HE cinema, too, is having major

having given way to David Copper
field" an even better picture. And
If you think that the producers of the
latter haven't combed Mr.. Copper

the best of him in this tWo-hour en-

ONE of the important announce
" ments of the past week is that
Washington is about to have center
for foreign fllms-a place where those
European pictures which you have
been hearing about. will have local
mooring. Glad tidings these, as there
are many people who feel that their
entertainment diet is not complete
without the opportunity of keeping up
with neighbors across the sea. Eliza
beth Bergners, Charles Boyers and
cinema baSsos like Chaliapin will thus
have a chance to make themselves
known to Washington as they are at
their home plate
The Belasco should also not feel
that its pride has been assaulted.
WHAT of actors who divorce them
selves from standard production
companies and go out into the world
as apostles of their own companies,
their own stories, their own directors
and their own production chief? It
Is tricky buSineSS-the film business.
1t requires not the working alone of
one large brain, but the assembled
cooperation of many, many brains.
The actor who believes that he knows
''the works" is crazy. The producer
who believes that he knows 1.-The
works" is crazy. The writer who be-
lieves that his story is "the works" is
crazy. There must be give and take
among all concerned.
Wonder what will become of Ramon
Novarro now that he has agreed to
disagree with Metro-Goldwyn-Maye
IF CATHARINE CORNELL had
more leisure it might be fair to
conpain that her place is on the
screen as well as on the stage We
are one of those. however. who be-
lieve that while she is doing the the
ater the tremendous favor of playing
both Juliet and Elizabeth Barretts it
is not loyal to wish her anywhere but
where she is. She obviously hasn't
time to go to Hollywood right now.

L only makes certain facts re-
garding this successful revue
pertinent. Conceived by Irving Berlin
and Moss Hart, the music lyrics were
written by the former and the skits by
the latter. 1t was staged and lighted
by Hassard Short and produced at the
Music Box Theater in New York by
Sam H. Harris Saturday night, Octo-
Der 3, 1888. 1t remained at that play
house for 49 weeks and one night, the

of two weeks in Philadelphia, the revue
is said to have crossed Sl,200,000 be-
fore it left Broadway.
The original plan to tour LAS Thou

principals in this picture received their
biggest professional break" when ap-

The first and foremost is Rogers
himself. He is now in his fifty-f1fth
year, but it is only within the last de-
cade, or since talking pictures, that
he has really come into definite promi-
nence as an internationally famous
entertainer. And by a recent poll Of
theater exhibitors, Rogers today ranks
as the Number box Office attraction
among all the screen players. Then,
of course, there are his daily column
and Sunday newspaper features which
are read by millions Of people every
week.
One can readily say that the Bever-
ly Hills cowboy really came into his
own after the age Of 40.
