This picture marks the screen debut of Paul Robeson, famous Negro con- cert singer and actor, and the in- itial production of John Krimsky and Gifford Cochran, those intre- pid young’ men who brought “Macd- chen in Uniform” to this country. In contributing “Emperor Jones” to the screen the Messrs. Krimsky and Cochran, with the acquiescence and endorsement of Mr. O'Neill, have elaborated the story in such fashion that the career of Brutus | Jones is traced from the day in which he confidently leaves his South Carolina home to enter the marts of commerce and advenitre as a Pullman porter. The O'Neill play has wcin pre- served intact, but before we sec Jones about to flee from his voo- doo-supported throne, the life of the outlawed porter is in brief slices leading up t eventful day when he is washe ashore on a tropical island, a fugi- tive from justice. His rise and fall, his avarice,| his romances, his arrogance and his egotism, are all pictured, where- as, in the original, Jones’ sins and transgressions are only discovered when ghosts of them turn up tc be-devil him as he barges delir- jously through. Tonight Oniy His outstanding characterizaticns as the hard-boiled butler in the stage version of “The Animal King- dom” earned William Gargan an RKO contract under which his first appearance was the same role in the screen version o fthat play Presently, he enacts the adventur- ous newsreel cameraman in “Head- portra) Ld 5 es tonight.
