 Speaking of good pictures veffnt bad ones reminds me of a film that decidedly falls into the latter cla<si. fjcation, CoIumbia's "The Fiehtine Guardsman." The bilIboafds and the pictures main title will pro- claim that it is based on Alexander Dumas novel. "Companions Of Jehu," as blatant a slapder against great novelist as I can well iEiis agine, for the picture bears about as much resemblance to Dumas brain child as an Eskimo igloo does to the Empire State Building. Per- sonally, I'm in favor of a law mak- ing it a crime for motion picture producer to butcher the best efforts of great writers, while using tlla novelists' fame as lure for aufnis~ sion fees.

The author of the review has been vary harsflly criticized by many movie spokes- men. How dare anyone write such things of Miss Durbin?" they cry. I can't quite share their indignation, though I will concede that the re- viewer may have been bit harsh. It seems to me that an equally pert- inent question would be: How dare Miss Durbin--a star who exists only through the admiration and loyalty of theater- goers-lay herself open to such remarks?"
 Some weeks ago, Dolores del Rio. who for the past three years has been starring in Mexican-made pie lures. astonished Hollywood by flat ly rejecting comeback offers from three major studios. An item in Q Mexico City paper clears up the mystery. It reports that Miss Del Rio, in her current picture, La Sel- va de Fuego,' plays an irresistible siren who Is passionately loved by 40 men, What actress would give up roles like that for the paltry re- wards offered by Hollywood?
