We'll see strange sights and we won't get anywhere. Hope you're not seasick though the water is calm. The water below doesn’'t make any difference, boat is on rollers. Water “on the walls” doesn't make any dif- ference, either, because it's just an effeet — and so natural you could dive in and almost feel the wetness. “The Sea Wolf"” is al- ready an improvement in this respect over ‘“The Sea Hawk,” picture which first used the new cellophane “horizon.” You're not crazy. That fellow in hipboots walking in the ccean below is just sweeping the waves. He's scooping up cigarette butts, bottle tops, and assorted flotsam from the waves. And that fellow at the Ghost’s wheel isn’t crazy either. Sure, he’s not sailing the Ghost anywhere, but he’s doing “his individual hour’s cruise and hear strange things, because the boat is rolling — even because the really business,” as Director (Skipper) Michael Curtiz has instructed everybody to do. . The movie skipper, old Wolf Larsen (Edward G. Robinson), having a bit of a verbal scrap with a rebellious youngster fished from the sea (Alexander Knox). But that needn't concern us any more than it concerns a lot of other people on deck who are doing strange things. Like the fellow named Jimmy who is keeping the smoke coming from the tin smokestacks of the cabin behind Wolf Lar-- ERCY’S CAFE STOP AT PEBCY'S CAFE Breakfast, Dinner or Light Lunches e DELICIOUS FOOD ® FOUNTAIN SERVICE © REFRESHMENTS sen. “Keep the smoke coming, Jimmy,” somebady tells him, and how Jimmy does keep it coming! Like the three fellows who stand offside and gently wave their tin cans, This is a sea picture, and what’s a sea picture without fog? And what's a sea picture without a breezé, to waft the fog into the scene? The breeze is there because three other fellows, on platforms out in the water, are attending to gently turning fans. Like the gent in the vest, with the natty Van Dyke, who steps out from time to time and sprays oil on Robinson’s face and Knox's face, to make 'em look sweaty. «“Make-up,” they call him. Like the fellow who takes a hose and sprays a fine stream over the ship — because a ship ought to be wet, shouldn’t it ? Like John Garfield, who shows up with a mild bt_am'd and has to go.back for a half-shave because the stubble is too stubby for the time lapse since he last appeared. And then there's Skipper Mike, who's responsible for the cychronization of all these technical efforts. Mike is always pulling Curtizisms like “When he calls you a' thief, ym._l BLUR up.” Mike, after takes have blurred up, calls for another. “Better we do not.now than at the preview,” he says sagely, which is no Curtizism but serené wisdam. i .
