“Indiany:
As the boys on the sports deck Hy it, you can give Deanna Durbin “seven for seven” in| your movie box-score. “It’s a Date” is young Miss Durbin’s seventh: film, and like all its predecessors it’s a sparklin o and wholly delightful parcel cinema fun. Perhaps the public gets tired: of reading in almost any review of any Durbin picture the news that here is another hit. But repetitive as this intelligence may be, it- still is cne of the wonders of Hollywood. = No {film star, from Chaplin and . Garbo and Muni up and down, has ever been so fortunate as this Canadian miss. Producer Joe Pasternak has never failed to provide __her with the most painstaking pro-. duction and direction and an excel-" dent cast. Mr. Pasternak and Miss ‘Durbin have reallystried. And in so. doing they've pulled Universal out of the red and given the picture - public a lot of pleasure. “It's a Date” is of the fluffiest substande. - It's about the attractive, talented and temperamental daughter of an actress who answers, to the same description. Both are chosen for the starring part in the same play, and both pf them happen to choose the same man to fall in love with. Fortunately the man, who is 40-odd, has the good grace . to propose to the mother, while the daughter gets the starring part and makes a hit.” . + The beautiful thing about this and al! the other Durbin pictures is that Miss Durbin’s parts have kept pace with her growing up. Each role is a perfect chronological fit. We've followed her from the point where she was the youngest daugh- , ter on through boarding school and * adolescent hero worship and the first kiss up to this nomen I'd venture a guess that even when Miss Durbin grows up to the ingenue age of boy-meets-girl, Mr. Pasternak will "devise something for her that is fresh and typical and believable. Meanwhile you may count “It's a Date’ movie blessings. Miss Durbin has Hover been surrounded with a better cast: Kay Francis as the mother; Walter Pidgeon, the object of contention; Cecilia Loftus, a grand actress in a gem of a performance;.S. Z. Sakall, a newcomer whose subtle comedy as the playwright 1s memorable; Samuel S. Hinds, Lewis Howard, Eugene Pallette and other depend‘ables. - It seems evident that Miss Durbin has a secure future in thé light, comedy field. Her voice, once a childish phenomenon, may soon become just another good soprano. But she has developed a remarkable deftness and grace in imparting to her performance the spark of infectious fun.
“Half a Sinner,” in Wich Heather Angel is starred.—J.

Lives of ;great men all remind us that when it comes time to make their screen biographies, the result - usually bears the Warner Bros. stamp. In Fhe case of “Young®Tom Edison,” however, it is M-G-M which does the honors to the inventor of motion pictures. And this studio approaches its subject in, an entirely different way from fhat of the people who madé the Pasteur, Zola and Ehrlich films. “Young Tem Edison” is a blend of fact and entertainment formula, with accent on Mickey Rooney, its star. The incidents upon which the picture is based are drawn from actual happenings in Edison’s life, except in the case of the film’s climax. But they are put together by such a pat and familiar formula that you may find yourself wondering if maybe it wasn’t Andy Hardy. who invented the phonograph and the electric light, We see young Tom, whose curiosity and originality make the neighbors think him “addled,” in a viriety of adventures. Punished in ~ school by being shut up in a small room, he tries a little chemical experimentation, fills the schoolhouse with smoke and brings out the fire department. He feeds the town bully with effervescent salts so he can fill up with “gas” and fly like a balloon. He rescues a little child from a runaway freight car. He prints and sells his own newspaper on the - train. He also continues hjs chemistry in the baggage car, concocts some nitroglycerin and frightens the passengers nearly to death. When, his mother needs an operas tion and the doctor can’t operate by lamplight, he puts all the lamps in the “house in in front of the buffet |

mirror and the operation: is. performed in the brilliant reflected il|lumination. As for the climax, it's. ‘concerned with a time when a bridge was out: over the St. Clair Rjver between Port Huron, Mich. and Canada. Edison, on the Port Huron side, tooted . Morse code ‘on. a locomotive whistle until a Canadian oper-
discovered the accident. 1 In the picture, Edison's sister replaces the operator, and there is. a wild race between trains with little sister persuading the conductor to pull the cord just before her. train plunges into the river. .. -: There is some. emphasis on: the deeper and: more important aspects of Edison’s youth. But for the most part “Young Tom Edison” is strictly a dish for Rooney fans. As conventional entertainment. there's no fault to find. But as a sincere dra-
tainly deserves: one from the -movie industry—well, that’s something else again. Young Mr. Rooney's performance is Rooneyish, and there is excellent support from. Fay Bainter, George Bancroft, Eugene :Pallette: and others—especially little Virginia Weidler. Loew's other picture is called “And {One Was Beautiful”—only one, with ‘two such charming: young ladies as Larainé Day ang. Jean Muir featured?—J. T."

Ann Sheridan has at last made a good picture. .Even the most: naive movie-goer had begun te wonder what this flitting in and out of alleged starring pictures meant for the every Miss Sheridan. - Questioned pr agents - “had a g into long’ accounts of what & wonderful girl Miss Sheridan was (off the screen.) “She’s a real sport,” they'd say. “And everyone is crazy about her.” In “It AH Came True,” which

breezes in at almost the: beginning of the movie and carries the show right to the end. She sings, dances, acts ahd shows her excellent figure to good advantage. The movie is a kind of Cinderella deal set to the scene of “You Can't Take It With You.” A New York boarding house is left lo two old ladies, one of whom has a daughter and the other a son. They also have dependents, superanhuated souls who would have no place to live if it were not for the bounty of the elderly women. The menage consists’ of an old
poet, a ham magician whose remain-
ing tricks are mildewed; an old man whose mind is gone and a fairly
oung old maid. The Indiana bill also includes yore

stead. From that point: the old ladies take hold and make the gangster into a benefactor who'd make. a Rockefeller look like a panhandler. The movie is taken from the book of the same name by Louis Bromfield. It is alive. with smart dialog and good situations handled well by an outstanding supporting cast. Jeffrey Lynn is believable as a hurt kid who’s been frying to write music and Humphrey Bogart is, as always, an extra special menace. Jessie Busley gives a good. performance as the would-be - composer’s. mother and part owner of the boarding house. The other movie is “The Courageous Dr. Christian,” with Jean: Hersholt. As usual, there is an epidemic, and as usual, Dr. Christian routs the gerims.—H. M. 8
Lyric
Wayne King: deserves all credit for the show he's putting on this week at the Lyric. He has gone to great effort to have everything smooth. As a result, the show ‘has class. The sets are designid for the music he plays. The lighting effects complement the music and each act. Mr. King says himself that there is a new order of things in music and he plays accordingly. Although he devotes some time to waltzes, he bows to -the inevitable by playing in faster tempo. - Starting with “Sunrise. Serenade,” — {he moves almost immediately into the new order with-“In the Mood.” After that comes a typical King re-

There are three woodwinds, three violins, two trumpets, a trombone, a bass viol, piano and drums. All the sets are owned by the orchestra leader and he has his own lighting director. He has ‘so many sets, he says: he ‘doesn’t know what

Harman is cue of several Western. artists and historians who have pointed out inaccuracjes in the drawing of the Pony Express messenger on the new 3-cent stamp. “Hm-ma-m,” said Mr. Benny. Then, with mounting interest, “Wal, I'll ‘be “dew-gone!” Suddenly he straightened with determination and called sharply, “Rochester, get me a horse!” “Yassuh, senor.” A sun-blackened vaquero in white 'silk fiesta outfit came around the corner at a brisk crawl. This was Benny's top hand, Jose, whom, he calls Rochester for short.- “Si, si, Mistuh Benny. Only Ah already got you a horse. It’s in the fourth race at—" “No, I mean ‘a hoss to ride.

But Rochester Has His Doubts About Using SwayBack Pony Express for That Anniversary Stamp HOLLYWOOD, April 13 (NEA).—Jack Benny, a fine figure of a Westerner if there ever was one, was lounging on the shady side of Paramount's $85,000 cook shack, or cafe, when someone innocently showed him a newspaper containing a -story about the Pony Express

where some of the scenes of his new picture have been filmed. Mr. Benny fumed about the errors in the portrayal of the pony postman. “I could see at a glance that the saddle bags, the gait oi.the horse and the posture of the rider were all wrong. Why didn't somebody ask me about it? It may be too late now, but I'll do what I can. Maybe Farley’ll put my picture on an 81st anniversary stamp.” Rochester, with a shaggy, swaybacked horse, was waiting. He also

orous inhabitants. But that is what Irwin Shaw has done in the Civic Theater's current attraction, “The Gentle People.” And he also has written a melodrama about an unusual “erime of passion.” The pleasures of existence have not been dealt out very generously to Mr. Shaw’s Jonah Goodman and: Philip Anagnos. Both are getting on in years. Jonah is married to a shrewish, complaining wife and is vaguely disturbed by his high-spirited and dissatisfied daughter Stella.” Philip is the Greek cook in an Italian restaurant, lonely, single and harried by the Italian widow who employs him and who wants him for a husband. Both: are “gentle people,” respectable, law-abiding and rather timorous. Their one pleasure is a pathetic fishing outing in a little boat with an outboard motor, a pleasure in which they indulge themselves four times a week. | Their one ambition is to own a 35-foot boat with two With | this they could sail down to the Florida coast for a month, forget business and family and pursuing sweetheart, and angle for the mighty swordfish.

TOWARD THIS AMBITION Jonah and Philip have saved $190 toward the $500 which the boat would cost. And then into their lives comes Harold Goff, a smalltime racketeer who extorts a weekly $5 for “protection.” To this the two old men bow. But when Goff steals Stella away

That, in substance, is what the play. is all about. By and large,. “The Gentle People” is a moving and pathetic picture of the fierce human insistence upon liberty of action, a variation on the story of the overloaded tamel. Instead of being broken by the last indignity of Goff’s racketeering, the two men turn upon him in a passionate defense of their one meager pleasure.
