Rowland Brown Proves That Movie Bad Actors Often Win
By DAN THOMAS NEA Service Writer

Hollywood--It's the reputation that counts. At least that seems to be the scheme of things around the cinema village. Here, the motto is. Whether good or bad--get 9 reputation"
 Of course that doesn't always work out. Take the case of James Murray for example. Jimmy was headed straight for the skies when, as an unknown he was picked by King Vidor for the lead in ''The Crowd" But he acquired the reputation of being too inter- ested in those intoxicating spirits and never got anywhere.
 Things don't always turn out that way, however. Of course, a good. reputation always proves beneficial. But there are. times when a bad one does the work just as<well.
 As proof of this we have, the example set by young Rowland Brown, one of the most colorful of our present day directors. Without a doubt, Brown is one of the most temperamental directors in the business. He has been di- ASSsAh6 AOA opSus SSoA ~H~ half. sv,
 Starts Many-Finishes Two
 During that time I don't know exactly how many pictures he has started. But he has finished only two--"Quick Mfllions'' and "Lib- erty Road" For one reason or another he walked out on all of the others before they were com pleted. &
 It isn't always good thing to have reputation for never fin ishing job. Yet Brown never experienced much difficulty in grabbing new assignments. He never argued with. studio bosses. Either he got his own way or he walked out. Then he would get another job at another studio.
 "He probably never will finish the pict6re-but if he does. he'll give us something worth while" That's what studio executives said about this temperainentai young director. And they continued gambling on him. with the RKO studio finally coming out a1wtn-, ner, chain n-gang camp. is the film just completed for RKO .@S Brown wrote the story himself. David Selznick,

studio. production chief, played Hong shot" by letting him have an absolutely free hand in its di- rection. And Brown has turned in a winner. s.5s
 Stays in Limclight
 Perhaps you're wondering just where Browns bad reputation en- ters into this picture. Only in this way---it did serve to. attract atten- ton to him, And he managed to make himself sufficiently colorfui to keep the producers interested in him. Of course, that method doesn't always work. But 1t did in Browns case. just as 1t has in 8 few others.
 B Harry , D'Arrast has recently Jumped into this class by walking out on the new Al Jolson picture. A number of directors were after that assignment. D'Arrast got 1t. Then things didn't go exactly to his liking so he went home. He won't have any trouble getting an- otier assignment at some other studio, either.

UNASHAMED AND THE

Foibles of modern youth, infatu- ation versus reality. and suspense to the nth degree figure in "Un- ashamed" in which Bayard Veil- Ter. famous author of "The Trial of Mary. Dugan' and "The Thir- teenth Chair" has created another thriller for the screen.
 The new Metro c oldwyn- Mayer picture, playing at the New Garden theater today and tomorrow. is re- nnarkable not only for an outstand- ing characterization by Helen Twelvetrees, and excellent work by a splendid cast, but for the daring originality of the story.
 The heroine is miiionaire's daughter. imbued with the modern 'youth's idea of freedom" She is infatuated with a fortune hunter. the two court disgrace, trying to- force consent. The brother, iearn- ing that his sister has been ruined, kilIs~the lover and faces trial with sealed lips to protect her reputa- tion.s The girl must. choose--her reputation or her brothers life. Out of this is woven an amazing bit of dkamatic writing, with sus- pense. mystery. comedy, heart inc terest. all worked into d remark- able piece of entertainment.
 Mss Twelvetrees in her charac- terization runs the gamut of emo-2 tions from a thoughtless flapper to. a woman who has tasted the bit-s ter dregs of life. Robert Young is vigorously convincing as the brother. while the fortune hunting lover is adeptly played by Monroe
