Interesting Sn THE theatre patrons are supposed to be broke and depressed, yet one of the recent successes was a tragedy— " The Informer." A gay musical with dancing, such as "Roberta," is enthusiastically received, and the Shirley Temple craze continues. Pondering these facts the producers have planned a variety of pictures, not forgetting the recent success of Western stories. "Hoss Operas" are now being made by Warner Baxter, Richard Dix, Buck Jones, Ken Maynard and George O'Brien. Only three famous novels are being screened, although "David Copperfield" swept the country. "Canning" a Broadway hit seems a surefire method of making a picture, but none of the great successes, "David Copper-field," "The Thin Man," "It Happened One Night," came from the theatre. It's "The Arizonian," and Richard Dix fearlessly watches the eyes of Joe Sauers. One false move and it will be the lastll "Accent on Youth," one of the cleverest Broadway plays, is being screened with Sylvia Sidney and Herbert Marshall. This off-stage shot shows the brilliant stars learning their lines. "Redheads on Parade" have John Boles and Dixie Lee in the snuggling parts. It takes more imagination than music to make a modern musical. Jackie Searl and Jane Withers are the stars of "Singer," and it is believed that this novelty will make a great hit.
