ALICE IN WONDERLAND STILL LIVES

Every One Should See Movie, Says Times Critic

■ , N w : js^Ldk **' > . mfk - . ‘ *... . ■

Upper Left—Edward Everett Horton is the Mad Hatter in Paramount's production of “Alice in Wonderland.” He invites Alice to have tea at a mad tea party with the March Hare and the Dormouse. Upper Right—Charlotte Henry as Alice is pictured here just as she has gone through the looking glass.

BY WALTER D. HICKMAN Times Dramatic Editor EVA LE GALLIENNE made herself immortal to the stage when she produced ‘‘Alice in Wonderland.” Paramount has made itself immortal by giving the world a movie version of "Alice in Wonderland.” Rome person with money and brains can put themselves into the “Hall of Fame” by placing a copy of the movie version in a museum where it may be kept as a priceless possession for future generations. Miss Le Gallienne adapted the story for the stage with the assistance of Florida Friebus. And in addition to that she produced and directed the stage version and played the role of the White Chess Queen. For the screen. Norman McLeod directed and Louis D. Lighton produced it. The screen play was written by Joseph L. Mankiewic* and William Cameron Mansies. Both productions are masterpieces and deserve to be considered high spots in the development of the stage and screen.

John Reed Club to Hear Lecture by Topshevsky

Art as Reflection of Social Currents to Be Open Forum Topic. Morris Topshevsky of Chicago will address the open forum conducted by the John Reed Club tomorrow, on the third floor of the Columbia Securities building, 143 East Ohio street. He will speak -of art as a reflection of social currents and as an expression of the artist's view of the world around him. The talk will be illustrated in part by a collection of paintings by the artists' group of the Chicago John Reed Club, which is being exhibited in the hall. Mr. Topshevsky has spent a great deal of time within the last ten years in Mexico where he has studied the new approaches in teaching the arts. He was there in 1924 when the Mexican government inaugurated the now well-known “Free Open Air Schools of Painting." He has been associated intimately with Diegc Rivera, Chariot, Montenegro, and other artists and educators of Mexico. Every summer since 1928 has found him in that country, where he has painted and worked with the “Seminar on Cultural Relations with

not only as entertainment but as true art. a a tt IT is interesting to compare the mechanics of the stage with the movie production. To get the right effect of transition from one episode to another as Alice advances from one square to another in Wonderland, Miss Le Gallienne used a long track on which the scenery was in motion most of the time. The movie director relied upon trick photography to accomplish by suggestion and comparison. As to the costumes and masks, both productions are similar, although there is more facial expression of the spoken word on part of the characters in the movie. Both productions created the costumes and masks from the original drawings in the first edition of the book. Miss Le Gallienne got Alice through the looking glass with more ease and better effect than the movie. I liked the scenes with the White Chess Queen in the Le Gallienne production much better than the movie, but the movie excelled in the Mad Hatter’s tea party, the trial scene, and when

There is no telling how many romances Dan Cupid started on St. Valentine's day, but he is responsible for sending fourteen couples to the office of County Clerk Glenn B. Ralston to obtain marriage licenses. "It must have beep more than a coincidence that fourteen couples should have applied for licenses of the 14th of February,” Mr. Ralston observed. The number of licenses issued yesterday was almost double the dailyaverage for the month, Fred Lay, marriage license clerk, said. Youthful Criminals Captured Two 15-year-old boys, who confessed looting a filling station, a drug store and a lumber company of $375, were arrested by police last night. From one of the boys, police took a home-made blackjack. The boys had been arrested previously for vehicle taking police say.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Lower Left—Louise Fazenda has the role of the White Queen. Her balloon tire dress is quite a novelty. Lower Right—Alison Skipworth as the Duchess has just spanked the baby after he had sung “Wow, Wow, Wow.”

the crying baby turns into a pig. Both productions have captured the marvelous fun of the Walrus and the Carpenter. Both use puppets, but in different ways. a tt u OF course from the standpoint of well-known names, the movie cast has it all over the stage production, but both are tremend* ously effective. Josephine Hutchinson made her Alice on the stage a juvenile in appearance, but a little more adult in mind that the Alice of Charlotte Henry. Miss Henry is always the very little girl, generally awed and surprised by the things she sees and hears in Wonderland. Miss Henry brings a lot of natural charm to the spoken word. Here we have youth being just a youth. That was the way I believe the author intended the role to be played. Both Miss Henry and Miss Hutchinson (who is much older in real life than Miss Henry) have done splendid jobs. The outstanding performances in the stage version were that by Miss Hutchinson and by Miss Le Gallienne. The movie version displays the magnificent performance of W. C. Fields as Humpty Dumpty and the glorious work of Cary Grant as the Mock Turtle and of Edward Everett Horton as the Mad Hatter. tt tt THE scene with the White Knight have no similarity in the two productions. The stage used a comedy horse with the front and hind legs played by two comedians. The movie uses areal horse and relies upon comedy relief on the part of Alice and the White Knight as he falls from his horse. The movie version of “Alice” is a compliment to the industry because it is the best example of make-believe I have ever seen on the screen. , If your children are old enough to be taken to a circus they will enjoy the movie. The fact is that no one can be too old to enjoy this screen production.

Kill that COLD! Don't Merely Coddle It with Half- Way Measures / A cold is nothing to trifle with! It may end seriously. A cold, being an internal infection, calls for an internal treatment.
