the actions of the other. Power Is
too slick for that.
While primarily the tale of q
single-handed battle with despotism,
THE Mark Of Zorro" provides ample
time for some romantic dalying.
Powers associate in the enterprise
Is pretty Linda Darnell, q lovely
white dove Of girl whose unhappy
and confined home life makes 1t
inevitable that she shall love him
at first sight.
John Taintor Foote, who set down
the doings of Zorro in script form,
was a smart fellow in not trying
to get the element of surprise into
his writing. Realizing there is not
much one can do in the way of
novelty, he just sets up his situa-
tions in the order which always
has been proper and lets 1t 60 at
that. Those designed to set the
character of the heroes, villains,
etc, are somewhat on the tedious
side, but once they are out of the
way the thing takes on a sort of
zip.
The best sequences are those in
which Power as Zorro races around
in his black hood and robes cutting
rs in places designed to frighten
the mean old alcalde (governor).
His neatest bit of initial carving is
IN the chest Of an evil old sergeant,
unless one counts better that in
which he drops the z form to make
nice. straight hole through the
middle Of Villain Basil Rathbone.
That comes at the end of q sword
duel that looks realistic, even
sounds 1t when Rathbone turns loose
that death rattle, for which you
certainly must listen.
Reuben Mamoulian. who directed
the picture, did good enough jobs
on both casting and production.
For associate villain to Rathbone
he hired j. Edward Bromberg, who
plays the part Of the nasty old
alcalde (why don't we have pretty
titles like that for evil public ON
cialsO as if he had been playing
1t all his life, which he has. For
the alcalde's f1irtatious wife there
is Gale Sondergaard, who does not
have to be as evil as usual and
seems to enjoy it. The others are
good enough, the most amusing of
them Eugene Palette as a waddling
padre, who goes around blipping
soldiers on the heed, asking Heav-
ems forgiveness with each doughty
blip.
The Capitol's stage show is high
lighted by the presence of Danny
Kaye, the new comedy discovery of
the autumn. who is headed straight
for the revue which will star Ger
trude Lawrence some day soon.
Kaye has quiet, understatement
style Of delivery that contrasts
nicely with the saucy material he
handles.
Otherwise the bill Is composed Of
the cycle act of the Shyrettos, re-
member them; the singing Of the
