Great Waltz Back
At Columbia

THE Great Waltz" melodious
biography of Johann Strauss and
one of the best musical films of
1888, returned to the Columbia yes
terday for third week on F. street.
In making it, Metro not only spent
a lot OF money to give it pictorial
beauty, but a very fine cast headed
by Luise Rainer. Fernand Gravel
and Millza Korjus. The latter, for
all her neWness to the screen in this
country, is the one you will remem-
Der longest, for to the melodies of
Strauss she brings one of the finest
voices the movies have uncovered.
The film is at its very best when
Miss Korjus is giving life to the
waltz kings lifting music.
AS Strauss, the tormented rebel
artist who thought both the politics
and the music of his period needed
changing, M. Gravel is back in role
worthy of his talents. Miss Rainer
also gets a better break than she
has had recently. this time as the
petite and passionate frau of the
whimsical Johann.
IT you like the spirit of a now
dead Vienna, of the Vienna that was
gay and charming always, you had
better not miss this film. J.C.

compete in forcefulness with this
eloquent account of the 100000

have neither a home nor a home

narrated most hauntingly when the

upon the technique of rich mothers

The next step, positive where the
first is negative, is to find an agree

possessed of a whale of lot OF

for a movie stars stomach. The

the players don't dare take chances
on even a quick bite. Nor do they
dare turn them over to friends or
needy institutions.

player became violently ill through

Cecil B. De Mile, who will never

for a girl of good face and figure
who has gold teeth.
If and when he finds the right
type, he intends to cast her with
Barbara Stanwyck and Joel McCrea
in his period film of the transcon-
tinental railway builders, Union
Pacific"
But more startling yet is the fact
that Laurie Lane, who has been
very worried about wearing glitter
ing gold braces on her teeth, is the
leading contender because of them |!
Seeing her today, De Mile said
she is almost certain to get the
part. -
He just wants to keep on looking

ators. brave, fine, badly trained kids
equipped with a bunch of flying
crates and shown how horrible it
is to send them on missions which
can only end in death. The one
situation is repeated over and over
again. The impossible order from
headquarters comes through, the
commanding officer RACES against
its ghastliness, the boys try to carry
it out, several are killed and then
headquarters sends out even young
er, more badly trained requirements
for the next chapter on butchery.
The cumulative effect is practically
terrific, where, less competently
handled, it might have seemed an
excess of repetition.
Between bouts with the enemy,
conflicts which represent some vivid
aerial graphing and have a quality
OF realism that is pretty fine, the
young alrmen come to grips with
the largest army of brandy bottles
ever assembled at an airdrome.
Sometimes the boys win, sometimes
the brandy; but this is the happier
variety of battle for it produces
the comedy and the melody which
eases the strain of the more deadly
fighting.
Good acting by the all-male cast
dhere being not even a dream girl
around the Dawn PATROL premises)
is rule to which there is not an
exception. Mr. Niven as a combined
flying fool and drunken sot makes
the combination an especially ap-
pealing one, thing of stern drama
and high comedy at just the right
intervals. 1t ought to win him more
attention than Hollywood has given
him in the past.
Flynn, with no women around in
whose presence he can become self
conscious, or whatever it is he be-
comes, is a much better actor than
usual in the role of a gallant gentle
man flyer who lives in anguish when
he sees what the war does to others.
AS for himself, he likes it so long
as he can regard it as a personal
proposition.
Behind these two, there's a large
and capable supporting cast, headed
by Basil Rathbone, who, to this de-
partment's knowledge, never has
done bad job
There is great deal of beautiful
photography in Dawn Patrol" the
kind which serves not merely to
ornament the story, but to provide
very eloquent contrast with some
OF the ugly turnings of the human
affairs with which it deals.
After the grimness of the feature
comes a stage show that is merrily
IN the spirit of Christmas. 1t is
called Jingle Bellies" and anything
so called has to be built around the
Roxyettes, that very capable chorus
which is practically, and rightfully,
a fixture at the Earle. The girls do
three very pretty routines, two Of
them with toy motifs, the other a
graceful minuet.
The remainder of the show is COM
passed OF Loyals Arabian Stations,
one OF the better of the current dog
acts, because it has strong comedy
flavor; Jack Gray and his sextet of
singing debutantes, the zany Michon
brothers in their comedy acrobatics
and LYDIA Sue.
There is nothing extraordinary
about it, but it is pleasant enough.

Ferdinand the Bull'
Now at Trans.Lux

Ferdinand, the bull with the deli
cate ego, is the Trans-Lux Christmas
present to Washington, the Walt
Disney film version of Munroe Leafs
literary masterpiece being Low the
featured short there. If you have
not yet seen Ferdinand the Bull"
you still owe yourself treat, for
the quiet flower fancier is one of
the better screen characters of the
season. Mr.. Disney has brought him
from the book to the cinema me-
dium without losing even a little
bit OF his magnificent character and
the film translation, you may b
sure, Is completely faithful to both
the spirit and the content of the
original. And that Is about all you
can ask, for this original had plenty
OF both spirit and content.
The rest of the shorts on the pro-
gram vary in content from Charlie
McCarthy's daft antics to look at
the bottom of the sea at the Springs
OF Silver in Florida, to a visit to
the spot where summer now has
gone, Rio de Janiero.
And the news cameras have
ranged the world for the pictorial
elaboration upon the stories you
have read in your favorite news
paper. There are, among other
things, a panoramic view of the
latest Russian military review and
some glimpses of the latest bloody
doings in China, not CHEEKY Christ

that Hollywood has dealt you this

Lew Ayres and Lionel Barrymore,
especially, endow the picture with an
intensity and an integrity which
make you warm to its story of a
young man trying to find himself

They have some fine scenes, this
young doctor at medicines threshold
and this crusty old wizard of
diagnostician who ably hides his
heart of gold-scenes that are full
of good humor, good sense and some

equal Importance, is the chap who
gets down the stretch ahead of the
studios fair-haired boy.
Neither the narrative, nor the
philosophy of Dawn Patrol" are
new, but that is of small Importance.
The film is exciting, full of grimly
beautiful flying sequences, alternate
ly taut with tragedy and relaxed
with comedy. These are qualities
which outweigh any fundamental
resemblance it may have to other
war dramas.
In way, and the comparison is
meant flatteringly, Dawn PATROL
Is kind of Journeys End" with
the characters and the locale moved
from the trenches to an airdrome.
The drama is heightened accord
lngly, for war looks more brutal
and futile and heartbreaking on the
new scene than the old.
Behind its competent acting.
Dawn Patrol derives its force
from its simplicity. The script writ
ers have artfully avoided the tempta-
ton to become fancy as to either
situation or dialogue They have
simply taken bunch of young avi-
