Here's Martin Kosleck (that's his real name) and the role of German propaganda in “Confessions of a Nazi Spy.” Kosleck’s etched-in-acid characterization was huzzahed by a pre- view audience including most major producers, many major di- rectors. In his case the path has been toward rosy opportunities: Kosleck has good parts to burn. But a couple of years ago a sweet motherly type named Mary Gordon was equally acclaimed. She was in a popular hit, “The Irish in Us.” Because of it, the door to bigger things seemed opened wide. But nothing ever happened—nothing much. You still see Maty Gordon in pictures, but there hasn't been a role commensurate with her proven abilities since. Why? Perhaps it was only the turn of the wheel. Perhaps the people who cheered her then merely forgot. to obscurity minist A sad-eyed, lean Russian who had been lost in gangland bits one day turned up as a monkey-mad, berserk screwball in “My Man Godfrey,” and Mischa Auer hasn’t had a real worry since. But years ago, in a picture called “Bad Girl,” was an exquisite single scene played by Sarah Padden, a scene that caused all manner of comment and predictions of a brilliant future. Miss Padden kept on acting, just as brilliantly, but stardom somehow passed her by. In the recent “Love Affair” a brilliant career was re-born through a distinguished bit. Ferike Boros, long idle after an acci- dent, and down to her last dime, was given a chance at the role of Irene Dunne’s garrulous landlady. From that time, happily, Miss Boros has reaped a harvest of opportunities. But among the brilliant characterizations in “Juarez” one e “Come and Get It Has a Special Meaning Tasty food, efficient service and an atmosphere truly home-like sound the old call of “Come and Get It"” .. . “PERCY’S | ' especially, although in the minor brackets, stood out: the role of the Mexican boy who died bearing a message to his leader. The boy wasn't billed. Manuel Diaz from a Mexican little theatre group, may have another opportunity because of his work there, but it has not come yet. In the film that introduced Simone Simon with such fanfare, “Girls' Dormitory,” a romantic but was played by a handsome young fellow who had tried in vain to crash Hollywood. That bit was all Tyrone Power needed. It took Edward Ellis longer Ellis, an established character actor, came out for the title role in “The Thin Man.” Killed early in that story, his role could scarcely be called an oppor- tunity. He played others, and yet it was three years before his movie career came to full flower with “A Man to Remember,” flourished further with “Man of Conquest.” Eddie Collins, burlesque comic, modeled for Dopey in “Snow White” and because of it he won a bit in “In Old Chicago,” so comical that it gained more ‘ootage. Eddie took a top spot in one of the recent Jones Family films. But it has been several years since Claudette Colbert’s “Imita- tion of Life.” In it, a young Negro actress named Friedl Wash- ington gave a superb dramatic performance. That, so far as Hollywood was concerned, was the end. Friedi went back to the stage, which probably is where she belongs until she can take over the “mammy” roles which represent Hollywood's only opportunities for the women of her race. Mammies and blues-singers, comed- jans and tap-dancers can flourish in films regardless of race. For straight dramatic stuff—they just don't make pictures about young Negro girls. Sometimes the wheel of fortune pauses on the wrong color, too. fines jumped from $12 in May to $397 in were 1y brilliant characterization as the newspaperman. Sam Levene plays the police lieutenant in grand fash- lion, and Miss Stanwyc ) Frances Mercer, Vicki Le nor Hanson, Whitney Bourne, erine O'Quinn, Ann Evers and Lin- da Terry provide splendid support along with Stanley Ridges, Leona Maricle, James Burke, Paul Guil- foye and Penny Singleton.
