STATE FAIR"
OPENS AT KEITH'S

Writing new chapter in the brief
history of real all-star pictures, Fox
Films drew upon the finest talent
Of Hollywood to bring Phil Strong's
Literary Guild prize novel, State
Fair" to the screen.
1t opens today at Keith's. The
cast chosen to portray the characters
of the best selling novel includes
Janet Gaynor, VIII Rogers, Lew
Ayres, Sally Eilers, Norman Foster,
Frank Craven, Louise Dresser and
Victor Jory. There is also Blue Boy,
900 pounds of grand champion
Hampshire boar.
In assembling this imposing array
of star talent, Fox upset precedent
in two ways. 1t went beyond its
own studio contract roster to secure
Ayres as Miss Gaynor's sweetheart,
and it chose all of the stars to fit
roles, rather than building parts to
suit player personalities.

larry enough, that goes back to the
first principles of movie making.
This important step is labeled
"narratage" by Producer Jesse L.
Lasky and is said to serve as proof
for one thing that the cinema is at
its best when it forgets the hide
bound conventions of the drama,
with its forced depictions of life
within the confines of proscenium.
There is no attempt in THE
Power and The Glory" to adhere to
a chronological sequence in telling
the story. The scene shifts from
the past to the present exactly as
it would if some one were relating
an interesting yarn to a friend.
The death of Tom Garner. rail-
road magnate, recalls to Henry, his
lifelong friend, the manner in which
Garner reached the heights of sue
cess from a humble start as track
walker. Toms life unfolds itself on
the screen. 1t is bitter story of a
tragic tale told without compromise
and with none of the usual ameni-
ties which have ruined similar
screen plots.
Spencer Tracy, as Tom, is said to
contribute a sympathetic portrayal
Of man who yearns for happiness
only to find that power and the
glory" are truly in the hands of
something greater than mankind.
Colleen Moore, as Sally, makes a
triumphant return to the screen in
the leading feminine roles. Others
in the cast are Ralph Morgan,
Helen Vinson and Russell Simpson.
William K. Howard directed.

The story revolves around John
Barrymore, a stern, driving general
manager of an air line company.
Clark Gable is pilot Of storm
caught plane from Puntas Arenas.
Robert Montgomery is pilot Of a
plane crossing towering mountains.
Helen Hayes is the fear ridden wife
of Gable. Lionel Barrymore is
doddering old inspector Of air
planes, and Myrna 10y is the wife
Of George Gargan. pilot Of the plane

that a highly dramatic plot de-
velops.
From the pen of Antoine de
Saint EXuupery, an actual pilot
over the very same air line in South
America which is so wildly deS-
cribed in the picture, and directed
by Clarence Brown, one Of the
foremost directors in Hollywood
who also holds a transport pilots
license. Might Flight has been
produced and acted by such multi
star cast in an effort to give the
general public a clear and dramatic
idea Of the thrills of air mail pilots,
and the very human fears OF their
wives and sWeethearts.
In Might Flight" stride forward
has been taken in musical accom-
paniment with the advent Of tuning
musical scores to airplane motors
which was attained by Herbert
Strohart, famous co-composer OF
rose Marie" in the score he com
posed for Night Flight"
Previously airplane pictures have
occasionally grown monotonous be-
cause of the unrelieved drone OF the
motors. No one seemed to think
that a musical accompaniment was
possible.
For this drama of air mail flying,
Strohart fabricated a musical score
which. through clever work by the
sound department, is heard in two
different ways.
When the physical plunge of the
plane forward through a storm is to
be emphasized, the motor sound is
the loudest When the emotional
reactions Of the pilot, Clark Gable,
is the important feature, the sound
of the motor is diminished, and the
musical accompaniment is brought
up in volume.
Outstanding in lesser roles are
such stage and screen talent as
William Gargan, c. Henry Gordon,
Leslie Fenton, Harry Beresford,
Frank Conroy and Ralf Harolde.

supplementary program of extra

"ANN VICKERS"
OPENS TODAY AT CIRCLE.

Ann Vickers," with Irene Dunno
and Walter Huston co-starred, is
the first novel by Sinclair Lewis
written since he won the Nobel
prize for literature-and it is &C
claimed by critics as his greatest.
This film opens today at the Circle
theater.
As is always the case with Lewis
novels, Ann Vickers" has a timely
and vital theme. The story por-
trays the modern American wom-
men, the business woman, the
social worker. the successful fem
mist. Ever striving for success and
acclaim, Ann Vickers must ultimate
ly choose between those factors in
her life and the love for which she
has always yearned.
Reports from all theater sectors
are that Irene Dunno, cast in the
title role, has the strongest and
most dramatic role of her career.
AS Ann Vickers" she is the
undetermined girl who is brilliant
enough to win success after love
and romance are denied her.
She is the woman of the world
who becomes the more bewildered
by the biological urge with every
higher step in her career. She is
the slave of ambition and a prisoner
of love.
Wooed by men in leading stations
in society, disillusioned in her eff
forts at reform, she finds satisfying
love only as the years crowd in on
her and old enemies seek her down.
fall
Outstanding for gripping power
and realism are the prison and
courtroom scenes in the picture. In
the former, shocking brutalities are
mercilesSly exposed and striking
contrasts in methods of penal adj
miniStration are afforded.
In the cast with Miss Dunno and
Walter Huston are Edna May
Oliver. Bruce Cabot, Conrad Nagel,
Ferdinand GottSchalk. Mitchell
Lewis and Rafaela Ottiano. John
Cromwell directed.
