Circle

The first matter of business in

this| review might be to allay the fears of those who saw S. N. Behrman’s comedy, cryptically titled “No| Time for Comedy,” in Indianapolis. It had its first performance anywhere at English’s in the spring of 1939. A lot of us saw and liked it. But when you see its film version on the Circle screen, you may think - for a while that there was no time for Mr. Behrman. Don’t despair. The picture is more than half finished before the Behrman play commences, but the added prolog is grand fun. It takes a brave soul to graft wit onto the polished comedies which Mr. Behrman writes. That's what has been done, however, by the script-writing Epsteins, Julius J. and Philip G.—and successfully. They have taken Mr. Behrman's young playwright, Gaylord Esterbrook, tailored him to fit James Stewart, and filled in some years before Mr. Behrman met him. Accordingly we see him coming into New York from a whistle stop called Redfield, Minn., looking rather uncomfortable in his store clothes. We follow him through the further dis- . comfort of having his first play belittled by producer and director, dropped and eventually revived and financed by the lovely star whom he later marries. The play is a hit. So are his next three. And this brings him up to where Mr. Behrman found him, a successful, dissatisfied playwright with an engaging manner and an inordinate capacity for liquor. Then the original author takes over and “No ‘Time for Comedy” proceeds as we first knew it. Gaylord gets in the clutches of Amanda Swift, who sees “latent possibilities” in him and persuades him to do a serious play. All this is simply Amanda's devious and devilish lovemaking, but Gay falls for it. He writes the play and it flops. And then there is Linda, waiting fo her| errant husband after Amanda walks | out with the play’s director, who, also has “latent possibilities.” Mr. Behrman wrote his play in a semi-serious vein. He questioned whether such writers as himself should be content with pleasant comedy in a world filled with tragedy. The picture doesn't bother much with this. The play's most. important speech is the one in which Linda denounces Amanda's sneering, materialistic husband. The film slips over this hurriedly and misses Mr. Behrman's point. But nobody should object. It's a gay little piece, filled with some brilliant wisecracks and handsomely acted. .The - Stewart fans should delight in their favorite again. And some of the patrons may agree with me that Rosalind Russell does a better job with Linda than Katharine Cornell did. . Thomas Hughes’ [old favorite,

Warner Bros. ought to get some special sort of award when the MPPDA passes out the Oscars at its annual banquet next winter. For the studio has turned out a picture called “City for Conquest” in which the pugilist-hero doesn’t win the championship in the big fight, and the dancer-heroine doesn’t get to be a big revue star on Broadway. Yes sir; the millenium seems to be just around the corner. Aside from these two revolutionary stepsithe film is not of worldshaking proportions; But this departure from tradition seems about

the biggest thing in the industry since Shirley Temple played five weeks at the Apollo. “City for Conquest” has a familiar villain, ‘the treacherous island of Manhattan, It’s blamed for practically everything that happens, from Danny’s losing his sight in the championship fight when his opponent goughes his eyes with rosin, to Peggy's going hungry when she quits her arrogant dancing partner for love of Danny. It's a sad and sentimental tale of conflicting ambitions: Peggy's to be a famous dancer, and Danny's to be a. respectable truck driver with a home in the Bronx. The tribulations are plenty, but the happy ending finally comes with Peggy reunited with the blind Danny in front of his newsstand, on the night of Danny's brother's triumphant debut with the Philharmonic as composer-conductor. James Cagney. gets a chance to be both tough and pathetic as Danny, and handles the assignment in his usual winning manner. Ann Sheridan, allowed to forget her “oomph” title for the moment, gives a sincere if not arresting performance as Peggy. Others in the able cast are Frank McHugh, Frank Craven, Donald Crisp, Arthur Kennedy (the musician brother) and George Tobias. And there is an especially good job by Anthony Quinn as the brutal and conceited dancer. Also on the credit side is Anatole Litvak’s production and direction. And given a better script, the picture might have turned into extra good entertainment. But John Wexly, the screen playwright, has put into the players’ mouths a collection of purple platitudes which must have been pretty hard to read with a straight face. - Poor Mr. Kennedy, especially, is called upon to speak throughout like a fulsome treatise on the esthetics of music. Murder and vengeance in the North Woods is the theme of the Indiana's accompanying picture, “River's End,” in which Dennis Morgan is starred.—J. T.

Lyric

Phil Spitalny brings to the Lyric this week his |all-girl “Hour of Charm” orchestra which you've heard via radio each Sunday night for some time now. The 21 girls make a pretty picture on the stage. They are gowned in diaphanous white against a starry backdrop which catches the multicolored lighting effects for which Mr. Spitalny is noted At their opening performance, the girls were called back for repeated bows, once when Maxine, of the haunting voice, and the glee club sang ‘“‘Ave Maria”; again when the Singing Strings gave a pulsating arrangement of “I'll Never Smile Again,” finally when the orchestra’s ‘arranger, Evelyn, played the solo violin in “The Breeze and 1

Besides her numbers with the|

glee club and the band, the svelte, dark Maxine is featured in “Tennessee Fish Fry.” In addition to the violin sextet the orchestra has several outstanding instrumentalists, particularly on the clarinet, piano and harp. Its repertory ranges from Ravel's “Bolero” to the swingy “In The Mood.” Maxine is not the only vocalist. An unidentified girl closed the show as soloist in “God Bless America.” Then, too, there are the Three Little Words who specialize in novelty numbers of the “Tavern in 8 Town” type. The band this year has two additional performers—a young lady who mimics screen stars and Johnny Coy, a dancer, late of “Keep Off the Grass.” On the screen is “Queen of the Yukon” with Charles Bickford and Irene Rich. The story (by Jack London), is about a lovely gambling lady and her daughter who join up with the card shark and daughter's suitor to foil the claim jumpers.

OLIVIA'S CASE SETTLED

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 5 (U.P.).— Olivia de Havilland was spared a trip to court today to defend herself in a $6500 suit over an automobile collision. - The suit was filed by Mrs. Esther Moss, who was injured when her automobile and Miss de Havilland’s crashed in April, 1939. The case was settled out of court.
