Samuel Goldwyn is after the
famous Walter Winchell to make
an opera for him during his one
month vacation period. The price
quote daS offered is rs G's. Not
bad during ones four-week rest
period. Every time Jack Mulhall
appears in a brief bit in a pic
ture land he only seems to get
bits these days. the preview audi
ences break into spontaneous ap-
plause. Now, producers, that be-
speaks for itself the gentleman'S
popularity so how's about giving
him a chance for a real come
back?
In the case of Enrol Flynn every
one seems to give all the credit
for his success to Michael Curtiz
who directed him in Captain
Blood" 1t is said that he worked
hours with Mr.. F. projecting his
histrionicS.
AS a matter Of fact after the
first couple of days shooting,
Harry Brown (the producer of
the epic) went to CurtiZ and said,
Let the boy act it as he feels
it and then he'll be more natural"
Mr.. C. Took his advice and I don't
need to tell you of the finished
product - that's already making
history. hear tell that Franchot
Tones parents Judge and Mrs.
Tone (now that their son is
safely married) will go on separ-
ate routes.
The British censors took one
look at "Ah Wilderness" and then
and there decided to cut out the
two high lights of the whole film.
100000, M.-G.-M. said, IF you cut
those scenes, the picture will not
be released in England" 10000
they didn't cut them and therein
lies some sort of moral, but I
wouldn't be knowing what. Dor

Because of the popular appeal
which Magnificent ObseSsion"
possesses, indicated by the partic-
ularly large attendance at RKO

Louis A. Douglas novel is to re-
main for a second week at the
Fifteenth Street theater.
The leading feminine role in
Magnificent Obsession" is por-
trayed by the delightful Irene
Dunno, remembered for her work
in "Cimarron," Back Street" and,
more recently, Roberta"
Opposite her is cast Robert Tay-
lor, who scored in Broadway Mel
ody of 1886" Charles Butterworth
with a long list of laughter Great
ing successes to his credit, is prom
inently cast, as is the character
comedian, henry Armetta.
Others in the cast, which has
been pronounced a perfect one,
includes Betty FurneSs, Ralph
Morgan and Sara Haden.

WiIderness"
Here Again

"Ah. wilderness, the Eugene
O'Neill play adapted to the
screen, returned yesterday to the
Columbia Theater for its second
run in Washington.
Considering the fact that 1t IS
an O'Neill play, it is a very simple
story, but one of majestic strength
nevertheless. Its greatness hes
in its powerful and vivid charac-
terizationS and to do them justice,
a notable cast of actors is as
sembled.
Eric Linden, the bewildered
youth; Lionel Barrymore, as the
father, and Wallace Berry as the
tippler, contribute roles that may
long be remembered with pleasure.
The story of a small commun-
ity and simple, everyday folk
somewhere will touch upon the
hearts of us all. 1t is a story of
all our yesterdays, in a way. with
memories of childhood still dear
despite the dimneSs that has
come with wears,

Robson
Scores At
Belosco

"Three Kids and a Queen" Uni
versal picture current at the Be
laSco, is a personal triumph for
that veteran trouper, May Robson.
The story itself is not by any
means perfect, it is composed OF
variety of many elements,
blended, one suspects, with an
eye to the mass screen appeal.
Yet Notwithstanding these i'm
projections the story is an enter
tanning one. Pure hokum, melo-
drama, heart throbs and all the
tricks of the stage and screen
are merged in it, and while it will
not hold you spellbound, it will
keep you contentedly in your seat.
OF the various elements that
go to make up this plot, the
most enjoyable one is comedy.
Henry Armetta, a master OF
tangled English, and Herman
Bing, ace buffoon, score heavily
on the riSibilities Of the audience.
Juvenile parts are taken by
Frankie Darro, william Barrud,
Charlotte Henry and William
Benedict, all acquitting themsel-
YES we'll in very effective char
acterizations.
Yet it is May Robson who DOM
mates this performance with a
telling and forceful performance.
Reality and strength are two ele-
ments she brings to her role and
gives us, probably not great
artistic triumph, but a darn good
master artisans job.
In spite of the fact that there
is a little gangsterism and some
shooting in this film, believe
that children will enjoy it and I
unheSitatingly recommend it for
them, especially young lads Of the
electric train age.
The subsidiary features include
a short subject on Stephen Foster
in which you will hear many old
Southern melodies.
A travel subject, children of
the Mile" proves Of surprising
interest and the usual news reel
completes most satisfactory bill.
