CAVALRY CHARGE
THRILLING EFFECTS IN TALKIE
With outdoor sound recording equipment perfected and the Western films back in public favour, the screen’s saddle-and-spur brigade is again in demand. Nor is their work entirely confined to “Western” pictures, comments a reviewer. In Paramount’s all-talking film, “Only the Brave,” in which Gary Cooper is starred, several hundred Western riders were used as cavalrymen in the battle scenes. They merely exchanged stock for cavalry saddles and substituted blue uniforms and sabres for chaps and pistols. “Only the Brave” is one of the newly-arrived pictures in New Zealand and will be released shortly. Mary Brian is the leading woman and the principal supporting roles are played by Phillips Holmes, Morgan Farley, William Ie Maire and Elda Voelka. Frank Tuttle directed the picture.
