Richard Dix In Exciting Story
or Adventure at the Riviera

in the summer, movie fans gen.
orally are not in the mood for
heavy drama.
This film finds Dix as an enter
prising newspaper reporter cast by
circumstances into a nest of ex-
citing incidents, which are favored
with the omni-present romantic
element. There is Dix on one side
and bad hombres the other, and
when they start stepping on one
another's feet the plot unfolds
with dramatic movement.
Prominent in the supporting cast
are Lucille Ball. as dancing In
structor, and John Kendall. Dix's
reportorial assistant whose humor
is easy to laugh at.
The screen is shared by THE
Last Warning" which finds Pres
ton Foster in the lead. This is a
mystery picture, and Foster Is
right at home in such productions.

see Richard Dix on the screen,
for no matter what kind of
picture he is in, a super
colossal such as MAN of Con-
quest" or a less pretentious
one such as Twelve Crowded
Hours" one knows that he
will give fine performance.
On the screen Dix is gentle
man at all times, always obliging.
never snobbish. That is the way
he is cast in all his pictures, and
he does not have to alter his be-
haviour much, either, for he Is
that way off the screen, too.
At the Riviera he has the lead
ing role in Twelve Crowded
Hours" which opened yesterday, a
picture that affords good summer
entertainment for those who want
something light for a change. And
