“THE WAR AGAINST MRS HADLEY”
Comedy and drama mingle in the human story, “The War Against Mrs Hadley,” which will be shown tonight. Fay Bainter plays her role with a deep conviction. Richard Ney, as the son, portrays the character splendidly. Romance is furnished by Jean Rogers and Van Johnson who are an engaging pair. Edward Arnold is compelling as the wealthy socialite’s suitor, and Spring Byington plays a social leader, who has turned war worker, convincingly. Halliwell Hobbes as an air warden provides much of the comedy. It is one of the outstanding pictures of the year. “The War Against Mrs Hadley” was directed by Harold S. Bucquet from the original screen play by George Oppenheimer.
