AMUSEMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S PICTURES. ■y JOAN,CRAWFORD IN > “POSSESSED.” Joan Crawford has bowed to the requests of hundreds of letters received at the MetrosGoldwyrt-Mayer studio, with the result that she sings a new song in her latest picture, “Posses setl,” which will be shown to-night at the Princess Theatre. Miss Crawford’s voice caught on with the public when she sang “Gotta Feei- ,} irig For You” in'“The Hollywood Re- / vue of 1939.” Subsequently she sang several | songs in “Dance, Fools, Dance.” and “Laughing Sinners” ' spectively? However, two of the star’s most reJ cent pictures, “This Modern * Age” T and “Within the Law,” were, songless, and she has Feeri bombarded with protests ,■ by mail. /Consequently a highlight of “Possessed” is “How Long Will . It Last?” by Max Lief and Joe Meyers, which Miss Crawford sings ’in a Park Avenue sequence of- the picture. V- " “Possessed” is a striking story of modern New York and its modern lack of conventions. The picture Was adapted from : the Edgar Selwyn stage hit, ■ ifThe' Mirage.” Clark Gable, latest screen \ sensation, plays opposite Miss 2J Crawford; ahd : the cast alßo«Sricludes \ Wallace ’Fdfd and Sheets Gallagher. A good -selection of supports will also be shown. -
