Suffice it to say that Jolson has never been quite so Jolsonian, never quite so tremendously appealing. The sup- port is especially adequate, the pho- tography is beautiful and Lloyd Bacon has done a masterly piece of directing. | “NO CONTROL” GOOD | COMEDY AT PALACE 33 o When the big game hunter in| Africa laughingly remarked to hi black jungle guide, “the spring of the lion is much more dangerous than the spring of a clock,” he had no thought of Harrison Ford, who is co-featured with Phyllis Havre in “No Control,” a new Metropolitan picture coming to the Palace for the last two times tonight, and who heartily agrees with every word the hunter said. In this new production Ford has several exciting scenes with a burly lion. He frankly admits that he prefers his animals in a zoo with a cage between, but in the picture he ! is very much inside the cage with the “King of all beasts.” In one of the scenes in a radio broadcasting station, he has to get in and wrestle with Numa. And he does not use a double. “No Control,” was adapted by Zelda Sears and Tay Garnett from a_humorous story by Frank Con- don, “By Remote Control.” Scott Sidney directed. Tom Wilson, J. Duffy, Toby Claude, E. J. Ratcliffe and Larry Steers have the other important parts. 1t is all comedy, scenes laid in a circus, carnival, race track and broadcasting room. ke | HAROLD BELL WRIGHT | PICTURE FOR PALACE : l‘Alet: B.
