Bette Davis Has
Star Role in
Earle Film

Bette Davis, most promising Of
the Warner Brothers ingenues,
has been advanced to full stardom
and her first picture under the
stellar set-up called "Ex-Lady," is
to be seen as the main screen at
traction at the Earle Theater
this week.
Apparently realizing the i'm.
portance of her studio rating,
Miss Davis has abandoned the
careless and slovenly makeup
which marred earlier pictures, has
stopped racing with her lines, and,
il "Ex-Lady" gives a performance
which, if not distinguished, at
least proves she is paying atten-
ton to directors and is improving
as an actress.
Well Told Story
"Ex-Lady" is a sometimes dar'
ing exposition of the familiar
theme that marriage restricts and
handicaps independent people and
is wholly undesirable for career
couples. To make its point the
story frequently conjureS up very
frank dialogue, situations that are
torrid to a degree and a moral
that is strictly adult. But it nas
been cleverly handled by Director
Robert Florey and the adoption
of David Boehm employs credit
able speeches so that the aggre-
gate result is first-class screen en-.
tertainment.
Gene Raymond is the young
advertising man who is old-fash-
ioned enough to believe in matri-
mony. He gives the best perform
ance I have yet seen him offer.
Bette Davis, the convention-dety-
ing girl who looked on married
life as strangling liberty and in.
dividual initiative to finally dis
cover it has its advantages, wears
some stunning clothes, recites her
lines clearly and With expression.
She looks like conner. Frank
McHugh (miscast), Ferdinand
Gottschalk, Claire Dodd, Monroe
Owsley, Kay Strozzi, Alphonse Et-
jier, Bodil Rosing are in the sup
porting cast.
Good Dancing Act
Dorothy Stone has a new dane.
ing act to headline the stage
show. She has the assistance Of
Charles Collins whose grace and
agility have improved to the point
where he has passed Clifton Webb
as classical stopper. Together
they constitute an Al dancing
team. The program is opened
with the best animal act that has
come this way in some time.
Clever dogs and pony who can
blow "taps" on a tuba. Garner,
Wolf and Nakins have a low com.

Dickens classic, "Oliver Twist" "
has been carefully, if too pains
takingly transferred to the screen
in the sound version starring
Dickie Moore, which is now play
ing at Warmers Metropolitan.
The producers have carefully
taken every word and situation Of
the book, and placed them in au-
thentic costumes and settings, but
somehow the charm of the orig
inal has been lost in the film.
Instead. there is a rather Sordid
and very gloomy story that is
overdone and overacted.
The picture is one of almost
monotonous poverty and distress,
with no comedy or brightness to
enliven it. Dickens tale Of poor
workhouse waif who is taught to
be a pickpocket and is finally
adopted by a benevolent gentle
man, was, although it dealt with
a terrible side of life, a fine and
entertaining piece of writing, with
many cheerful spots, but these

his family, he makes a new start
in the bakery business and with
all hands cooperating sees his
venture slowly pointed toward
success.
Meanwhile, Magnate Service is
having his troubles. His partners
want him to sell the store before
receivership arrives. His wife is
q spendthrift and his children
are thoughtless and not much in
terested in his business troubles.
Service is just about to accept the
offer Of q chain syndicate and
sacrifice tradition and family
pride when he meets Benton. A
talk with his former bookkeeper
reinstills him with a fighting
spirit and courage and he decides
to carry on. A rainbow is break
ing as the last reel fades out.
Barrymore Shines
In a character that sometimes
reminds of his "Kringelein,"
Actor Lionel Barrymore is su-
perb. One Of Hollywood's supreme
acting technicians, it is a delight
to watch his catalogue of express
SionS, to observe the maSterful
way in which he emphasizes lines
and the manner in which he en-
ploys his hands and his voice to
impress acting points. His scenes
with Lewis Stone are all beau
tifully acted. Bonita Hume, Phil
lips Holmes, Elizabeth Allan, Doris
Lloyd and Billy Bevan are fine in
the other important roles. The
Clarence Brown direction is dig
nified and skillfully builds to the
optimistic finale.
Good Stage Band
On the stage is Isham Jones
orchestra as the headline attrac-
tion. Melodious rhythms, good
singing in which Ben Alleys
tenor voice is featured and a
piano medley Of Composer Jones'
hit compositions sent the act off
to a rousing hit. The routine
stresses music rather than COM
edy and rates with best of the
stage bands.
Al Trahan's piano comedy is
familiar but went over Solidly
with the audience. I still wish
he could cut five minutes Of his
extended fun making to let Lady
Yukona Cameron try out what
sampled as a fine voice.
Weist and Stanton, plus their
Stoogies, offer knockout fun with
their st. James Infirmary dane
ing as the highlight. France and
LAPEL in trapeze feats and Phil
Lampkin'S Easter overture COM
plete the stage doings. The Fox
Movietone rounds out better than
average entertainment.
The Washington times., 1933-04-15
Oliver Twist Opens at the Met

have been mislaid and a dreary
and depressing production is left.
Dickie Moore does well in the
title role, and is the most con-
vincing of the lineup. The re-
mainder turn in performances
that are a trifle too broad for be-
lief. Irving Pichel as Fagin, Will
liam Boyd as Bill Skies and the
rest of the troupe of bad men
are a little too villainous, and the
nice too nice for realism. How
ever, the production is praisewor-
thy for it's conscientious portrayal
of life in the by-gone days, and
it's nicely Of adoption. How much
children will like it is a question
that must be answered by whether
their tastes run to the gruesome
and melancholy. For adults, it is
searching representation of past
cruelties to the young.

ing Bing Crosby, called "Sing,
Bing, Sing" and the customary
neWSreel.-J, K. v.

The story, inconSequential
enough, combines song and ro-
nance with a locale of the Swiss

world-famous Italian tenor, tired
of the eternal routine of con-
cert and opera slips away from
his manager and takes a holi-
day; he meets a fresh, young
chap with easy manners and a
sense of humor, who is persuaded
to impersonate the famous one
with a view to helping gain the
desired freedom, too, as a lark.

'Sweepinss New
Keith's Feature

"SWeepingS," with Lionel Bar
rymore, is a tense commentary
on the futility of parental hope.
Adapted from the novel by Les
ter Cohen, RKO presents at
Keith's Theater this tragic story
of an average father, ambitious
for the future of his children.
Too true, perhaps, to be enter
tainment, but excellently enacted,
and well worth attention.
Daniel Parkway and his bride
find opportunity in the village OF
Chicago. Left with four children,
Daniel looks to their physical
welfare until money has estab-
lshed each one in a path not OF
his choice. Battling to undo
these false departures, Barrymore,
alone in his desire, learns the
futility and hopelessneSs Of mo
good" progeny.
Depending almost entirely upon
the forceful and superb ability OF
Mr.. Barrymore, the story moves
to tragic close with only a glim-
mer of hope shining through.
Hence patrons who find perfect
fineSse and consummate skill in
acting the most important mat
tiers are apt to consider Sweep
ings" a very fine picture.
Eric Linden turns in straight
forward portrayal as Freddie
Parkway, George Meeker, as Bert;
Alan Dinehart, as Thane; William
Gargan, as Gene, and Gloria
Stuart, as Phoebe. Gregory Ratoff
as the esteemed clerk and Helen
Mack Is Mamie complete a sup
porting cast of stellar merit.
Once again it is rather the ex-
ceptional flash of inspired acting,
the carefully depicted glance
which causes "Sweepings" to
stand out as a good performance.
Pathe News shows the Wash
ington opening baseball game with

"No thanks" he replied. "I've
got just one thousand dollars to
my name. I just got a tip
that's supposed to be a sure
thing. The odds on the horse
are about 20-to-1.
I'm going to the track this
afternoon and stake the whole
roll on that nag. If he wins,
I'll clean up enough to take me
home and get a fresh start
back there. If he loses, maybe
I'll accept that offer of yours.
Wait until the race is over and
then we'll see."
Smith departed for the track.
Arriving there, he walked up to
a bookmaker and put down the
entire roll on the 20-to-1 shot.
He was in the paddock near
the homestretch when the race
started. Around the track he
watched the horses fly, his heart

so on.
The race was almost over
and his horse was second, two
lengths behind the leader. In a
flash, he realized that he was a
beaten man. There wasn't a
chance for him to win. So,
snatching a gun from his
pocket, he turned about and
put a bullet through his brain.
Whether the noise startled
that pony or not, no one will
ever know. But, as the shot
resounded, that leading horse
stumbled. And the suicides
