Awful 7 ruth
At Little

"The Awful Truth" outstand-
ing product of Hollywood's 1887
slap-happy comedy era, is being
revived at the Little Theater
this week. This is the film in
which Irene Dunno and Cary
Grant enacted the most hilari-
Gus screen version of the IA
miliar tale of a marriage that
apparently failed but was re-
vived after the parties found
that their new companions were
not entirely satisfactory.
Ralph Bellamy plays the
Western rancher who fascinateS
Miss Dunno after she and Mr..
Grant have split, and Alexander
darcy is the singing teacher
who provokes Cary'S Jealousy.
Mr.. Smith also contributes
much to the humor Of the pic
ture. Mr.. Smith is that agile
wire-haired terrier who was
known as Asia in "The Thin
Man." and in the wackey doings
of "The Awful Truth" he finds
himself the subject Of a custody
dispute during initial divorce

ABOUT "CITADEL"
Dear Andy:
Just saw a picture that should
be right down your alley
Citadel" I am asking Ray
Bell to let you see it as soon as
a print is available in Washing
ton.
In my biased opinion, "Cita-
del" is going to be rated among
the tops of the current season.
At least it has been years since
any picture so completely
knocked me over in our prOjec-
tiOn room.
Citadel on the screen has
stuff that the book could not
have. Wonder what the doctors
will say about it? 1t combines,
l think, some of the finest act.
ing, direction and writing ever
on the screen, with earthly en-
tertainment that the fans will
find to their complete liking.
The romantic proposal between
Robert DOnat and ROSaIind Rus
sell will melt the feminine
hearts; while, in sharp con-
trast, that birth scene (the
frantic, desperate young doctor
trying to give life to the breath
less infant) is as adult, as sheer
drama as anything I've seen.
That situation, SO far as l know,
never has been tackled by the
movies before.
Please try to see it and IL you
like it half as much as I did,
you'll know what to do about it.
Cordially,
OSCAR A. DOOB.
