Harvest
Superb
By CHARLES GENTRY

THEY SAY that love VIII ma
a way 20 do everything except
get YOU new tires.
Ii certainly accomplishes a
miracle in Random Harvest, the
film version of James Hilton S
beautiful and moving romance
which opened at the United
Artists yesterday.
With Greer Carson and Ronald
Colman in the leads, this tender,
heart-waruling tale turns out TO
be a completely absorbing motion
picture.
1t is the story, as you may
know If YOU have read the uni
versally popular book, of the she'll
shocked captain of the last war
who finds himself In an English
county asylum, the victim of
amneSia.
The confusion attending the
armistice gives him chance 10
escape and he goes into the near
est village. where he meets a
music hall entertainer. Greer
Carson. Unusually sympathetic,
she senses his problem befrfehds
him and later cares for him during
. siege Of influenza.
ROAD TO RECOVERY
% II is this care which helps him
to recover, gain back his speech
and a confidence in himself which
he never had in the institution.
They retire TO an isolated spot
in Devon and the first thing they
know they are in love. he is con-
tributing articles TO a Liverpool
daily and life has resumed more
even course.
They are married and every
thing seems to be going smoothly
enough until he takes business
trip to Liverpool, during which
stay he is struck down by a taxi.
The injury is not severe, but it
is enough TO restore his memory
OF what transpired previous to the
battle in France, and TO leave
blank those intervening chapters:
hospital, Carson and all.
RESUMES HIS POSITION
He again becomes Sir Charles
Rainier, baronet of Random Hall,
master mind of industry and no
longer the writing bloke Of the
west country.
He takes over the important job
OF running his fathers business,
makes great success of ii and
plans to marry a young and
adoring niece - by marriage =
Susan Peters.
His private secretary turns out
to be Miss Carson, who knows
what has happened to her hus-
band but dares not reveal herself
for fear he, In his befuddled mind.
will resent her.
AS the friendly doctor. Philip
Dorm, tells her. final recognition
must come from within. prompted
by the subconscious. And so she
waits. She even marries him
again, but since so much OF the
story depends upon the suspense
of second recognition and the
eventual regaining of lost happi-
ness, we shan't spoil it for you.
A TOUCHING TALE
It is a perfectly beautiful story
and If II is dragged out a bit in
certain sequences, we know you
will overlook these things in the
