more than Q play, which Marcel Pagnei
has given Us. Into Q haunting tale Of
youth on the quays Of that sur. warmed
old Mediterranean town, where proud
ships cast anchor in the harbor, only
TO sail away again to distant countries
over the horizon, Pagnel has breathed
the dreams Of his own youth and Of
youth the world over, until what he
really brings TO US in the person of the
s-a-hungry Marius is the embodiment
Of q desire as fundamental as human
ife-of q restless spirit that is forever
seeking in far places for the magnih-
cence, the giamor and the splendof that
life might be.
He has taken handful Of people on
q seaport water front in the south OF
France he knows so well-Marius, the
gallant, the high-hearted; his father
who Is the shrewdness, the wisdom. the
PRACTICABLE Of this world, and Fanny
who, like women since the world began,
loves, suffers and waitS-and out Of
their rich and pulsing life he has woven
q play of surprising tenderness, of glow
ing color, Of q secret yearning that &
its counterpart in the spirit Of every
man and woman alive.

TN the course Of q post norton on
the late international yacht races
q London newspaper remarked
that British seamanship was de-
feated by Yankee gadgets." This
referred, Of course, to the fact that the
Enterprise used various mechanical
labor.saving devices for the speedy
raising and lowering Of sails, whereas
the Shamrock relied exclusively on old
fashioned elbow grease.
Precisely the same complaint Is heard
whenever the subject Of American
movie domination comes up for dis
cussion in the European press Gas 1t
frequently does). Hollywoods position
Of leadership in the celluloid world Is
invariably attributed to the superiority
of Yankee gadgets," the sound record
ing apparatus being the greatest gadget
Of all.
There Is plenty Of truth In this. For
the development Of the purely me-
chanical part Of hlm production In
Hollywood has become one Of the major
miracles Of history. If only some Of
the other departments had kept pace
point In INDUCING In depressing and
fruitleSS speculation.
Some time ago, when the screen was
silent, q distinguished author returned
from his first trip to Hollywood and
announced the discovery that the
cameramen there were far, far ahead
Of the directors, actors scenario writ
ers and executives in efficiency, tntelli-
gence and general desirability. He
didn't have to 60 to Hollywood to make
this discovery. He could have attained
it by visiting any movie theater and
looking at the results Of Hollywoods
labors.
Now the cameraman co-operates with
another kind Of technician-the sound
nan-and he, too, has gone far ahead
Of the rest Of the procession. II one
tenth Of the genius that he expends in
the manipulation Of his complicated ap-
paratus could be diverted and used Ia
the preparation Of stories-but again
I'm wandering on into Utopia.
There has been much talk lately OF
the dreadful mechanical robot that Is
running art In our modern civilization.
Our finer esthetic sensibilities, we are
told, are being mangled in the ruthless
cogwheels OF the Machine Age.
far as Hollywood Is concerned, hoN>
IL Is the robot, the spirit Of the gadk
that most nearly approaches that goa.
Of perfection toward which all art
strives.
How often do we see pictures in which
the technical qualities-the photogra-
ply, sound reproduction, mechanical eff
fects-are inferior to the flesh, the blood
and the gray matter2 Almost never
For an excellent example Of just what
mean, have a look at "Hell's Angels.
There is one thing seriously lacking
in the robot, and that is pride. He
should be equipped with it at once, SO
that he will be able to stand on it and
refuse TO reproduce the drivel that is
fed to him by the creative minds OF
Hollywood.
