For Catalog, write Sec'y LANE, 66 W. 85 St., N. Y. REVIEWS! Rosalind Russell is helping with a little back seat driving while Bill (Bachelor) Powell tries to thread a needle. AFTER THE DANCE— Fair. George Murphy, Nancy Carroll and Thelma Todd in a night-club romance that comes in for a goodly share of melodrama. ALIBI IKE— Fine. Adapted from Ring Lardner's famous baseball story of the same title, this Joe E. Brown feature ought to bring joy to the hearts of all dyed-in-the-wool lovers of this famous American sport. ACCENT ON YOUTH— Delightful. You'll enjoy this story of the middle-aged playwright who gets a brilliant idea for a new play when his young secretary makes love to him. (Herbert MarshallSylvia Sidney.) ANNA KARENINA — Splendid. The glamorous Garbo as Tolstoy's famous heroine. Russia ■ — during the 19th century — is the setting, and the cast includes Basil Rathbone, Fredric March, Freddie Bartholomew. BECKY SHARP— Fine. Photographed in technicolor, this film adapted from Thackeray's "Vanity Fair" and featuring Miriam Hopkins, Alan Mowbray and Frances Dee has attracted nationwide interest. A "must see." BLACK ROOM, THE— Fair. A castle in Bavaria is the setting for this chilling mystery which boasts that super-horror star, Boris Karloff, in the cast. (Marian Marsh and Thurston Hall.) BORN TO GAMBLE— Fair. The story of a well-to-do American family with an inherited gambling instinct, and the effect of this gambling on the various generations. (H. B. Warner, Eric Linden, Lois Wilson, Wm. Janney.) BROADWAY GONDOLIER— Amusing. Dick Powell as an ambitious ex-taxi driver who transforms himself into an Italian gondolier for the edification of American radio fans. (Joan Blondell-Adolphe Menjou.) CALM YOURSELF— Fair. A warm-weather farce concerning a bright young man who organizes a firm destined for the sole purpose of calming the ruffled spirits of his clients. (Robt. Young, Madge Evans, Ralph Morgan.) CHAMPAGNE FOR BREAKFAST— Just so so. The title seems to have little bearing on the plot which concerns a piece of California land willed to two sisters, Lila Lee and Joan Marsh. (Hardie Albright.) CURLY TOP — Fine. _ Shirley Temple is still captivating her audiences in this new version of the popular Daddy Long Legs theme. John Boles is the Daddy who adopts two orphans this time — Shirley and Rochelle Hudson. There's a romance, of course, and some swell songs and dances. DANTE'S INFERNO — Bizarre. Don't visit the theater with the idea of seeing a true adaptation of this classic. You'll be disappointed, for this is a modern melodramatic hodge-podge, with a throwback now and then to the kind of hell Dante so aptly describes. (Spencer Tracy-Claire Trevor.) TIPS ON PICTURES DIAMOND JIM— Excellent. Edward Arnold characterizes one of New York's most amazing men-about-town during a past generation. (Binnie Barnes, Jean Arthur, Cesar Romero.) ESCAPADE— Bright and sparkling. There's a pre-war glitter to this audacious society comedy. The locale is Vienna and the cast includes Bill Powell, Luise Rainer, Virginia Bruce, Frank Morgan, Reginald Owen. FARMER TAKES A WIFE— Excellent. The Erie Canal and its rough life makes an odd setting for Janet Gaynor, yet you will agree that this is one of the best of her recent pictures. (Henry FondaCharles Bickford.) FRONT PAGE WOMAN— Good. A breezy, fast-moving newspaper yarn — with Bette Davis and George Brent playing romantic, rival reporters. GIRL FRIEND, THE— Good, Jack Haley, Ann Sothern, Roger Pryor and a lively cast in an up-to-the-minute musical comedy farce, the background of which is laid in a rustic summer theatre. HARD ROCK HARRIGAN— Good. We read a lot about tremendous projects such as the Boulder Dam, but it takes a film like this to impress us with the effort which goes into the building of a like enterprise. Plenty of thrills and romance here, too. (Geo. O'Brien-Irene Hervey.) HOP-ALONG CASSIDY— Fine. Westerns are coming into their own again — what with some of our best actors going for the sagebrush and cactus. This boasts the presence of Wm. Boyd, Kenneth Thomson, Paula Stone. HOT TIP — Amusing. Jimmy Gleason and ZaSu Pitts as a husband and wife team, with ZaSu giving us a magnificent portrayal of a nagging wife. IRISH IN US, THE— Swell. Chockful of up. roarious situations, this rather sentimental Jimmy Cagney comedy has plenty of what it takes for an evening's entertainment. (Frank McHugh, Pat O'Brien, Al. Jenkins.) LOVE ME FOREVER— Splendid. A colorful combination of romance, melodrama and opera, with Grace Moore singing divinely and Leo Carrillo chalking up a hit for himself in the role of the gambler. MAD LOVE— Weird. The hands of a celebrated knife thrower are grafted onto the arms of a concert pianist who has met with an accident — with rather odd results. (Peter Lorre, Colin Clive, Frances Drake.) MEN WITHOUT NAMES— Good. The "G" men are on the trail again ! With the quarry being sought at a small-town boarding house. (Madge Evans, Fred MacMurray, Lynne Overman.) 16 Silver Screen
