HOLLYWOOD. May 90 CN.A.N.A.).--
The most distinguished audience which
Hollywood has yet assembled saw Tues
day night the premiere Of the most
widely discussed picture which has ever
come out Of its studios.
"Hells Angels" q gelatin record, es-
&imated to have cost 81 900 900 and to
have taken three years to make, proved
to the famous that there we're new and
magnificent things TO be done with air
photography. It convinced the direc-
tors Of the village that the aerial dog
night had never been really presented to
the public before; that Zeppelin photog-
xaphy had some angles as yet unpre-
sented, and that war is still very good
and snowy movie material.
Directed by young Howard Hughes,
oil millionaire, and James Whale, the
English director who Is responsible for
both stage and movie version Of Jour
ney's End" the picture has some truly
remarkable moments.
AS q story It shows its age and reveals
the fact that years Of making and re-
making, subStitutions and heavy con-
9erences do not turn out distinguished
gelatin.
Courageous as the stories Of movie
land have been Of late, the tale is one
Of sheer tragedy from beginning to end,
but tragedy with such q tinge of glory
20 it that the sordid Is completely wiped
out.
But since this story's inception the
same theme, or similar themes, have
been done In the studios Of Hollywood,
and 50 far as story goes in a manner
Tar superior to this one. Subtitle, that
calculating angle of movies which we
have practically outgrown with talkies,
come back into this one with disillu-
Siontng effect.
In most cases they are redundant.
The pictures which are marvels Of di-
rection-and we turn them out Of here
these days, popular chatter to the con-
trary-manage to clarity the story with
out the aid Of the subtitle.
English subtitleS, flashing on the
screen during the German dialogue in
the Zeppelin sequences, robbed the
scene of reality and brought to mind
the marvellous work of Director Jack
Blystone in another Zeppelin epic,
~Sky Hawk" in which the German dia-
1ogie, uninterrupted, still left the action
clear to the audience This, because
Of the excellence Of the handling and
the perfection Of the players
