WHAT PARTICULARLY bothers Henry Fonda in “You Belong to Me” is the fact that nearly all of Dr. “Stanwyck's patients are . handsome young men. e film is, one might say, the story of a bride who wouldn't stay. for breakfast. Unaccustomed to the ethics of the medical - profession, Hubby Henry breaks in on his wife while ‘ghe is examining a male patient. ‘Hubby - starts a: row, wil disregard for the effect t might have on Dr. Stanwyck’s standing. This . condition - continues until Mr. Fonda is alternately tripping his wife’s patients in ‘night ¢lubs, kicking them in the pants and offering to go out and fight with any of em.” Two -more salient features of the picture: Edgar Buchanan, the
. superb ‘comedian of “Penny Sere-
jo
nade,” has a supporting role and Roger Clark, who's been in a lot of shorts, gels his first important part. Mr. Clark, so the story . goes, is crm lb of Capt. Bp ree Clark, member of the late great exploring team of Lewis and
Clark. Just thought you ought to;

(It's in technicolor, if that will help ‘the disappointed girls any.) For purely business reasons, John Payne is obligated to take Alice Faye to Havana. He wants to persuade her fo sign a waiver after the passenger-liner she was on hangs up on a reef. Once in the “dream city,” she meets Cesar Romero, who thinks she is a rich
American heiress, and that makes’
Carmen Miranda mad because she sort of goes for Cesar.

At that point he drops theory for practice and goes out to cap--ture his mate, which is just what wifey intended in the first place. Clever gh, Rosalind.

Miss McKenzie, a lovely brunet, recently eompleted “Down Mexico Way,” a Gene Autry picture. She seems to have gone.over in that,- which means more than you might think, because the Autry fans are tough on the gals. When they dislike ’em they dislike ‘em loudly. Last year during the Hollywood run of “Meet the People” she had some film nibbles, but turned them down for a chance on Broadway. Republic studio finally hauled her home from New York. . In “Down Mexico Way” she got | a lead, but not much in the way of romance. The Autry fans don’t go for the lovey-duvey stuff, so their courting is all rather formal.
