HOLLYWOOD'S LATEST communique from the Norwegian front

Despite many bad momehts, the film mahages to reach a high point of excitement and the story is pretty fair. The choice of Fiynn and Annie the Oomph was unfortunate. Both seemed out of their element, what with no private yachts nor juke boxes within shouting distance. The acting in the fim is done by Walter Huston, Nancy Coleman ahd some bit players. Flynn, ooking dashing and daring, speaks his piece as though he's reading the funnies to one of his little friends. Annie behaves like a gun
