Miss Oberon portrays a sophisti- | cated heiress who races from one| exciting episode to another, the| while she carries a torch for hand- some Rex Harrison, the leading man in the picture. In support of Miss Oberon and Harrison, “Over the Moon" features Louis Borell, Robert Douglas, Ursula Jeans, Zena | Dare, Peter Haddon, Hedbert Lo- mas and David Tree Briefly, the story concerns adventures and romances of s\} Yorkshire girl who inherits several miilion dollars upon the death of her grandfather and proceeds to see how the idle rich live. Her plan is frowned upon by the man fo whom she is engaged and he bows out while she goes on to a life of utter frivelity and gayety in Paris and Monte Carlo. When she en- counters a strange young man who is even richer than she is, she realizes the utter futility of her glittering life and she decides to| go after the man she really loves.| How, she wins him back provid?.\‘ the picture with a smash climax. | - - the Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons | HOLLYWOOD, Cal., April 30— There's a notable change in the Nazi-background films being made in this town. | The new emphasis is on adventure | and suspense. Youll find both in | the two Nazi films now before the | cameras, “Underground” and “Man- Hunt.” “Underground,” directed by Vin- cent Sherman, concerns the work- |ings of the organized, silent op-| position to Hitler within his home grounds. “Man-Hunt” (from the | novel “Rogue Male™) is fiction about |a man who is surprised, while out { “hunting,” with his rifle leveled on the Berchtesgaden recluse. Fritz Lang, who left Germany in 1933 with a suitcase and practically {nothing else to show for his suc- | cessful years as director and pro- ducer, is in charge of “Man-Hunt,” jand the script is by Dudley Nichols —some guarantee in itself of tense and artful business. Movie-goers early in the anti-Nazi craze exhausted the more obvious social implications of the Nazi creed |. . . “The Mortal Storm” most searchingly, with “Four Sons” car- rying on the exploration into broken families and friendships. “The Man I Married” contrasted the American point of view. Films like “Foreign i ture. “Escape,” while again project- ing the American idea, got much of its potency from the oldest movie | thrill device —the chase. “Man-Hunt” is a chase virtually |from start to finish, with romance injected in the person of Joan Bennett. Walted Pidgeon is the hunted Englishman, and George Sanders—a familiar figure to his role—is the Nazi chae-leader. Although the Nazl subjects have made a cjcle, it has<been an odd one. Few other cycles have embraced such a wide range of treatments— from the comedy-of-sorts in Chap- lin's “Dietator” to the mass tragedy in “So Ends Our Night”; from the “documentary” technique of *“Nazi Spy". to the film biography of *Pas- tor Hall”; from the melodrama of “Foreign Correspondent” to the so- ciological exploration of “Mortal Stor! Interesting on the “Underground” set is the presence of a German- born blonde girl of 23, Karen Vernc (not her real name).
