JOHN: BOLES Attractions At Theatres | “SAY IT WITH SONGS,” AT COLISEUM TONIGHT s L “The singin'est picture I ever made,” Al Jolson says of “Say It ‘With Songs,” his latest Vitaphone all-talking, all-singing Warner Bros. picture which comes to the Coli- ! seum tonight. The story or “suy 1t with Songs” leads naturally to a wide selection of songs. In the role of songwrit- er ‘and radio efitertainer the onée and only Al has a chance to sing many new numbers, new ones and . several old ores. He is seen sing- ing at broadcasting stations at home to his Little Pal and (played inimitably by wee Davy Lee) and from prison where he has been sent + as the result of the accidental kill- * ing of man who tried to break up ~ his home. It is considered rare good | fortune by a song writer to have Jolson choose one of his songs for that alone stamps it with later public - approval. Most. of Jol- son's songs are either written by himself or in collaboration. In a “pieture that has as many musical .hits as “Say It With Songs,” how- ever, a staff of qualified Tin Pan Alley musical = experts were en- gaged to do the songs. The story of “Say It With Songs,’ is by Darryl Francis Zanuck and - Harvey Gates. Scenario by Jo- seph Jackson.

The scene here is tly the same as it would be| on the stage, with Doyle, in Lh:‘: person of the veteran actor Lionel| Barrymore, probing relentlessly into the boy’s past, Jimmy parrying his thrusts adroitly; then, in a second'’s| time, without any letdown in dra- matic intensity, the scene is chang- ed to the vault downstairs where the small sister of the girl Jimmy loves is accidentally imprisoned.
