauty by Leila Hyams and Anita Page. Well worth seeing this Gilbert talker.
SCANDAL SHEET Paramount
Don't miss this one! It's crammed with suspense, surprises, and great performances. Bancroft is at his best as a two-fisted newspaper editor whose paper comes first, even when his wife — Kay Francis — becomes front-page copy with Clive Brook. And then — but you'll have to see for yourself. You'll like it.
MILLIE RKO
You may have heard of Millie — "the right girl who met the wrong men." Helen Twelvetrees is superb in a role that ranges from girlhood to middle-age, and lifts the picture from mediocrity to occasional excitement. Not as sexy as its advertising, but Miss Twelvetrees makes it worth an evening of your time.

Mary Pickford revels in the role of a little French cutup, created by Lenore Ulric on the stage. Mary pouts, flirts, bites, scratches and spouts French in the most slapstick part she ever played — and she has her tearful moments, with all the Pickford pathos. If you like Mary, obvious fun, or Reginald Denny, you might try it.
HONOR AMONG LOVERS Paramount
It begins as a pleasant comedy, but it turns into melodrama before you know it! Nevertheless, it's never dull. Claudette Colbert, secretary to Fredric March, has to draw herself up and say "How dare you!" after which she marries a poor but dishonest young man. Complications! Charm and good acting by the stars.
GIRLS DEMAND EXCITEMENT Fox
And evidently the director decided to give it to them, for he keeps the comely young ladies of the cast awfully busy, in a "war" with the boys at this very co-educational movie college. John Wayne and Virginia Cherrill are the nice young leads, with Marguerite Churchill and William Janney assisting.
