good things as Naughty Marietta" a
secret one from another (oh, yeahO.
ONE of the wisest things that
" M-G-M has done is to wait and
launch Nelson Eddy in a full-Sized
role and one that might really amount
to something. Although somebody
had a brain storm and stuck him
hastily into Student Tour" when
that seemed on the verge of founder
ing-a brain storm that unfortunately
didn't do anybody any good-Mr. Eddy
has for the most part been kept out
of the cinema racket, and now he
emerges as a new singer who should
have something of the success that
was Lawrence Tibbett's few years
back. His singing is strong and manly
and of excellent pitch, and his acting,
while yet not of Theater Guild caliber,
nevertheless does not interfere with
his voice. his personality being pleas
antly and informally adapted to the
lady with whom he plays.
If Mr. Eddy will tear the hearts out
of whole fleets Of ladies with his sing
ing, Miss Macdonald will find her
self new public. too. She has never
been in finer voice, never better look
ing. and when she rips out that Sweet
Mystery Of Life" all gentlemen of
taste and refinement will Immediately
want to meet her.
Then again, wonder of wonders!
She does not wake up in an ark-sized
bed, yawning and stretching, doesn't
throw her hands towards the sun and
suddenly explode into an aria before
her rolls and coffee. Oh, brother Van
Dyke. how nicely you have been to
our Nell-what notes you have put
! in her throat-and with what restraint
you have surrounded her! In the
words of somebody, she is yours-all
yours-you have decked her out anew

her bitterest enemy will like her!

an overdose Of music. Mr. Eddy and

as Miss Moore didn't need it in Zone
