Lie Ol1 -IldIlucU1eSS WIFI WHICH IIlc
English handle this type of material
(there's that Anglomanic again)
might have helped THE Housekeep-
ers Daughter" but with the Eng
lish o. '1erwise occupied, the specu-
lation is doubly pointless.
It's intervals of slapstick, some so
fortnight as to deserve the word
"corny," are the best spots of the
picture in which Adolphe Menjou,
John Hubbard, William Gargan and
Peggy Wood rally to the rescue of
Miss Bennett in her grief at being
miscast. 1t is necessary to stick
around for these to appear, for the
picture starts not only slowly but
confusingly. Once out of the mys-
terry stage, however, it moves zip
pingly along through such incidents
as crack-brained innocent's mur-
der of a show girl, an Egyptologist's
conversion to crime reporting, the
mad coincidence of reportorial pipe
dreams coming true and the love
rivalry of two men for a girl who
is in love with a dumb scholar who
does not know what love means.
Counterpointed against all this is
the terror Of a gang of criminals
which does not know how to deal
with such wacky gentry as those
who are trying to solve the crime.
"The Housekeeper's Daughter"
reaches its high point in q drunken
Fourth Of July battle with Roman
candles, roof-top combat which
makes the night red with intima-
tions Of slaughter and finally results
in the solution of the crime. It
does not make sense, but that Is
the point of course, and it is an
amusing point. It is especially good
fun when the zany Menjou descends
upon the gangsters with giant
f1recracker and a lighted candle in
his hands forcing them to drop
their guns and beat a cowardly re-
treat along with the frightened edi-
tors, reporters, housekeeper, and
those Egyptologists.
Miss Bennett plays her part of
the housekeeper's daughter with an
obvious lack of relish, disdaining the
warmth that is to be expected of a
girl whose charm is supposed to be
devastating. Along with her, Mr..
Menjou seems not to have his heart
IN his work of being a veteran crime
reporter, whose avocations are
double whiskies and single ladies.
The rest Of the cast, however, is
pretty brave spirited about it all,
especially Mr.. Hubbard as the
rebellious young Egyptologist who
thinks reporting would be more fun,
Gargan as 'roistering cameraman
who labors at inventions which will
keep him from working, and George
E. Stone as the humble schizo-
phrenic whose innocent speciality
is poisoned coffee.
Miss BENEFITS most justifiable
complaint to be made against "The
Housekeeper's Daughter" seems to
be In the quality of its dialogue.
Rian James and Gordan Douglas
adaptation Of the talk which read
so well in Donald Clark's novel
leaves much to be desired in fresh
ness and brightness at various
moments.
There is laughter in many Of its
situations to compensate to some
extent for that, however. J.C.

Brittle Love
In New Film
AtCapitol
Externally Yours
A Sophisticated
Romance

Mr.. Walter Wanger, the motion
picture producer, has been often
praised for his fortnight expert
ments in the cinema-for stepping
into new fields with such things as
"Algiers" and Blockade" for in
stance. His "Eternally Yours" the
new film at Loew's Capitol, is hardly
the sort to win him further acco-
ladies' at the mooment, however. In
story nor treatment is Externally
Yours" venture out of beaten
paths. 1t is, to paraphrase that line
which Is beaten to death in picture
reports every summer. good, light
two weeks before Christmas enter
tainment.
"Eternally Yours" is another of
those glittering. brittle and banter
ing accounts of an amour in what
Hollywood probably feels is the So
phisticated manner. The sophisti-
Gated people are girl named Anita
Loretta Young) and the Great Ar
turo David Niven), the noted presti-
digitator whom she marries. Not be-
ing able to coax the Great Arturo
into settling down in vine-covered
cottage instead of rambling the
world over following his chosen pro-
fession, meanwhile bathing his wife
in furs, Anita leaves her husband
and heads for Reno.
There possibly may be those who
think Anita pretty silly for this
move, because Arturo is charming
fellow and the furs are very nice.
But before she is through, Anita
shows even more evidence of a weak
mind, marrying an oaf portrayed
neatly by Broderick Crawford in
white tie and tails instead of gang
ster's weeds. The script writer's and
cinema custom stymie her in the last
reel, however, and Anita in the end
is forced to admit she still loves
Arturo. It was vain all along, but
we chung to the hope that Anita
would finally provide a touch of
novelty by deserting the oaf, too,
maybe taking a job as a stooge to
that old magician, Fred Keating,
who appears in one brief moment.
Hackneyed all of this is, to be
sure, but on the other hand "Eter-
nally Yours" is a light-hearted,
carefree affair, polished of glibly
by Miss Young, Mr.. Niven, Mr..
Crawford, c. Aubrey Smith, Hugh
Herbert and Billie Burke. It's one
Of those things known as harmless.
At any rate, it will do you no i'm
mediate bodily harm; no one knows,
probably, what the effect of these
things is on the mind and inner
soul.
A fellow named Jack Durant is
the principal reason for excitement
in the Capitol's stage show; in fact
the only reason, unless you are be-
coming excited very easily these
days. Mr.. Durant is a comedian,
and a funny one, with some ma
terial which is passably new and a
manner which definitely Is novel
and refreshing. The combination
of his bitter, resentful mood with
timing which is perfection makes
Mr.. Durant's doings great fun.

Saloon Man Brian Donlevy, for
whom Miss Dietrich dances and
nearly every one else likewise. With
nothing better to do, Miss Dietrich
not only sings and jigs for Mr.. DIS
cowboy night club, but also works
with him in his little tricks of win
ming ranches in crooked poker
games.
Into this mess walks Mr.. Stewart,
son Of famous Deputy Destry. He is
quiet, meek-looking, soft-spoken
fellow, this Destry Junior, and he
has his difficulties licking the gun
boys with nothing more than q
sense Of humor, a capacity to tell
stories, and a slowly emerging
quality of courage. Mr.. Stewart
plays 1t for all it is worth and it
is worth quite q bit to an actor
Of his particular qualifications, q
sort Of Lincoln of the talkies.
High spot Of "Destry Rides Again"
is that much advertised brawl be-
tween Miss Dietrich and Miss
Merkel. Usually anything so much
heralded In advance misses fire
when 1t arrives, but the combatants
In this case see to 1t that nothing of
the sort happens. Such a failing of
fists and legs, such a humping of
heads, and so much hair pulling
must have been terrific punish
ment, but both girls come out of 1t
with nothing worse than being un-
frocked and otherwise mussed.
On the way to the climactic fight
between the forces of good and evil
In the barroom, and in the course
of falling in love with the gentle
manly Destry, Miss Dietrich sings
again in the old throaty contralto.
Instead of Failing In Love Again" !"
however, she sings more virile pieces
this time, the sturdiest of them a
little thing about seeing what the
boys in the backroom will have.
The comedy of the fast paced
film, spiced with satire, is sparkling
stun, set of by some dramatic Sc
quences that are a distinct credit
to Director George Marshall.
Another man on the billing who
must have mention is Joseph
Pasternak, heretofore associated
with Deanna Durbin's welfare, and
a producer who must have been sur
prised to find himself in chage of
so different a singing star as
Marlene.
