J singing "I Don't Care" her IA
NOUS song in which she was
, wont to prance all over the stage
In arm-waving lyrical hysteria.
Her act or her name didn't mean
much to the youthful audience of
pleasure seekers at Atlantic City.
For the Eva that was and the
TanguWay that is still trying. I
gave her great big hand. The
more so, because I am told, her
. eyesight is almost entirely gone.
Gina Malo, the petite French
! cherub who supports Jack Dona-
hue in Sons O. Guns" seems to
! have all that is needed to attain
footlight fame. They say she is
a little New York girl once known
as Janet Flynn who joined an
Albertina Rasch ballet, went
abroad and acquired her Parlez
Vous in the Paris music halls.
No matter. 1t sounds very genu-
inc and she looks the part. The
|, producers call her "the greatest
sensation since Anna Held
. That's laying it on fairly thick.
But you are bound to hear more
of Gina Malo.

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, July /.
What is the greatest talkie made
to date? ,....
I have put this question to many
famous Hollywood stars, directors
and executives, and have received
some interesting and significant
answers.
It was apparent early in the
quest that Universaps "All Quiet
on the Western Front" would be
a leading contender, and that
Metro Goldwyn-Mayer's prison pic
tupre, THE Big House" "a Cosmo'
politan production), would give 1t
a close race.
D. w Griffith said: II believe
that "An Quiet on the Western
Front" is the greatest talkie be-
cause IL is the most adept com
bination of the technique OF the
old silent films with the new
medium of sound and dialogue" "
Wallace Beery also picks this war
epic. Milestone doesn't stall or
spare anything" explains Wallie.
"He tells the truth and that's
that" Samuel Goldwyn and Fred
Niblo are among the others choos-
ing "All Quiet" In every case,
the realism Of the picture was
stressed as the reason for tie
award.
"Big House" Liker
"The Big House" finds an adj
herent in Carl Laemmle, jr., pro-
ducer of "All Quiet on the Western
Front" Whatever mental reser.
vations the young producer may
have, he is strong in his praise Of
the prison story. 1T is the most
realistic talkie I have seen to

Au Revoir

Hollywood abounds with sad
stories of those who come to the
film colony with high hopes and
depart defeated. Today, Paul
Guertzman, 17-year-old protege Of
Jesse Lasky, bid this department
farewell. Two years ago he
dogged Mr.. Lasky's footsteps in
Paris until the producer brought
him over here to become an
actor. Then came the talkies
and Paul's accent was fatal. He's
finally to be sent back to Paris,
but Paramount is not cutting
him entirely adrift. He'll be
given a job in the French studio
Of the company.
