JOAN CRAWFORD IS SPLENDID IN THRILLING FILM |“Today We Live” at Capl-: } tol Is Qutstandingly Dif- ferent War Picture | The origina! announcement of “Today We Live,” now being shown ]at the Capital Theatre, as Joan| Crawford’s first war story, was suf- ficient to pique the curiosity of her admirers. Modern generation roles | have so exclusively engaged the attention of the vital Miss Craw- ford that war and melodrama| seemed novel when linked with the | mname of this popular star. “Today We Live,” however, serves | to emphasize the fact that Miss | Crawford - is a particularly well-| rounded actress. And the combined appearance of this star with Gary .Cooper has given the screen one of its most interesting and engross- ing romances. All Leave for the Front | | As Diana, an aristocratic Englizh | girl, Miss Crawford receives ,word | of the death of her father at thel the day in ‘Which her Franchot Tone, and her | childhood sweetheart, Robert | Young, join the British navy. Shortly after, word comes that | Cooper, the American officer whom Diana has come to love, has been killed in an airplane crash. It is a thrilling moment on the | screen when Cooper, after the e: roneous report of his death, comes back, and again encounters Diana, | who with her brother and child- hood sweetheart, is caught in th frenzy of wartime emotions changed standards, in a small bxl— let town on the French Coast. “Today We Live” is without a doubt one of the most human stories of the war and Howard Hawks is to be congratulated for his masterful direction of a fine! screen show. Miss Crawford and { Cooper make a brilliant romantic ‘team and the effective work of Young, Tone, Roscoe Karns and| ‘[Louise Closser Hale also contrib- |utes to make this picture one of the most enjoyable seen on the | screen in some time. : | front on I brother, a minute.

VERSION OF Coliseum Presents Prob- lem to Young, Old “What Price Innocence?”, the question of the day— photoplay which is coming to the Coliseum Theatre tonight, is a “SHALL WE TELL story of modern youth, but it is| OIVR CHILDREN?” inot a jazz picture. « Willard Mack, the author of the scenarlo as well as its director and | leading actor, for years has had the conviction that “jazz" pictures | @ | do not present a proper picture of | modern youth. | “The pictures we've had in the |last few years,” he contends, “are| all one sided. They would make us believe that all our children are | gin-drinkers and do nothing but! attend parties where they carry on in disgraceful manner.” ! The motion picture he nas just finished, his first great drama aft- er years of being the master hand of American melodrama, is the re- sult of this point of view. “What | Price Innocence?” centers around the lives of two young girls. One ! has been warned of the dangers jand pitfalls which abound in the | path of youth, while the other has been kept in ignorance by a doting mother, whose excuse is “but noth- ing like that would happen to our | ehild.” There are wild parties in the | picture and plenty of free talk, but it is not a ‘“jazz” age picture pre- sented with suggestiveness. It has ‘been approved by many women's | organizations. | The cast that was assembled in- cludes the most able portrayer of youth, Jean Parker, who has her first leading role and as a result | her work in this picture, is soon to appear in a stellar part. Willard Mack who plays the | part of the family physician = known to every American theatre- goer.
