Most of the action takes| place on a semi-tropical island of the Pacific, and in order to estab- lish an unquestioned setting of authenticity the Gotham Production unit made a veritable expedition to Samoa which entailed a 22-day trip across the lazy waters of the Pacific. | Thus shots of native villages and | native Samoans give a substantial interest to the story. It is the exotic tale of primitive passions and love conflict far removed from the outposts of civilization, when both cultured white people and unletter- ed natives intimately envolved in the working out of a daring ro- mance. i The explosion of a yacht, peopled by gay, jazzy passgnger groups, is one of the best action scenes which dramatically enhances the interest of the story. Margaret Livingston and Holmes Herbert portray the feature roles. Natalie Joyce, former follies girl, is said to contribute an extraordi- nary character portrayal, the part of a beautiful native girl in love with the white overseer of the is- land. Clyde Cook whose comic nuances have elevated the enter- taining quality of countless films, is also in the cast. CROOK DRAMA FILLED WITH CLEVER ACTING o e e o o “Beware of Blondes,” the Co- lumbia producilon which opens at the Coliseum tonight, is a crook drama with a novel twist. Mystery 'nnd suspense continue throughout the production with the denoue- ment coming as a complete surprise.

While on location, Brendel was assigned a horse that cxhibited a most unbecoming lack of friendli- ness. He kicked, pawed, snorted, bucked and snapped at Brendel,| finally winding up by getting his hind foot caught in the stirrup. “Here!” cried Brendel to Direc- tor John Waters, dismounting more speedily than gracefully and throw- ing down the reins, “you take him. | If he wants to get on I'm getting off!” By F.
