Out of an. industry” t that regards Indiana as the symbol of yokeldom! and the mention of Kokomo of a: signal for gales of laughter, there now comes a comedy called “Remember the Night” to remedy some previous defects. For “Remember the Night” is about a couple of Hoosier kids who . made good—in their own particular ways—in the big city of New York. It also takes the customer to a farmhouse near Wabash, where Christmas™ is celebrated in what probably ‘is a typical Hoosier manner. : The Hoosier kids in question are Jack Sargent, who is doing well in the district attorney's office, and Miss Lee Leander (real name, Malone), who becomes one of Gotham’s more accomplished jewel thieves. The two meet strictly in the line of duty. Mr. Sargent sees that the jury, full of Yuletide spirit, is about to acquit Miss Leander, so he gets a continuance. Then he bails her out, takes her to dinner and, under the influence of sweet music, soft glances and a brandy and benedictine, agrees to take her home to Indiana. Once there, Lee’s sanctimonious mother will have none of her. So he takes her to the environs of Wabash, where Mrs. Sargent and Aunt Emma greet her with open armis. From there on in it’s love and remorse. Back in New York, Jack tries to throw the case. Lee counters by pleading guilty. At the last she..is off for prison, but by this time we know that Jack will wait. Hoosier aspects apart for the moment, here is one of the gayest and best acted comedies of recent months. It is refreshingly original and-directed by Mitchell Leisen with’ a sparkle that reminds one of Capra at his best. It isn’t often that farce and sentimentality are mingled so artfully and effectively as here. Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwyck are absolutely first-rate as the principals, and the supporting players, headed by Beulah Bondi, Elizabeth Patterson and Sterling Holloway, are excellent, down to the smallest walk-on part. Audience reaction yesterday was almost as much fun as the picture. The customers whooped with delight when Mr. McMurray first announced he was from near Wabash. And when he had the band play “Back Home Again in Indiana,” the general swallowing of lumps in throats sounded like a frogpord in spring. However, when the picture laid on the yokelry a bit thick at the Indiana New Year’s Eve darn dance, the Indiana’s delegation of metropolitan Hoosierdom greeted the rustic merriment in subzero silence. It would be shunning duty not to mention Gertrude, the much pub- " licized cow. Gertrude, you know, is about to be shipped to Indiana from Hollywood as a good-will gesture of ~ some sort. But in the picture she isn’t even a Hoosier. She plays the part of a Pennsylvania Holstein! We was robbed.. The other picture on the bill is “Emergency Squad” with William Henry and Louise Campbell, two of Hollywood's younger set.—J. T.

Loew's

~ In the week before the big Wind, Loew’s is more than marking time with the film transcription of John Steinbeck’s arresting tragedy, “Of Mice and Men.” Because of the imminence of “Gone With the Wind,” there is the danger that this film might be overlooked, which would be a mistake. For “Of Mice and Men,” even at this early date, seems a cinch to " wind up among the best pictures of 1940. . Here® is entertainment for the discriminating patron, the devotee of fine acting and dramatic integrity. For the screen version has retained all of the qualities which made “Of Mice and Men” an arresting book and a powerful play. Mr. Steinbeck conceived a moving and bitter plot of inexorable tragedy, and peopled it with characters as true as life itself. Eugene Solow, who made the screen play, and Lewis Milestone, who directed, have retained these virtues intact. There has been no blurring of outline, no sweetening of acid for the sake of cinema conventions. Except for the profanity and a few passages of pretty |strong candor, nothing has been changed. And, since no worthy pla ever depended entirely. on swear words for its erect, nothing ogie tial has been or you don’t recall the story, it is of George and Lennie, two “bindle stiffs,” or itinerant | California laborers; George, alert and tnederhearted; Lennie, whose feeble and

harmless mind is housed in a body of prodigious strength. Their drab, underpaid and overworked lives are brightened by the goal of a “little place of their own.” But besides the feat of saving a small sum out of their pittance, there is George’s additional problem of keeping Lennie out of trouble. Lennie’s one’ failing is a love for soft things. All he wants from life is a mouse or rabbit or puppy or piece of velvet to stroke. But his brute strength kills the animals, and his fumbling mind loses the velvet. Trouble pursues the pair to the ranch where the action takes place. There they meet Mae, the pathetic little slattern wife of the owner’s son, and Curley, her jealous, trouble-making husband. And old Candy, the one-armed bunk swabber who gives them his life’s savings on promise of a haven with them in their “little place.” But one day Mae, in ignorant coquetry, lets Lennie stroke her hair. He pulls it, she screams, and before he knows it, Lennie has crushed out her life. He flees to the hideout where George directed him in case of trouble. And there George reaches him ahead of Curley and the lynch mob. Directing Lennie’s gaze across the hills, telling him again of the “little place,” its fields and buildings, the alfalfa and the rabbits and the pigeons, George mercifully puts a” bullet in the back of his head. Perfect is a strong word, but it fits the casting and performance. Burgess Meredith reaffirms his promise and talent as George. From “Winterset” to the present film, his screen career has been a wanton squandering of one of the theater's fine young talent. It is cause for rejoicing to find him with a part worthy of his mettle. Betty Field, the cute youngster of “What a Life,” blossoms forth as an excellent actress. Like few of her Hollywood sisters, she submerges all mannerisms and “personality” ‘and plays the role of Mae as it should be done. to her unqualified credit. Lennie is played by Lon Charey Jr. in a manner befitting that. distinguished name. Hampered rather than assisted here. ofore by his father’s fame, young Mr. Chaney emerges from obscurity to give a memorable performance. The rest of the cast is recruited from Westerns, “quickies” and the stage. Few of the names are familiar, Charles Bickford is rescued from Class. B. villainy, and Bob Steele and Noan Beery Jr. from the mustang melodramas. Roman Bohnen from New York’s| Group Theater is flawless as Candy, and as much may be said for Leigh Whip= per as Crooks, the crippled Negro. The secret of this admirable gallery of performances is not hard to find. The producers simply cast the players to the parts, regardless of name, fame or boxoffice. Such practice is ordinary on roadway but practically a revolutfon on the West Coast. In fact, it happens so seldom that you really should lose no time in viewing t nis phenomenon. Sulfapyradine and Liskin) derangement’ are among ithe dramatic ingredients of “The Secret of Dr. Kildare,” third of M-G-M’s popular medical series, which completes Loew’s bill. Barrymore again are featured.—J. T.

Lyric : Ted Lewis comes back to the Lyric this week with the same much-loved hokum and songs that have made him a perennial Indianapolis favorite for umpteen years, With him he brings three girls pretty enough to satisfy the most discriminating taste. 1 it appeal 1

is well nigh universal, with music, philosophy and pulchritude offering complete entertainment. A good- setting, blary music with plenty of rhythm, a girl that dances, and a couple of good trios make up the show. It's fun for ithe audience because, with Boss Lewis at their head, the folks on the stage are having a good time, too. “Snowball” Whittier, who’s been with the boss man ‘many years, struts his stuff with Mr. Lewis in “Me and My Shadow”! just as he's always done, Muggsy Spanier, who's played the trumpet for the “old man” for “12° or 14 years,” is still| there. He's got the Swing Qctette with him this time. (Theyre all boys from the band.) The Radio Aces are a men’s trio. They are the Ritz Brothers set to music. . Those beautiful girls are the Dennis Sisters, one blond, one brunet and one redhead. Only one thing is puzzling about Marie Hollis. +She’s a | contortionist dancer and moves only in series of cartwheels. Wonder if she gets around that way after show hours, too? The cast is completed with an eccentric dance couple, the Hackers, and a toe dancer, Betty Jane Smith. [hey got laughs and | cheers from the folks that count—the audience. The movie features Jane Withers, who recently told us she never wanted to be anything but a comedienne. She’s in “High School,” a

season will be the song recital by

cornered Geronimo, the bad Indian (historically speaking), isn’t in the cinema version, but Preston Foster and William Henry are. So Geronimo (cinematically speaking) bites the dust anyway at the Circle this week in the movie of the same name. The locale of the film is Arizona and New Mexico. The bad Indians are incited by the bad white men to combine forces and wage incessant war on the good white men. Gen. Steele of the U. S. Army (a good soldier, sir!) is in command of the Government forces sent to make peace with Geronimo, leader of the Apaches and their confederates. Failing that, he is to wipe them out. His son, whom he has never seen since a domestic squabble with his wife, is in the force sent west. He is fresh from West Point with a letter from President Grant. He doesn’t know about how to fight Indians. Andy Devine, the intrepid scout, knows all about it. So does Preston Foster. Together and with the help of mother and son Henry's fiancee, they involve the regiment in enough fights with the Indians to satisfy any movie audience. Geronimo is finally subdued, the Indians are dispersed and the frontier is made safe for the westward sweep of new traders, frontiersmen ‘and settlers. The other picture is a Lupe Velez-Donald Woods-Leon Errol comedy called “Mexican Spitfire.” Miss Velez has a knack of keeping things moving even if she can’t pro-

tect - her money from wandering;

Apollo

“A Child Is Born” is one of the

tempts—with some success—to be a story and not a clinical expose. It is the story of a girl sentenced to prison for murder, and her husband, as they await the birth of their child. Around that story are the histories of other women -who are in the hospital to have their babies. Geraldine Fitzgerald is the girl. Jeffrey Lynn is the young husband. Their interpretations are fine. One by one each prospective mother has her child. A wasted vaudeville star has twins. The woman in the bed next to her loses her child. The almost-perennial visitor has her baby in record time. It’s just another vacation for her. The 18-year-old girl married without her parents’ knowledge has a red-haired baby. The convicted murderess waits through it all. Hers will be a difficult birth. She has gone through months of questioning, weeks of strain. She has nothing to live for. She is. physiologically unfit to have a child, as well.Her husband is out of a job. The apthorities have refused him admittance to his wife. The nurses are kind. They let him in. He sees her. He gives her courage. At the last minute he has a choice. An operation at the moment will save his child and lose him his wife. It is up to him to make the choice. The Apollo is showing single features these days. But the short

subject is an entertaining bit with|

“Slapsie Maxie” Rosenbloom and Johnnie “Scat” Davis. r. Davis is well known around here, being a favorite at the Lyric and also taking a featured part | in the current picture.—H. M.

| incisive and clear-cut.

THIS WEEK- END, for the first time since Fabien Sevitzky took command of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, an out-of-town conductor occupies the Murat podium. Heretofore Mr. Sevitzky’s only substitute has been Ferdinand Schaefer, conductor-emeritus, on his

annual appearance.

But Mr. Sevitzky is down with a : ood this week. So tonight's

audience will see our distinguished Chicago neighbor, Hans Lange, presiding. It is not neces-

sary to know Mr. Lange's record

to realize that he is a musician who knows his business thoroughly. For the performance which he gave with a strange orchestra on three rehearsals spoke volumes for his capabilities. > 8 8 = MR. LANGE'S READINGS are His conducting is supple, yet never way-

. ward. Details stood out in clear | relief yesterday as he unfolded a

program which included Weber's “Euryanthe” Overture, the “Italian” Symphony of Mendelssohn, the Schumann Piano Concerto, with Bomar Cramer as soloist, and Elgar’s- “Enigma” variations. Pervading qualities of Lange’s musicianship.seem to bz his insistence that the music be allowed to speak for itself, and that the line of melody flow always in a songful manner, with breadth of phrase and plastic nuance. This does not medn, however, that the forceful and dra-

‘matic were lacking.

The program is familiar enough

to require little dwelling upon.

However, I should like to remark that circumstances conspired to increase my enjoymentsof the Elgar Variations. : Usually I am taken up with the program notes, trying to conjure up the likenesses of Elgar's “14 friends” painted in the 14”variations. Since yesterdays was a substitute program, and a lastminute one, there were no notes to beguile one away from the music. Consequently there was nothing to do but regard Mr. Elgar

Mr. |

as a composer rather than the man with the musical brushes and pencils. To me, at least, the friends’ absence was no great loss. Simply as variations per se, the work becomes quite intriguing, though along past the halfway mark, I still have the feeling that “this is where I came in.”

” fd 8 IT WAS A GENUINE pleasure to hear Mr. Cramer again with ‘the orchestra, _especially in a ‘work which so obviously suits his taste and talents. Certainly the Schumann Concerto is one of the happiest, loveliest works ny the piano - and - orchestra litergiilire. Where can we find more” spo taneous, unforced inspiration, or music fitted to its medium with more ease and apparent inevitability ? Yet some pianists are prone to be misled by Schumann's “romanticism” and deliver the work in swooning phrases. Mr. Cramer, fortunately, is not one of these. His approach is dignified and direct, though never matter-of-fact. The bounds of good taste are never over-stepped.. Since Mr, Cramer is resident in our midst it is our particular privilege to note the growth and’ deepening of his musical perception. Since he played the same concerto with the orchestra and Mr. Schaefer some © five or six years ago it is possible to note the greater penetration of his musical conception in this case. Moreover, his technical powers lose none of their cunning with : the passing years.

show only pictures they (the patrons) prefer, some of the managers report. The managers say the customers sometimes feel they’ve shown a “bad” one on purpose. . . . One of the movie-

like that might have happened during the Bank Night days, but that in recent years they've thrown away some movies already purchased because they felt they weren't up to standard. He blames “bad” pictures on the producers. He also admits, though, that a “bad” picture one place is a “good” picture other places. The whole question gets down to block booking, by which the exhibitor must take all the pictures made by a producer.
