One Halny Afternoon" may not
be highly popular at the box Office,
lacking, as it does, names which
bring out the crowds. But we are
confident that those who do see it
will feel pleased with their choice
of entertainment. Ability to enter
tain, not drawing power, it seems to
us, should be the real test of a
good picture. "One Rainy After
noon," in our opinion, definitely is
a good picture.
Setting In Paris
Fairly new to movie audiences are
both leads, Francis Lederer, who as
Philippe Martin, unimportant
French actor, is very commemorate,
and Ida Lupino, who as Monique,
is charming and pleasant to watch.
The setting for "One Rainy Aft
ternoon" is Partisan, and concerns
what happens on rainy afternoon.
And this Is what happened:
Philippe keeps a rendezvous at a
theater with the wife of an impor-
tant French official, kisses her. Then
he discovers he has kissed an un-
known woman - the usher had
placed him in the wrong seat.
Members of the Paris Purity
League demand an investigation,
Philippe goes through a trial that
Is highly amusing in its absurdity.
Present are Moniques father, M.
Pelerin (Joseph Cawthorn), her fl
ance, Count Alfredo Donstelli ERIK
Rhodes) and the judge. The latter
role, although unimportant, is played
by Donald Meek so that it SparkleS
with humor.
Wanting to attend the trial, but
never getting there, is Hugh Herbert,
who as Toto is responsible for the
movies best comedy. We don't re-
call his ever being funnier. Roland
Young also is behind number of
hearty laughs.
To get on with the story, Philippe
is fined, hasn't the money to pay it.
Monique, secretly she thinks, pays
it. Philippe suddenly finds him
self the toast of Paris as the result
of publicity surrounding the trial.
Bot" Following the hoy meets girl, boy
loses girl, boy gets girl" theme.
Philippe loses Monique because of
a meeting with the lady of the the
alter rendezvous. But he wins her
when she joins his act at the
theater.
Companion Picture Novel
Around this simple plot, Producers
Pickford and Lasky and Director
Rowland v. Lee built good show,
a show that is refreshing in many
ways, a show that is entertaining
from beginning to end. 1t deserves
good patronage, and will, we hope,
be the first of more worthwhile pic
lures from the new concern.
Lew Ayres, Florence Rice and
Benny Baker romp through Panic
on the Air" Loew's second picture
of the twin bill, to provide an in
teresting show around a plot that
is different from most. AS radio
newscaster, Jerry (Mr. Ayres) takes
a hand in solving crime, and with
his assistant, Andy (Mr. Baker, dis
closes a murder, wins the girl in the
case, and scoops" the police de-
partment.
Racy and youthful, Panic on the
Air" serves adequately to balance
Loew's BILL providing, with "One
Rainy Afternoon" both romance
and adventure.

THE Golden Arrow" is of the

Night" school of comedy, adapted
from play by Michael Arlen

lines as are found in some film
romances, Miss Davis plays the role
of "the richest girl in the world"

love with him, her money and the
cosmetic company's publicity direc-

a wealthy but dumb neo-socialite
discovers that Daisy is a former
cafeteria cashier, and that the
"heiress" business is a "build-up" to
sell beauty cream.
