The picture has Ronald Colman |and Greer Garson teamed for the first time in a pair of characteriza- tions sure to win added laurels to those already bestowed on these two for their fine performances in past hits. Not since “Lost Horizon” |has Ronald Colman had a role as fine as this one; indeed, many are likely to proclaim it his best. | Greer Garson, on the other hand, scored so strongly in “Mrs. Miniver” that to excel that portrayal would be no easy task; but it equals it and strengthens the already strong foundation of a remarkable screen talent. The story concerns Colman, a shell-shocked victim of World War 1, who escapes from an asylum in England. He is suffering from amnesia. Greer Garson meets him, learns his plight, and takes care of | him. While seeking a job in Liver- e e —————————— pool, Colman is hit by an auto, his memory returns up to the point where he met Miss Garson. There- upon he returns to his old way of figure. A series of exciting events finall¥ clear up the situation. Supporting players include Philip and Reginald Owen. ‘Random Harvest” was directed by Mervyn LeRoy. DOUGLAS NEWS WEATHER REPORT . - (U. S.
