MARXES MISS MARK IN CURRENT FARCE, REVIEWER DECLARES .

Trio Lacks

Usual Deft Punch, View

Picture Offers Number of Hilarious Moments, However.

By JAMES THRASHER The true Marxian, | fear, will find disappointment lurking at Loew's this week where “A Day at the Races” is showing. | Not that hilarious moments are lacking, but the whole thing lacks that mad merriment the Brothers Marx are wont to bring us. And for those of us who have cherished the quips and cranks of Groucho, Chico and Harpo since their last picture, and have roared at the advance “stills” of this film, hilarious

moments are not enough.

This is not a dispassionate review, for I happen to be one of the most rabid Marxophiles. But to the in- | itiate, a Marx Brothers picture is somewhat like a wrestling match. The customer goes to see action

and comedy, not musical spectacles and romance. When he doesn't get them, he howls.

Harpo Up to Standard

The picture starts off slowly and | ends in an obvious manner. Be- | tween start and finish there are rich moments and arid stretches. Right up to standard is Harpo's panto- | mime delineation of the sorry | plight awaiting Dr. Hugo Z. Hack- | enbush (Groucho, of course.) Likewise a paper-hanging scene and the three brothers’ medical examination of Mrs. Upjohn (Margaret Dumont) approach their own lofty standard! without reaching it. Harpo plays the harp and Chico, the piano, still it doesn’t click.

Perhaps the stars have fussed too much over “A Day at the Races.” They've cut the film, reshot scenes, tried the jokes out “in the flesh” as well as in pictures. In fact, they seem to have labored to make it | fool-proof, but in the process the | typically Marxian spontaneity has | dropped by the wayside.

Chico’s Puns Missing

Harpo is wonderful, even though he doesn’t chase a blond in the whole picture. Grouch and Chico are not so good. Groucho's “gags” are few and rather unfunny, and he delivers them without much confidence. Chico labors without those atrocious puns which have spiced his former roles. So Harpo’s being wonderful is scarcely enough.

There is much footage devoted to the vapid romancing of Alan Jones and Maureen O'Sullivan, and to Mr. Jones’ songs. There is a final horse race in which the horse wins when he sees the picture and hears the voice of a man whom he hates with an elephantine persistence. There is also a lengthy scene in which | Harpo, with a penny whistle, plays Pied Piper to a corps of dusky actors who spring up like mushrooms at the race track. These are definitely black marks against the Marxes

Groucho Is Horse Doctor

I shan't try to tell you the story, for it's one of those things designed as handy props for potential | comedy situations, and nothing | more. It's enough to say that | Groucho is a horse doctor, Harpo a | jockey and Chico handy-man |‘ around a sanitarium. Miss O’Sullivan owns the sanitarium; Mr. Jones owns the horse; Miss Dumont owns a lot of money and finally | adds Groucho to her securities. Maybe I should apologize for tak- | ing on at such length, but I can't accept a Marx Brothers picture | casually. When I think of “Duck | Soup” or “A Night at the Opera,” I am moved to tears. There is a real silver lining in| Loew's program, however. That is | a Silly Symphony by Walt Disney, one Olympian dweller who never fails us. It's all about a sylvan night club. with insect audience and entertainers And it's swell. The second feature is titled “The Devil Is Driving.” an apt and acceptably dramatized lesson on the evils of motoring under alcoholic stimulation. Richard Dix is the

star.

Indianapolis players can take pride that their record was not marred by open bickerings and dissension among the cast—as was the case in many other cities—nor by any discriminations, political, religious or otherwise, on the management's part. As for the valedictory offering, it is the best piece of material the Federals ever worked with. It may be taken for granted that the play is familiar to many in its motion picture version, but it is a decidedly better play than picture. It resembles Ibsen in many ways, in its topical sociological allusion, in its sincere and fearless dealing with human problems, and its preeminent “actability.”

Smaller parts by Judson Langill and Robert Turner are extremely well done. Ruth King and Bruce Barnard, as Margaret and Hilary Fairfield, are not consistent, but at times most convincing. The set, except for one jarring “tapestry,” is excellent. The whole performance moves with speed and maintains interest in a worthwhile and recommended play. (By J. Q. T)

Death on Movie Ship Brings Suit

Skits Prove Amusing In ‘New Faces’

But Lines and Plot Fail To Hold Up Cast,

Reviewer Says.

Sereen newcomers, like screen oldsterg, have to work mighty hard to put sparkle into unfunny lines and threadbare plot. That's why “New Faces of 1037,” now at the Circle, isn't as merry as its A-1 cast suggests, though that cast certainly does its part to lift the R<K-0 musical out of the mediocre level where Director Leigh Jason and a trio of

scenarists put it. The results are partially setisfying, for many individual skits ere clever and amusing. But when plot and direction take over, “New Faces” becomes just another meandering musical trying to build up to a “colossal” climax that never arrives. For sprightly and sometimes funny performances, full credit goes to a bevy of young players you won't see in just any week's movie going, though most of them you know as network entertainers. Milton Berle, Parkyakarkus, Harriet Hilliard and Thelma Leeds are among the headliners. And yes, Joe Penner is back, without his famous duck, but with all the Pennerisms that have made him famous.

Auditions Better Than Climax

Dolores Del Rio Rescues Child, 2

He profits py selling the show to several backers, pocketing most of the money after his re vues close, Trouble begins when a singer puts up $15,000 to have her boy friend's show prdouced. The producer hires all the bad talent, fires the good, and is about ready to cash in when trapped by his actress sweetheart. He dashes off to South America, leaving the show on Milton Berle’s hands.

Penner Puts It Over

Berle, assisted by Parkyakarkus and hindered by Joe Penner, finally gets the revue opened. Well, Penner rushes on stage to escape Berle and Parky, who want his scalp for sundry reasons, and once on stage he delights the audience. The show is a hit, and closes with the “peckin’ revue, a new high, I insist, in cinematic silliness. Out of the chaotic plot come delightful performances by Berle, as the assistant producer; by Penner, as the ham actor; by Parky, deadpan stooge to Berle; by Jerome Cowan, who plays the producer until he absconds to South America; by Miss Hilliard as a dancer and sing-

cluding “Penthouse on Third Avenue,” “Love Is Never Out of Season” and “If I Didn't Have You.” Another very listenable tune, “It Goes to Your Feet,” backgrounds a rehearsal scene which includes most of the principals. Portions of the film are mounted attractively, and costuming is pleasing in production numbers. And there is dancing up to the accepted standard of film musicals. Parkyakarkus always looks funny, even when his lines let him down, and Berle, in a scene with a stock broker—a scene which has absolutely nothing to do with the story— is ridiculously funny. Unfortunately, these bright spots are too few for a film which boasts “New Faces'” talented cast. The Circle’s second picture is “Behind the Headlines,” featuring Lee Tracy and Diana Gibson in a story of newspapering, crime and romance. (By R. N.) ce | Saturday or Covered

Gay Pandemonium Rules

In Headliner on Lyric Stage.

A rather pleasant pandemonium reigns at the Lyric this week where Cab Calloway, Harlem's howling hottentot, is truckin’ up and down the boards to the music of his excellent band. Mr. Calloway has only one counterpart in the American theater. That is the gentleman who played the Haitian witch: doctor in the all-Negro production of “Macbeth,” seen at the Federal Theater last winter. Cab’s perform-

ance is voodoo of a different

vintage, but their spells and incantations are cssentially the same.

Consequently, enjoyment of a Calloway show depends upon your own temperament. The patron whose taste is for the emotional

and basically primitive will find the’

presentation right down his alley. It certainly is uninhibited entertainment, although some, like myself, may find an hour's worth a bit wearing. Like most touring Negro enter-

tainers, Cab Calloway has a style

CALLS OFF TRIP

The blond German movie star had planned to take Maria to a school in Switzerland.

Uroe Dances In Olympics

Hollywood Stars Advocate Tapping in Tokyo.

By United Press HOLLYWOOD, July 3.—Eleanor Powell and other movie dance figures petitioned the American Olympic Committee today to put a dancing event in the Olympic

games at Tokyo in 1940. They signed a petition sent Avery Brundage, committee head, asking inclusion of “tap dancing, wooden shoe and acrobatic dancing” in the games “in the interest of millions of amateur dancers throughout the world.” Jim Jeffries, former heavyweight boxing champion, and college coaches including Howard Jones at Southern California, indorsed the idea. George Murphy, screen dancer and son of Mike Murphy, Olympic coach, started the plan and was joined in the film colony by Miss Powell, Tilly Losch, Buddy Ebsen and Judy Garland. They urge a “division of rhythmics” in the games.
