AMU SEMENTS. Capital to See Epochal Film at Popular Prices “Captains Courageous’ Show List Will Bring It Here Within Next Two Weeks—Film Singers Are Sad. By Jay Carmody. OLLYWOOD, it seems, has bee with the distinction of its art. H quality. A road show picture, it seems a dirty shame not to sell usual prices. Road showing a picture, for all the sound of that opening paragraph, s not a thing of which sympatheticg— followers of the cinema disapprove. | Producers have a right to give their | favorite and most expensive films a | ride with the carriage trade if they | see fit. This department has been | willing always to concede that, save | on one occasion. That was when it| began to look as if “Captains Cour-! ageous” would never get to Wash- | ington—at least not until next Au-| tumn. Ever since it was screened | here at a pair of semi-private affairs, | it seemed to be too good a picture | to be kept out of town because of | obstacles to road showing it during | the warmer months. | Without even knowing how we felt about it, M-G-M has fixed all that. | After exhibiting the picture in sev- eral other large centers of popula- tion at luxury prices (which it was worth), it has finally decided to bring it here at no increase over the usual rates. It opens at the Palace | on June 18, which gives Washington movie enthusiasts a break they would not have had had Summer here been more like that on the rock-bound coast of Maine. IT IS difficult to say just where| “Captains Courageous” will end up on the 10 best films of 1937. Some of the more astute observers of the cinema cannot see how it possibly can be lower than first. Surely they | know all about “The Good Earth, “Lost Horlzon” and still others yet | to come before December brings the | first snow and all the usual traffic | complications. But they still get| starry-eyed about the deep, poignant- | ly dramatic film transcription of the | Kipling story which you call “hokum” if you like to regard yourself as a brittle person That M-G-M finally decided not to bother road showing the picture here looks like one of the better pieces of | luck the National Capital has had in an entertainment way this season. SINGERS may stand on their own feet before sound cameras these days, but they do not always de- pend upon their own vocal chords. ‘That they do not has generated quite & volume of dugeon (high, of course) among those whose notes spring from their own equipment. Hollywood's next organiZation as a result may be & crooners’ union, formed for the avowed purpose of keeping, say, Jimmy | Cagney, from singing with the voice of, say, Richard Crooks. So far @s any one knows, there is not the slightest likelihood that either Crooks | or Cagney ever would be involved in | such an arrangement.

As a matter of fact, there is a spe- cific situation at the moment which Is responsible for the agitation for a better deal for real singers. Reliable reports have it that one of the current vocal sensations of the screen sang not a single one of those dulcet notes which have torn the hearts right out of audiences. Instead, he merely finest voices made the music. TECHNICALLY, it is a simple trick; the one known as “dubbing in” one voice for another. It was done, if crudely, in the early days of the sound picture. It is done now with | such finesse that even the supposed | singer and his phantom voice are| | fooled by the genius of the camera. | Why should singers be worried about | it? | Well, let's take a chap like Phil} Regan, for example. Mr. Regan, say, | gets wind of a role which requires | an actor who also can sing. He puts in a bid for it. “We've given the part to Joe Doakes,” the casting director tells Re- n. “But he can't sing,” the latter pro- tests. “Why should he? the voice of Caruso.” That would leave Regan out in the cold (although that weather would be very unseasonable in Southern California). And it would leave a lot of other singing players in the same spot. One voice could be a couple of dozen actors; Popeye this week, Donald Duck the next and Akim Tam- | iroff after that. We'll just dub in X’OU may not know it, and may not | even care to know it, but Nelson | Eddy was a voice on the screen before | he was a physique on it. After Eddy was brought to Holly- | wood because he had a voice, there Was a conviction that he was no great shakes as an actor. He was getting his pay and a good sun tan for a long time before he lent his vocal | talent to a picture featuring some one | who needed a good singing voice badly. The feeling got abroad that, actor or no actor (the point still re- mains uncertain in many minds), Eddy | should be in pictures. As every one | | himself from the wings right into the middle of the camera lens. Singers feel that is where singers should be. And they don't approve of this business of a studio hiring a voice and letting it sing for every one on the company’s pay roll. It sounds pretty sane at that. ]'Evans-Gielgud Ciash Shown Among Critics By Richard W atts, jr. HERE is no pleasing the English. defects that we shyly and hesitatingly find in their plays, their actors or their political ideals, they are pretty sure to snarl contemptuously at our upstart presumptuousness. You can hardly expect a people, eaptious nature. homever, is that we can't even praise them without drawing down their scornful fire. For example, I have felt called upon from time to time to say fairly enthusiastic words about the acting of the English Maurice Evans. I had half suspected that my admiration for Mr. Evans was a fairly handsome gesture of interna- tional amity. Yet, to my consterna- tion, I find that the New York corre- spondent of the London Times, in- stead of complimenting me for my sapience and amiability, has only con- tempt for my enthusiasm, calling | my praise “excessive” and my tem- perament “excitable.” | Permit me to quote from his dig- nified but biting remarks. After pro- claiming that in their attitude to- ward Mr. Evans' portrayal of King Richard II “the more excitable critics disregarded all bounds,” he says gent- ly that this observer “led the ex- clamations, avowing on the morning after the opening that Mr. Evans was now beyond doubt ‘the leading actor of the English-speaking stage.’ This same enthusiast, after thinking | matters over for a week or so and indulging in mathematical calcula- tions of some obscurity, came forth with the determination that Mr. Evans was worth exactly six of Mr. John Gielgud as a Shakespearean actor. It is the correspondent’s be- lief that it is our lack of familiarity with the play which made us so over- rate the star's performance in it, and he concludes: “Mr. Evans is cer- tainly a brilliant and versatile actor and his Richard is memorably per- formed; for the rest, it may be a good thing to wait at least until he has done Hamlet in New York. It may be we shall then find him worth only five of Mr. Gielgud.” I'I‘ STILL is my contention that six is the proper number, and I in- sist onvit, even without seeing Mr. Evans play Hamlet. Before going into that, however, it might be the polite thing, internationally speaking, for me to express my sorrow that in praising one English actor I had to TONITE and every nite! 8:45 teamer POTOMAC Delightful 3-hour cruise! usic by Bernie Jarboe's ) 3 Swing Band ‘of Wash- ton.

No insult to the empire was intended, and I think I| should receive a bit of mercy for con- | ceding that it was a struggle between two British players for the title of most distinguished English-speaking thespian. But when it comes to Mr. Gielgud there possibly is a bit of the jingo about me. For example, I still think that John Barrymore was a far finer Hamlet than Mr. Gielgud, and I would bet on Burgess Meredith in the role against Mr. Gielgud, not in four years' time, but right now. Granted that the Englishman was a brilliant Hamlet and that he reached moments of remarkable impressive- it still is my belief that he is too uneven in his work, too lacking in eloguence and too given to mo- ments wherein he substitutes a per- sonal hysteria for dramatic power to be a completely satisfying actor. It is because Mr. Evans combines elo- quence with thoughtfulness in his Shakespearian playing, while Mr. Gielgud invariably sacrifices one of the two qualities in the interest of ing Evans as the better actor. T IS obviously true that people who have seen an actor perform the the same role on different nights should really not argue about a por- trayal, because it can vary so from time to time. Clearly Gielgud was better at some performances than at others, and the same is true of Evans, for ‘only in a motion picture does a portrayal remain constant, and even there the projection machine or the microphone may make for shocking differences. But Gielgud, despite his intelligent approach to his role, is es- sentially an hysterical actor, which means that his portrayals vary more greatly than do those of Evans, whose carefully thought-out playing remains on something of a level. Thus there may have been moments in certain performances when Gielgud reached heights equal to or greater than those of his rival, but such moments were GREET 7. 4 X . % LN o //// . 7 /////// . % W s % SPENCER TRACY, Who has been called by Director W.

Van Dyke “the best actor in Hollywood.” will soon be seen on F street in his latest screen characterization, one of the leading roles in “Captains Courage- ous.” The picturization of the Kipling yarn is scheduled for early showing at Loew'’s Palace Theater. rare and far apart. It is my belief, too, that, while a certain number of | individual mannerisms are necessary | for a distinguished actor and make the difference between a personality worth watching and a colorless one, it is possible for an actor to have so many of them that they tend to stand between him and a role. I suspect Mr. Gielgud of having just a few too many of these mannerisms, while Mr. Evans has just enough of them to make for interest, but not for distraction of at- tention from the playwright's purpose. IT IS, by the way, impossible for me to imagine Evans giving as bad a performance in anything as I once saw Gielgud give in London. It was in a play called “Musical Chairs,” which | was heralded by the English reviewers with vast enthusiasm and was pro- claimed by Mr. James Agate the great- est first play by an English playwright in 40 years. It is my incidental sus- picion that in his statement Mr. Agate went into ecstasies that make my ¢om- parison with six Gielguds seem the most modest of declarations. His was, in fact, a proclamation somewhat equivalent to & belief that Lionel At- will, was worth six Maurice Evanses. For “Musical Chairs” was really a pretty dreadful, confused pseudo- Chekovian drama of about the esthetic stature of one of Mr. Vergil Geddes' lesser efforts. Anyway, in it Mr. Giel- gud played an overwrought young man given to piano playing and love mak- ing, and he managed the role with all the dramatisdervor of Jimmy Durante cross-examining himself in “Red, Hot and Blue” I found him less than sensational, t0o, in the dramatization of “The Good Companions,” although he was certainly excellent in Richard of Bordeaux.” It seems to me, how- ever, that in none of these roles was he as good as Mr. Evans in “St. Joan” and “St. Helena,” let alone “King Richard IL"” Madeleine’s Next.

Customs | Talent Scouts Find Stars Galore in Old Blind Spot| Vaudeville Fairly Bristling With Genius Once Passed Up by Those Scouring Earth for New Faces and Tricks. By Robert B. N THE good old days (sic) it was assumed that a vaudeville actor, when he died and went to his [ M. Cohan. to be an especially good comedian or acrobat or juggler or something, the; mortal, worldly side of life was well taken care of by the Keith-Albee cir- | cuit. Thus life on the vaudeville stage | or around the music halls was a thing of beauty and a joy forever, interspersed with negligible intervals of atarvation, traveling salesman’s neurosis, overwork and long, sweet dreams in which the actor was to beat the stuffing out of *“cold” diences with an ax handle. | Today the great question before the | fledgling artist who contemplates s | career in the four-a-day is “Why is | vaudeville?” Not “Wither vaudeville?"” | Just “Why, why be a vaudevill actor? | Where does it get you, and if so, | when? | Every neophyte tap dancer, magi-| | clan, comedian, Japanese nip-up spe- | | cialist and muscle-bound strong man |in this handsome country must ask | himself those questions a thousand times a week.

Since we heard the pros and cons of the situation discussed for | hours on end by people both in and out of show business, it has been possible to arrive at some fairly rep- resentative conclusions about the prob- lem. The smartest of these consists of an iron-bound resolution never to attempt to answer any questions | about vaudeville, as a theory, a prac- tice or a disease. able au- ITHOUT pretending to enunciate any maxims, however, one might point out that one of the most fasci- | nating things about a good vaudeville performer’s life in our times is the | complete uncertainty, the totally daft | | illogicality of his career. Aside from the moderately sure bet that he will be “at leisure” for an uncomfortable | portion of each calendar year, the | vaudevillian never knows what comes | next. He may go from town to town | flopping all over one stage after an- other with a sound like a seal dropped from great heights and then find him- self suddenly whisked away to Holly- | wood, great fame and much cash. | For example, jugglers who have been doing exactly the same routine for 15 years, with maybe enough | variations to avoid driving themselves | completely crazy, are snatched up | overnight and acclaimed as the sensa- | tion of the age, the discovery of the eon, the wizard of Oz, the mahout | of mahouts.

Regard also Edgar Bergen, the agreeable, blond young college fellow who started ventriloquism for fun, took it up as a career, stayed at it for years with his pert little dummy “Charlie.” Bergen played vaudeville and more vaudeville, made a few film shorts, was known as a good man at his job, but his name meant little to the general public. Suddenly Bergen and Charlie clicked in a famous New paragrapher who didn't boil and bub- ble about their wonderful act simply | was not in the paragraphing business. | Now everybody who reads the Win- | chellimitators from coast to coast says | “Who?

One is Paul Draper, the dancer, who atarted hoong because the New York Times did not appre- clate his third-string music reviews and cut them into ribbons, very narrow ribbons. Mr. Draper was & wonderful flop in a couple of places abroad before he had any kind of success at all, and when he returned to his country somehody very quickly found out that he was good. Befors he knew it a clever musical show had made a headliner of him. He tried vaudeville. Maybe you can re- member the first time he came to ‘Washington, not so long ago, an agile, natural dancer, with a routine that left his audience practically gasping with boredom. But he could dance, and he learned to please audiences. Then he made a picture. It was none togq good, and he said so. Now he is rated tops amc:.g supper club entertainers in New York, heing awarded the Grand Palm by the mag- azine Stage in its ratings for 1936-7. Well under 30 years of age, a com- parative novice in show business, he already is in the big-money divisions, probably some day will be rated as one of the great dancers of this generation. | How he got that way in a flash, while others pine at the doors of fame for years, he frankly does not know. It is a source of wonder to him, and, you bet you, an equal source of delight. The second Paul is also a dancer. His name is Paul Haakon. He is as young as Draper, vaulted into the limelight almost as inexplicably, Thor= oughly trained as a ballet artist, he might still have been one of the young men of the chorus had he not ap- peared in a production with Mme, Jeritza. THE third Paul resembles Robert Montgomery, is a wondrous smooth monologuist, skillful on skates, and ingratiating anywhere. His last name is Gerrits. Again it is a pleasure to brag upon the fact that Mr. G. was the subject of enthusiastic eulogies in this department long before people began screaming their heads off about him at the St. Regis in New York this year. But, for that matter, even the films saw and liked Mr. Gerrits before New York caught on. They took him out West for six months and made a series of approximately 106 screen tests (his estimate) to discover why any one who so distinctly resembled Robert Montgomery off-stage did not look at all like him when photo- graphed. After six months the camera= men and producers had arrived at no conclusion whatsoever, so they dropped Mr. Gerrits' option. The next time they want to own it the price prob- ably will be about doubled, but they will never, never complain about pay= ing big money for a “find."” The Year's Most Amazing Mit! Robt.
