canard it is. too. virtually 80 per

even veering toward the spicy as it
combines the qualities of a social
document and a Partisan (pre-war)
bedroom farce.
He Stayed for Breakfast" is not
serious about its little lessons in So
cial significance, to be sure. 1t just
joshes the daylights out of that great
joke itself, Communism. by proving
beyond the shadow of a doubt that
good food. champagne and a pretty
girl like Loretta Young could turn
any pair Of healthy eyes away from
Moscow. This is accomplished by
permitting Mr.. Douglas, rabid
Stalinist, to take refuge from the
gendarmerie in the apartment of
Miss Young, who believes in CAPT.
talism and recognizes a certain at
traction between the sexes. He
stays for breakfast funder such
circumstances that not even the

and Communism loses him.
All this frivolity is performed
glibly by Miss Young and Mr.. Doug

Of brandy win her to the cause and

New Picture
Inspired by
Nazis Steal a Ship
In Adventure Tale
At the Columbia

1t is almost amazing to see to
what lengths a movie script writer's
Imagination will be chased by the
headlines in the daily papers. There
is this fellow out at Paramount, for
instance. who read the stories about
the sinking of the Athena and the
sundry episodes involving the City
of Flint and the Altmark and set to
brooding. He put them all together.
Paramount filmed the result and
it is at Loew's Columbia right now.
The name of it is Mystery Sea
Raider"
There's this show girl, see. on her
way home from Europe and she
meets this fellow who claims he is
in the import-export business,
though no one in the theater but
the girl falls for his story. Well,
war is declared and this gent rushes
off to send a radiogram giving. in
poorly concealed code, the position,
course and speed of the ship. So
the dimwit of radio operator, never
recognizing the figures, sends it and
the ship is torpedoed by submarine
and everybody swims around for
awhile before being saved. Then
the girl turns up in New York-with
her luggage!
There she has a fight with the
boy friend, who is no boy but master
of a tramp freighter which is not
tramping because it has no freight,
and she fixes it with her export
import chum to hire master and
frelghter and send them far away.
Before long every one in the cast
is at sea literally. too, we mean
and the girl is astounded, the cap
tain is in irons and Export Import
is Nazi raiding commerce. Fl
nally the captain escapes, bashes in
the heads of several members of
the German Navy, runs his ship
into a submarine. dives into the
ocean with his girl friend and they
are rescued by a British cruiser
which is blasting the daylights out
OF the freighter and its Nazi pirates
You will find Carole Lands, Henry
Wilcoxen and Gohr Van Week in
this. We never heard of Gohr Van

The current trip shows that for
all the 100000 miles he has travelled
in the last three years, Mickey has
not had some experiences that mil
lions of other youngsters have had.
He saw his first big league baseball
game during his Cleveland engage
ment and proved a bad mascot for
Bob Teller, who was trying to win
for Mickey as we'll as Oscar Witt
or is it Witt Cleveland tried to win
for?
With reference to those 100000
miles, Mickey has a notion that
when the speedometer, logbook or
whatever it is reaches 100000 he
will write a book about it. A sort
of Halliburton thing.

got" he says.
He probably will find time to write

10 DenOld WnaL RllD IdlenI can QO'
to brighten the corner into which
a script writer has backed us.
Miss Russell is cast as one of
those ever-so- efficient secretaries in
love with the boss, who in turn con-
siders her, for all but the final 10
feet of the film, just some one who
pours oil on the troubled waters Of
his business life. The boss, in this
case, is Brian Aherne; the comic
friend is Robert Benchley, the other
woman is Virginia Bruce, and John
Carroll is the secretary's decoy. You
know the story we mean. This time
it is complicated by business affairs
which necessitate the turning over
of Mr.. Ahernes holdings to his wife,
wherefor he must acquire wife.
Mr. Benchley has several comic
moments as Mr.. Aherne's sleepy
lawyer, Mr.. Carroll has his several
as a genial South American who
speaks English backwards and lives
for love. Mr.. Aherne is sleek, hand
some and frenzied as he tries to
escape the web his secretary weaves.
And Miss Bruce just gets lovelier
and lovelier until we are now con-
WINGED she is created by some mass
hypnosis cooked up in Hollywood
and not real at all.
William A. Setter, who directed
Hired Wife" has managed well,
too. contriving to keep things NOV
ing at fairly lively pace and some
how creating an hallucination of
freshness on some occasions. All this
he manages in spite Of comedy dia-
logue which has, for the most part,
less the sparkle Of pink cham
payne than that, say, Of pink lem
onade.
All these people have performed
their chores in commercially
facile manner, but Hired Wife" is
still Miss Russells personal dish Of
tea. 1t is Miss Russell who knows
how to arch an eyebrow to the
proper height and how to time the
arching of it to the split second;
who knows how to drop a brittle
SdCil lCdl lille III SpcCidI OH -IldIlU
manner which makes it ever so
much more hilarious than if. for
instance. Dorothy Lamour said it.
Miss Russell can't prevent dull
stretches in the comedy, but the
dullness is the sort which makes
you wish something would happen
on the screen, not the kind that
makes you wish you were some
where else.

There is a new March of Time
at Keith's, too. and, surprisingly
enough, a March of Time which

much. 'On Foreign Newsfronts,"

Fight for Freedom
Background for
Dramatic Film

The birth of the precious liberty
we are now girding ourselves to de-
fend II and when the occasion arises
can make for dramatic Aim fare.
In the case of The Towards of
Virginia." Frank Lloyd directed mo-
ton picture adaptation Of Eliza
beth Pages Tree of Liberty" it
makes film fare dramatic enough to
join that select group Of pictures
held for a second week at the Earle
Mr.. Lloyd, with Martha Scott and
Cary Grant as his principal play
ers, has made an exciting photo
play of this story Of the days when
an empire was being carved from a
wilderness, when it was fighting
for its freedom. Occasionally Mr..
Lloyd hasn't been able to keep his
narrative from becoming ponder
GUS, perhaps, but it is not often that
this happens; for the most part the
story of Matt Howard, his bride and
his fight for liberty, is both a
warmly human and vigorous one.
Mr.. Lloyd accomplishes his pur-
pose by remaining close to the
personal problems Of Matt and the
naughty Jane Peyton he Weds. He
can't make the Stamp Act riots or
the Boston Tea Party overly
suspenseful at this late date, but he
can, and does spin a dramatic yarn
out of the conflict between Matt's
primitive nature and James aristo-
cratic breeding. Mr. Lloyd and Cary
Grant also contrive splendidly
powerful moment out of that one
when Matt, aging and weary. learns
he has judged his sons wrongly, that
the one he thought completely a
Peyton is the one who has inherited
the Howard fury for freedom.
