Star Dust
= Sing You Sinners
\ Langdon's Return
X Aliens a Cop
; by Virginia Vale

At LAST Bing Crosby has
4 \ made an outstandingly
good picture. Apparently Para
mount should have found out
long ago that it's a good idea to
hitch a mans job to his hobby;
that's what happened in "Sing
You Sinners" for Bing plays a
young man who makes his for
tune, accidentally, in horse rae
ing.
The picture is uproariously funny,
and has two good songs. 1t also

And such is the kingdom of Kafir
ours; a mixture of all breeds; USE
less animal except for his intermin-
able barking. With no set standard Of
breed lines, nondescript looked down
upon by African natives and whites
alike. How the word became in such
common usage in America is matter
of conjecture.
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1938-09-08

has an excellent cast, including
Elizabeth Patterson and Fred Mac
Murray. incidentally, it looks as if
the character Bing plays, "Joe Bee
be-" might be part of new cycle,
so far as heroes are concerned.
"Joe" is ne'er-do-well, that kind
OF young man who, in real life, is so
badly adjusted to life that he's just
all wrong.
And along comes "FOur Daugh-
ters," a grand picture in which John
Garfield plays ''Mickey Borden"
another young man who's off on the
wrong foot. mickey" is bitter and
reckless and rude, and Garfield
plays him magnificently. And that
is no easy trick, for Priscilla Lane
is very good indeed, and young MIR.
Garfield has plenty of competition
from May Robson, Frank McHugh
and Claude Rains.

John Carradine, an excellent ac-
tor, turns in such a swell perform
ance in a bit part in "Alexander's
Ragtime Band" that he deserves
bigger and better roles and many of
them. He had hung up record for
himself on the stage before he took
to the movies, and if he doesn't grab
stellar honors in movies soon it's GO
ing to be because the producers
can't recognize real talent.
