If you "-uv “Night Must Fall” you must gree that the boy can act. x 1‘ Here is a murder picture as far ,removed irom the average screen| thriller as a Tiffany diamond from! | dime store sparkler. It is in no 'nse a guessing contest like the rage mystery [ilm. You know, almost_from the first, that Danny |the hotel page boy, is the murderer. You watch him, live with him,| him carry on his masquerade | innocence while ploting other | \murders, see him break in terror! {when alone and yet strive further| to lift himself “to distinction.” : Baby-Faced Boy | Watching Montgomery's ch:\rnc-! [terization, you 'see the workings of ;1! misshapen mentality in the midst 'of every-day surroundings. Danny, the baby-faced page boy, worms his way cleverly into the service of an old country woman (Dame May Whitty) and intrigues her repressed niece (Rosalind Russell) who lives with her. As Ahe girl who suspects and yet is fascinated by the killer, Miss Russell gives a brilliant, per- formance, and Dame May Whitty, especially in a later dramatic se- quence, proves herself a real addi- tion. o Eerie, suspense-filled, and morbid in a sense, the film should prove exciting to many and, to psychiat- rists, a real delight. To play the role, Montgomery had to buck studio convictions_that he was fitted only for the cocktail shaking playboy parts of his more recent past. He collected fan: crit- icisms of himself in previous roles and used them as an argument. After the picture got under way, Metro began to realize that it had something, and production plans were expanded. To young director Richard Thorpe this was a ‘real opportunity and he has made the most of it. His first ambitious undertaking, the film owes much of its quality to his touch. Another Triangle Story For “The Woman I Love,” praise can be more reserved. Director anatole Litvak had a time-worn triangle, some exciting serial war- fare stories from a previously re- story, and a capable cast for his materials. Louis Hayward plays the young aviation officer who falls in love with Mariam Hopkins, She is the wife of the man (Paul Muni) who is to become his air-companion and |best friend. = The situation is no :more and no less interesting than ,usual, despite the efforts of all con- {cerned. The work of the principals jlifts it above the ordinary run of {war stories, and a youngster named ‘Wally Albright (not so long ago he was a_curly-headed baby in Gloria |Swanson fims) brightens the pro- ceedings. | | | | Helen Broderick got her first start in “Fifty Million Frenchmen,” and so did Betty Compton, who is Mrs. Jimmy Walker.

MARRIAGE SEEN A HEALTH AID SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., May 12.— Marriage might not be a curz-all remedy, but Dr, J. C, Geiger, city health director, reported that medi- cal statistics compiled by his office ishow the following: 1.—Married couples are 50 per cent more immune to tuberculosis than unmarried males and {emales. 2—Death rates in single women from cerebral hemorrhage are “ccn- |siderably higher” than married fe- males of advanced age. 3.—Marriage reduces worry and mental depression. { “Two important items in regard to the marital death rates in San Francisco are, first, tuberculosis in, which the deaths in the single group are so much greater for both male and female—virtually 50 per cent more than the married group,” said Dr. Geiger. “Second, in cerebral hemorrhage ' in the higher age groups the death rates in single women are consider- ably higher. “It must be considered from these figures that marriage offers a greater precaution against tulwrcu-l losis and cerebral hemorrhage | “And,” Dr. Geiger added, “since depressed mental conditions and worry are essential factors in both of these groups, marriage would statistically tend to reduce both worry and mental depression.” e, - Lode and placer location notices for sale at The Empire Office.
