GUILD LUNCHEON MYSTERY FILM - OF YEAR HERE “The Thin Man‘ Four-Star Drama with Excellent Cast at Capitol “The Thin Man,” Metro-Gold- wyn-Mayer- Cosmopolitan picture which opened Sunday at the Capi- tol Theatre, is one of the best un- usual pictures to come out of Hol- lywood in many a long day. A detective mystery, it presents William most amusing sleuthing role of his career, ably assisted by charming Myrna Loy as his wife, Nora. Full of Suspense As Nick Charles, a retired detec- tive, Powell goes to New York with his lovable, wealthy wife, for the holidays. There, against his will, he becomes involved in a triple mur- der mystery which remains a baf- fling, bewildering problem until the very last few feet of the final reel are unwound—and the method by which the solution is reached should receive an Academy Award for its originality. | The picture never lags in inter- | est, keeps the audience on the edge | of their seats every minute, and furnishes respite from the tension | it gives to jaded nerves by a ub— eral sprinkling of humorous situa- tions and dialogue. | Minna Gombell Excellent Minna Combell, usually seen in | comedy roles, appears in the new picture in a highly emotional part | and puts it over in splendid order, | while Nat Pendleton at last has lbeoome a law-abiding citizen in a | police officer’s character. | Director W. S. Van Dyke should | be commended for the deft manner {in which*he filmed Dashiell Ham- mett’s best-selling novel, and sev- eral other participants in the cast deserve a pat on the back. C.

LUCAVISH DIES, PORTLAND PORTLAND, Oregon, Dec. 10.— Mrs. Eliza Jane Lucavish, aged ?9 years, resident of Skagway, Alaska, during the gold rush days, is dead here. Mrs. Lucavish came south to Portland in 1905 and has resided here since then. UNUSUAL THEME IN FILM MOST ENTERTATNING at Coliseum Stars Claudette Colbert Noted for providing the ultimate in screen entertainment, Cecil B. DeMille scores another big hit with ‘his latest Paramount picture, “Four Frightened People,” which is now playing at the Coliseum Theatre. Story, acting, settings and di- rection held the audiences spell- | bound with one eye-filling surprise after another. From the time the four princi- pals, two men and two women, es- cape from a Dutch steamer on which bubonic plague has broken out and start their journey to civ- ilizatlon through the Malay jun- gles, there is not a moment in the | picture when interest wanes. Their gradual reversion to the primitive provides some highly nover situa- tions. Claudette Colbers 1s. outstanding with one of the most colorful roles of her career, that of a prudish school teacher whom the two men consider in their way. When the Jungle causes her to blossom into | a wild, beautiful creature, the men start fighting over her. Herbert .Marshall and William .Gargan give splendid performances as the marooned rubber chemist and newspaper correspondent who | fight over Claudette’s charms, while | Mary Boland, characteriation, in a deft comedy walks away with .many of the honors of the picturs. Leo Carillo displays splendid abi ity in the role of a half caste guide. ‘There were no Hollywood “sets” for these people to walk through, and the real jungles in which the picture was filmed, are, them- selves cause for interest and amaze- | ment. | A good job of adaptation of the | original novel by E. Arnot-Robert- i son was turned in by Bartlett Cor- mack and Lenore Coffee. D NEW EQUIPMENT FOR NOME'S DISTRICT COURT INSTALLED night. of the year.
