N MOMENTS Cross.” Hollywood Sights And Sounds HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March 25.—The name of the picture is “Boy Slaves” and this is the story behind it. It's an “‘old” picture as movies go. That is, it was first pre- viewed, months ago. RKO, which made it, wasn't quite certain what to do about it. It was considered strong meat for the movies. The preview reaction—such as it was—was weird. People either raved about it, or damned it. We who trot around from “big” preview to “colossal” preview, naturally, didn't see it. We were probably engaged in casting eyes and rocks at the current boy- meets-girler that evening, and after that—well, there isn’t much time to catch up on the “littlies.” So I guess it was Mrs. Roose- veélt, and het comments, that made “Boy Slaves” a must. Like “A Man to Remember,” this is a “little” picture. It cost about $170,000 to the other film’s 6119000 and it had even fewer “names” in its cast. It treats of life as it is alleged (by the film) to exist in turpen- tine camps somewhere in the south. It shows a gang of hoodlums turned over to a “kindly” turpentine boss by careless authorities. It shows the youngsters as prisoners, chained by easy eredit at the “company store” as effectively d4s by barbwire fences and guards. It is going to make a lot of people ‘mad. " And it should make people mad if it is all as true as P. J. Wolfson, m director, insists it is. The piclure, therefore, is not pleasant, but belongs to the we’re modest ... but we still have to admit that we serve the finest plate luncheon in all Juneau — for only forty cents — Perey’s “can-sich-things-be” school of the cinema. It has savage bril- liance uncompromising realism. Yb:x Wolfson (“Pinkie” to his friends) is & writer iiaking his bow here as a director. He hit on this subject for his first vehicle two years be(m'e he could persuade a Studio to let him miake it. * As a veteran of the boy-meeu-ulrl type of script (“Vivacious Lady” is excellently typical) he deeided l,hnt pu:mres were t.oo largely devoted to this theme. While employéd in a New York drugstore, Pinkie had written three novels before submitting one to a publisher. His first sold— then his second and third. He had riever had a rejection slip. At any Tate, he put on crusader’s armor and assémbled his cast. the boy Jameés McCalion (the hoodlum leader in the film) he took from a Broadway stage failure. 'Roger Daniel, who had béen a stand-in, he cast as the film’s good boy. He wl Anne Shirley easily enouxh—«whwh is a condition that will change as soon &8s producers wake up to the fact that she’s one of our finest young actresses. The story of “Boy Slaves,” he says, is based on child Iabor documents, on incidents gathered at various locales, concentrated for dramatic purposes into one setting. It is presenited frankly, he says, in the hope that it will “do some good.” 2 “And not, T hope, to start a cycle,” he says. “I don't believe in movie cyeles.” His next film will be “The First Rebel,” a study of one John Smlthwhnladneolonmrebemonmtmmushmpam sylvania years. before the real revolution' ANNUAL MEETING of congregation 7:30 Wednesday.
