From the THE SUNDAY Front Row Reviews and News of Washington's Theaters. “Way Out West” Not So Good for Haines. AM HAINES, the moon - faced comedian, whose antics have kept the theatergoing world in laughter for several yeare, comes to Washington this week in a new type of vehicle for him, one in which he attempts to play a n.ore serious role, “Way Out West.” It is this week's offering at Loew's Palace. The movie magnates and directors succeeded something the heavy role to play. He fails utterly to portray the more serious part he largely and past screen reputation are against him. There are good laughs in the picture, but Cliff Edwards, better known as “Ukulele Ike,” -and Polly Miran, a. riot in almost any part she tries, supply them. For once, Haines is miscast and the picture shows it. He is good for a few laughs, but his reputation suffers. Leila Hyams, co-starring with him, enacts the part of the rancher’s daughter, she has fallen in love with the circus barker and gambler, who has been dragged to the ranch be- cause of cheating on the boys of the Bar-O. Bar-X, or whatever brand of ranch it may have been. She does her bit well, and takes the first spot from Haines. Francis X. Bushman, jr, again the counter of the leading man, acts as a foil to the circus barker, and makes life miserable for him. Haines, going under the pseudonym of Windy, finds it tough sledding, but like all good movie heroes, he comes through in the final few -feet of film, knocking out the jealous Steve (Bushman) and saving the girl's life in a mad race to reach the doc- tor after she has been bitten by a rattlesnake. Of course, there is the thrilling battle against the desert storm, the mistake of the boys of the ranch, who try to kill the hero, etc,, but the picture staggers through to the pro- verbial happy ending. Fred Waring and his Pennsyl- vanians are the stage show, and a great one it proves to bs. Waring's reputation is too well known to go into in detail, and he lives up to all of it. Charles Anderson, the com- poser and song writer, makes a hit with his piano solo, and it stands out, indeed, the whole program being so well balanced that no one takes the one big spot. The newsreel, Dick Leibert at the console, and short subjects round out the bill. D. J. K. Fred Waring. ‘Wonderful News Of Joe Cook, From Keith'’s. IN the words of the great god barker: “Come one—come all to R-K-O Keith’s this week, and see Joe Cook perform wonders in ‘Rain or Shine!’” . ‘Without question no more amus- ing picture has come our way in a long, long time. Not only is Mr. Cook a literal one-man circus, but he has incorporated into his first film enough laugh material to keep one busy for weeks. Surrounded by a cast that is in most cases nearly up to the stand- ard set by the chief performer, and further bolstered by excellent pho- tography and a genuine circus at- mosphere, “Rain or :Shine” is one of those things that one wishes there might be more of. Yester- day’s audience emerged from theater limp from lsughter, pozsibly wondered w% a comedian as talented as Mr. hadn’t been seen on the screen before. Those who remember the star in the stage musical comedy in which originated most of his present “gags” will no doubt remember also that he was considerably helped by two gentlemen, Tom Howard and Dave Chasen. These two seem to wn in comic stature in their . They add great things to a film that, boasting only the slenderest plot, keeps one continually amused. 2 Some of the to watch for in this circus laugh comedy are: The fat lady being pushed into her tent by an elephant; Joe Cook in- veigling a man into becoming a partner in the business; the dinner that takes place in a so-called soclety country club, and Joe Cook’s now immortal contraption, or rather engine to describe which would be as futile as it would have been for anybody but Cook to have in- vented it. The story is far from being the nucleus of this film. The entire foundation of its success are the three chief comedians, Cook, How- ard and Chasen, and sometimes it appears almost as if Mr. Howard might be stealing the show. The theme doesn't matter. These three amazing provokers of laughs are around most of the time. And, in- cidentally, as a “parting shot,” this is the kind of a film the whole family will want to see. Hats off to Frank Capra, who di- rected it with the insight of a magician! Freddy Clark's impassioned R-K- Olians and supplementary features complete a splendid program. —E. de S. M.
