Screenplay Haslin's homer with two men on bases. | Bill Cissel, Hollywood second baser, slid into home in the sev- !enth inning and spiked Bill Sal- keld. This started fists flying which soon involved so many players that the umpires eventually let all stay by Robert Ellis and Helen Logan, from story by Jesse Malo, Kenneth Earl and Ivan Kahn. Principals: Linda Darnell, John Directed by Walter Lang. Payne, Roland Young, Char- lotte Greenwood, William Gargan, Mary Beth Hughes, Mary Healy, Donald Meek, Harry Green, Jassie Ralph. “Stardust” is a bright and ingratiating piece about the youth- ful quest for fame in Hollywood, youngsters played by Darnell and romantic leads are “discoveries” of them to Hollywood for screen test: in paticular about a couple of Payne.

As a picture of the processes surrounding such tests, talent scouting in general and the idiosyncracies of movieland, “Star- dust” would hold interest for all the screen-struck. Adorned as it is with human, with good perfor: mances and amusing situations and lines, the picture should provide a leasant time also for those whose interest in filmland is mor re impersonal. “A star Is Born,” hit of a few seasons ago, explored the in- dustry with a more serious eye. the comedy angles, few of which i Like Miss Darnell in real life, rarily, only to click later.

Gargan plays a Banuck-like Payne, as a handsome, conceited breaking his nose before tests, producer with vim, and young football player who is forever delivers easy-to-take comedy. 7 -~ That's the reception charming hostessess give thoug* ful guests who bring gifts of delicious van Duyn Tandies.

Duy# CHOCOLATES “Uan VAN DUYN CHOCOLATE SHOPS Darnell, playing her age, is more impressive — and luscious — than ever. Greenwood’s return to films is welcome, especially when she sings, and Mary Healy delivers a couple of blues tunes punchily. “FLORIAN.” nova, Reginald Owen, Florian, Robert Young, Helen Gilbert, Irina 'Baro- When those Lippizans (white horses of the old Austrian im- perial stables) are on the screen, “Florian” is a marvelous pic- ture—a thing of beauty and grace. Florian himselg (he's the horsey hero) is worth the tedium involved in following a trite yarn of courtly intrigue-and rorhance—the devoted groom hope- lessly in love—with the pretty duchess who must marry the nobleman who has an affair with the ballerina. + After the war (No. 1), horse and girl and boy are separated. Boy crosses the ocean in search of his horse, finally saves him in the familiar nick from the glue factory. At this point, the girl shows up, rather startlingly, if you have forgotten there ever was a girl, which gives you an idea what Florian was up against in his first starring picture. For sorry dialogue, for phoney plot and for the most beautiful horse sequences ever filmed, “Flor- ian” is a stand-out. “BEYOND TOMORROW.” Harry Carey, C. Aubrey Smith, Charles Winninger, Maria Ouspenskaya, Helen Vinson, Richard Carlson, Jean Parker. Produced by a fine cameraman, Lee Garmes, this one is pho- tographically impressive—and otherwise it’s as slow, involved and trite a piece of supernatural cheese as you could hope to avoid. Three old men befriend a young couple, and they stick around “after dying in a plane crash to see that the children’s tangled love affair gets straightened out. The banal situation (success turns the boy's head from the one true girl) is helped neither by the tiresome dialogues of the watchful “ghosts,” nor by the general excellent performances.
