ißobert Montgomery. Robert Montgomery is pretty pleased with the results of his bold ewitoh from comedy to grizzly murder in “ Night Must Fall.” Bouquets have been showered on him by local officials, Including psychologists, psychiatrists, and poltce, who declare that his portrait of a maniac is a “re markable revelation of criminal practice.” Robert Montgomery Less kind critics rumour that the public has difficulty in taking him seriously. That’s as may be. Although Bob has made a comedy since, for safety, he’s back again In 44 Spanish Omelette,” which has turned out so heavy they’ve got to change the title. i Just now he’s begging fourteen weeks’ leave to appear on Broadway tn 44 Merely Murder.” A comedy, despite the title, and he’ll probably get It. r About Picture People. FROM FILM WEEKLY. f Darryl Zanuok ought to start a studio nursery. What with Shirley Temple, the Quins (who must be growing up , and Jane Withers, figuring high on his contract sheet, he’ll be a qualified nurse, soon. His latest young star is Douglas Scott. Douglas is the very nice manly little boy who played young Horatio Nelson in 44 Lloyds of London ” and made Freddie Bartholomew look pretty pale. Mr Zanuck will star him in Robert Loui6 Stevenson’s 44 Kidnapped.” It sounds to me like a good idea. I’m glad, too, to find that Mr Zanuck is letting at least two of his baby stars show signs of growing up, Simone Simon, who, in spite of her twenty odd years, has so far appeared as a female Peter Pan, has a modern, sophisticated comedy part in 44 Danger— Love at Work.’’ She has also got comedian Jack Haley as 00-star, and the original pixilated sisters in support. Shirley Temple will, for the first time, be relieved of a grown-up romance Interest in 44 Heidi.” It’s a Swiss story and Shirley gets mature but unromantlo support from Jean Hersholt, Violet Kemble Cooper and Mady Christians. After that Jean Hersholt, too good an aotor to be condemned to serve his youngers, goes North to romp with the Quins. 5 Mae West won’t have the field so clear to herself in her next picture, which most people, I fanoy, will find a good notion. Mae and Mr Producer Emmanuel Cohen are begging Al Jolson to accept an Important part. Other probables are Jimmy Durante and May Robson, If she can be borrowed from M-G-M. Title, pending higher inspiration, is 44 Frivolous Sal.” Don’t be surprised if It's a musical about the Gay Nineties. Under the Red Robe ,f — With Annabella. There is no doubt about Annabella. The extraordinary success she aohieved In 44 Wings of the Morning ” 1s repeated a hundredfold in 44 Under the Red Robe.” As the radiant and charming Lady Marguerite, rapturously lu love and unaware that her ardour oan destroy a throne, she gives a perfect performance. The story of 44 Under the Red Robe” Is a full-blooded adventure tale of the adventurous days of Cardinal Richelieu, when duelling was so popular, and so fatal, that the Red Cardinal was forced to Issue an edict forbidding it entirely, in order to retain the male population of his beloved Fiance. But Richelieu, masterfully played by Raymond Massey, Is not above altering his decrees to suit his own ends and we find him entrusting the most feared of all the duellists. Gil de Borauld, 44 The Black Death,” with a mission upon which depended the ultimate fate of France. As the Black Death, Conrad Yeidt, whose flashing sword leaps even in the shadows of the Cardinal’s Palace, Is splendid. 44 Under the Rod Robe ” is a tale which packs adventure enough for a hundred pictures. The romantic angle with Conrad Yeidt and Annabella as the lovers Is i.i-.ldrusivoiY exMulslto and beautiful and excitingly thrilling. PLASHES.
