STRAND

Throbbing human emotions are
blended in hauntingly beautiful
symphony of love and drama in
Break of Hearts" starring Kath-
arine Hepburn and the dashing
Continental star, Charles Boyer,
now at Warner Brothers Strand
theater.
Love, glorified through self
sacrifice, is the theme of the story,
which runs the scale from laugh
ter to tears in inspiring harmonies.
The film tells the story of a young
composer VINO marries a great or
chestra leader but leaves him
through pride when she believes
her love is only an incident in his
career. Later they both come to
the realization that their love for
each other is the only worth while
thing in their lives.
AS Constance, the young COM
poser, Miss Hepburn is appealingly
tender and compelling. Charles
Boyer, as the petted and tempera-
mental musician, is at his scintil-
lating best. Masterful direction is
supplied by Philip Moeller and
Jane Loring, associate. John Beal
and Jean Hersholt have important
roles.
The companion feature Is "Gin-
ger" starring vivacious little Jane
Withers, who almost stole the pic
ture from Shirley Temple In
bright Eyes. together with o. p.
