HOLLYWOOD, Cal, June 25.—“FOUR SONS.” Screen- play by John Howard Lawsen from I A. R. Wyle story. Di- rected by Archie Mayo. Principals: Don Ameche, Eugenie Beth Hughes, Alan Curtis. George Ernest. Robert Lowery, Lionel Royce, Sig Rumann, Ludwig Stossel, Christian Rub. The new “Four Sons” uses only the title of the old silent film suce Today's picture is an illumination of tragic pages from recent hist the Munich pact, the cession of the Sudeten- land, the conquest of Czechoslovakia, the invasion of Poland—as that history affected one family The Bernles are Czechs of German blood. Their father died in the first World War. They live in the Sudetenland, just across the border from bayonet-bristling Germany. Frau Bernle -has four sons. Chris (Ameche) is a loyal Czech; Karl (Curtis) has joined the Nazis, first secretly then openly; Joseph (Lowery), an artist, goes to America for a career; Fritz (Ernest) is the youngest. Sweetheart of Chris is Anna (Hughes). First break in the family comes when Anna and Karl discover love. This is patched when big-hearted Chris forgives, and marriage ensues. But the political quarrel between the brothers, like the history that fosters it, marches on exorably. Frau Bernle (Leontovich) is all mother, her great coneern her children. History (or you may prefer to call it Hitler) takes three of them from her, leaves her finally with a new Iron Cross and a ticket to America, where with Joseph she may hope to find peaec again. The power of “Four Sons” springs from its integrity as relentless drama, from the skill with which writer and director have pointed their climaxes, employing word and expression and an exceptionally forceful camera to artful erfect; There is no PERCY’S CAFE OPEN ALL NIGHT : ° sTOP Dinners or Light Lunches at PERCY'S ANY TIME for that all Juneau is talking about. TRY OUR FOUN- TAIN, TOO! maudlin straining for audience tears. Leontovich makes a screen debut which places her among the stars. Only rarely does her long stage training betray itself in touches of theatricalism. Mary Beth Hughes makes a big for recognition as Hitler-happy Anna. “SUSAN AND GOLD.” Screenplay by Anita Loos from Rachel Crothers play. Directed by George Cukor. Principals: Joan Crawford, Fredric March, Ruth Hussey, John Carroll, Rita Hayworth, Nigel Bruee, Bruce Cabot, Rose Hobart, Con- stanee Collier, Rita Quigley, Marjorie Main. More power to Crawford for this daring (for her) excursion into the strange field of comedy. A: -eatterbraine@ Susan. who makes a new religion her hobby and infliets it upon her fiicuds, but neglects to apply it to herself until almost too late, Joan is , surprisingly successful. She'’s good, too, in the serious emotional ¢ scenes. £ “Susan and Gold” is talky, as you would expeet, and it’s too long for comfort, but it is bolstered by an excellent theme : and excellent acting—particularly by March as the estranged " husband who finally tames Susan; by Hussey as the likeable “other woman”; by Quigley as the neglected child, and by Craw- ford. Miss Main reliably supplies more than her quota of laughs; which abound through the unreeling. “BROTHER ORCHID.” Edward G. Robinson, Ann Soth- ern, Humphrey Bogart, Donald Crisp, Ralph Bellamy. A racket chieftain with a yen for “class” leaves the gang for a spending spee abroad. He returns broke, tries to take up where he left off, but is taken for a ride, instead. The picture * rises from average gang comedy stuff; the “class-yearner” takes refuge in monastery and—incredibly—finds regeneration. ; Spottily amusing. A
