Surely all those who saw this big

it is a heart-gripping picture with
undeniable audience appeal. "Stel-
la Dallas" easily registers as one of
the seasons most poignant screen
studies in human emotions. 1t is
we'll directed, beautifully photo
graphed. cleverly acted and strikes
the keynote of sincerity with un-
faltering touch. The hapless Stella
10 so clearly the victim of tempera-
ment and environment that she gets
sympathy even in the early stages of
her career when she pursues the
giddy course that ultimately wrecks
her home. And none will refuse
her the tender grace of pity at the
last, when, her self-sacrifice COM
plete, she stands without a window
In the beating rain and watches her
beloved daughters marriage cere-
mony, until q gruff cop bids her
move on" Nothing conventional
about this ending, where intense
pathos vies with joy, but we fancy
its artistry will appease even the
fan who demands the regulation
happy finish. Belle Bennett shines
gloriously in the Stella role, and
every member of the cast contributes
to the films success.

and all of the familiar sounds OF
