THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, MAY 9, 1938 “I could have been an artist, but I had to give it up because I was always getting paint on my clothes.” | AT THE MOVIES HIS CURIOUS WORLD ‘The PORPOISE 1S BELIEVED To HAVE GEEN ‘THE CAUSE OF THE ANCIENT SEA SERPENT STORIGS? DORPOISES, SWWAMING IN SINGLE FLE, RESEMBLE A HUGE, WINDING SERPENT/ Notable Film to Be Shown Here “Rasputin and the Empress,” Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's sensational | drama of the fall of the Romanoffs, | with John, Ethel and Lionel Barry-! more together on the screen for the . first time, is the attraction coming) ‘Wednesday to the Paramount thea-! ter. Based: on happenings within the; memory of the present generation,) the picture’s episodes present a rep-| lica of the most colorful royal court | in the world, thus including the spec- | » tacle of a “period” picture while still; remaining strictly a-modern story. | Ethel Barrymore plays the Em-| press, John is cast as Prince Che-| godieff, and Lionel essays the role} of the “Holy Devil” in the sensa-j tional picturization of the downfall | of the Empire and the rise of the, Bolshevik regime. In every case,) perfect makeup makes the charac- ters exact replicas of the originals. Richard Boleslavsky, author of “The Way of a Lancer,” and for- mer director in the Moscow Art theater, directed the spectacle, from an original story by Charels Mac- Arthur. Hundreds appear in the great throne room scene, the cathe- Gral episode and other incidentals. Intense dramatic material is con- tained in the hypnotizing of the lit- tle prince by Rasputin, in his in- trigues and orgies and in the ven- geance of the nobles after his tam-! pering has sent the empire on its| way to ruin. Another spectacular | | detail is a great review of Russian | The cast in support of the Barry- mores includes Ralph Morgan, Diana * Wynyard and Tad Alexander. j should be a panorama, Picture at Capitol Commands Attention I commend to your. attention one of the grandest talking pictures any- one of us is ever likely to see. In the past four years we have had a number of outstanding talking pic- tures, but none in the same class with “Be Mine Tonight,” which is at the Capitol theater. In the first place, “Be Mine To- night” is a film and not a photo- graphed stage play. It has thrown off the shackles of the studio and escaped to the open air. It presents an evenly flowing continuity of swift motion against richly varied: and really magnificent scenery. A picture “Be Mine Tonight” is a panorama of Alpine settings of exquisite beauty perfectly photographed and flawlessly knit to- gether in dramatic sequence. Then the basis of this drama is joyful adventure, tender romance, great and glorious fun. And beyond all these delights, we have incomparable music. Kiepura, who has a golden voice, and is the sensation of Europe, brings to this film a soaring ecstasy of song alto- gether without parallel in motion pictures. It is predicted that he will become the rage and will be seen in many other pictures released in America. This triumphant result has been achieved by searching Europe for the finest available talent. The director, Anatole Litwak, is a young Russian exile who tomorrow will be famous. The heroine, Magda Schneider, is a German girl, of 19 who is a discov- ery of discoveries. The comedians are Sonnie Hale, Edmund Gwenn and Athene Seyler. Universal is to be congratulated for releasing this delightful entertainment. THE GUMPS— TOWNSEND, THE TERROR WELL- WHAT NEWS!
