Silver Screen (Nov 1939 - May 1940)

Silver Screen for May 1940 81 TEETHING PAINS thing, but she's a mass of complexes — a veritable psychic swamp — " "What seevis to be troubling her?" Basil asks politely. "That's what I'd like you to find out," Vera gushes. "She gets very low — over nothing at all — ajid when she broods it worries me to distraction." "Melancholia," Basil mutters to hinir self. "Worse," Vera assures him. "The poor child's got somethi?ig loose somewhere, I'm sitre, although I don't know where she gets it. She's always been in the very best surroundings. Lawrence and I have practically raised her. Coidd I bring her in tomorrow?" "No," he rejoins, "I'd prefer you didn't." She looks at him in amazement and he hastens to assure her, "that doesn't mean I'm not interested, but I've found that the effect of a doctor's office on a neurotic mind is something detrimental. I wotdd rather have the opportunity of observing her without her knowing I'm doing so professionally." He has figured by this time that Sis is rich and would be a perfect set-up for his next wife — but Vera doesn't know what's going through his mind. "I see," she muses, glad to be a fellow conspirator. "Well, let us think — " and then she has an inspiration. "The Bazaar! That's it! I'll put her in charge of the wheel of fortune!" In her enthusiasm she completely forgets poor Sister Linda. "Oh, do come. Dr. Sebastian! You'll just love my costume!" "What are you going to wear?" he smiles politely. "Well, I don't know yet," slie cottfesses, "but it'll be ravishing." You can see for yourselves how easy it would be to spend the rest of the day here hstening to Vera's prattle. But I tear myself away towards — ■ Warner Brothers IT seems there are dozens of pictures going here, but "All This And Heaven, Too," starring Bette Davis; "The Sea Hawk," starring Errol Fl3mn, and "Torrid Zone," starring James Cagney, Ann Sheridan and Pat O'Brien, are all just starting, so we'll save them until next month. That leaves "An Angel From Texas," with Wayne Morris, Ronald Reagan, Eddie Albert and Rosemary Lane. This latter picture is a re-make of the old "Butter and Egg Man." It was a swell play with Gregory Kelly and Ruth Gordon on the stage and it was an elegant movie with Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Mulhall, so it should be equally good with the present cast. Rosemary is a little Texas girl with ambitions to become a great Broadway star. So off she goes to the big city. Eddie is the home town boy who pines for her. His mother is afraid Rosemary may get lonesome in New York and forget him, so she gives Eddie her life's savings (which just goes to show 0)tce more how blind another love is because anyone else cotdd see Eddie hasn't sense enough to come in out of the rain) and bids him to go to New York and buy a hotel. Eddie runs into Rosemary in New York. She hasn't become a big star. She's only just got a job as secretary to a couple of fly-by-night producers — 'Wayne and Ronnie. And before you can say "scat" they're selling Eddie an interest in a non-existent {as yet) show. The scene is hilariously funny as they're making up the story as they go along. At one point, Wayne bangs a door to simidate an explosion and Jie bangs it so Jiard he knocks down the wliole wall of the room. That's when tJie queett, who is to be executed because her husband, the king, has lost the country's treasury on the races and fled. But just as she faces the firing squad the citizenry revolts and overthrows the governmeftt and wants her to run for presidetit. Wayne is playing the queen as they tell Eddie the story. "I can't be president," she — he, I mean, says coyly, "because I'm going to become a mother!" Not since "Kid Galahad" has Wayne done anything to equal this, so don't miss it. And let's all of us not miss — R-K-O There are three pictures shooting here — "Curtain Call," featuring Barbara Read and Helen Vinson; "The Romantic Mr. Hinklin," featuring James Ellison and Lucille Ball {directed by Ray McCarey) ; and "The Saint Takes Over," featuring George Sanders and Wendy Barrie. They're all good pictures and I wish I could tell you more about them — especially Mr. Hinklin, because there is really fun on this set — but I've used up all my space. So, as Jack Benny says, "We're running a little late, folks. Goodnight."
