 / Captain Peter Freuchen's thrill Hing story of life and love, among the natives in this northernmost point inhabited by mankind has been faithfully and Beautifully re- corded. Particularly amazing is the moral code of these Eskimos which permits a husband to have more than one wife, and also to 'Iend' his wives to his friends on occa- sion. It serves as the root of one of the strongest dramatic situa- tions ever to reach the talking screen. Mala, mighty hunter and leader of his tribe, is the center of powerful drama in which the wrong done to his Eskimo wife by white man is vividly revenged. His tenderness of feeling for his family in early sequences wins a sympathy that holds the audience spellbound as the epic scenes un- folded.
 Great lspectacles in the picture include the caribou charge in which more than 4000 of the horned beasts go on the rampage; walrus hunts in which native boats are overturned and men injured in attempts to escape knife-sharp tusks; native hunting whales in smal boats; blizzards and icy hur- ricanes at temperatures that defled human life; polar bear hunts and native spear-fshing.

 George Raft. who, to date has played tough menace" roles, has been keeping something from his public. Few if any ball room dancers can equal his rhythmic technique and stage presence. His "Bolero" performance as the fa- nous Raoul, idol of London and Paris, is superb.
 Then there's Sally Rand with that fiamboyant fan which startled half the world during the Chicago Worlds Fair, and returned her to her first love, the movies. She has an exciting screen presence and Is a competent actress.
 Carole Lombard who wears slinky gowns as no other blonde siren of the screen, reveals tech nique equal to the other two. In two numbers she does with George Raft-"Bolero" and "Raftero. ."- she introduces an entirely new Lombard, one we hope to see more often.

Evidence accu- mulates against one of the chrac- ters, and the climax brings a start ling demonstration of the fact that even apparent actual proof of any, thigh is often open to doubt.
 In addition to Stevens, Miss Gib- son and Dinehart, the cast of '"The Crosby Case" which was directed by Edwin l.. Marin, includes Skeets Gallagher. William Collier, Sr,, Warren Hymer, Edward Van Sloan and John Wray.
