FILM PROGRAMMES REVIEWED.

"MORE THAN A SECRETARY." RECJEXT.

E*!*? 1 ,**" ldwin ■ Jean Arthur. *red (Albert Ueorge Brent. Ernest T Lionel Stander. S e ,, en ,, Davis Ruth Donnelly. BUI Houston Reginald Denny. Mmssie West l>t>rothea Kent. Director: Al Green. Columbia. The headliner on the new programme at the Regent Theatre is a comedyromance, "More Than a Secretary," a light, gay picture without much of a plot but abounding in racy dialogue. Emphasis is on comedy situations and a veritable banquet of frolicsome fun—Bo minutes of it—is served up for the enjoyment of any type of audience. If there is a story— and nobody who sees the film cares whether there is one or not —it has to do with the relations of a secretary to her employer. Jean Arthur plays the secretary, Carol Baldwin, co-partner with Helen Davis (Ruth Donnelly) in a secretarial school which they operate. She is annoyed when Fred Gilbert (George Brent), editor of "Body and Brain," a health magazine, complains about the incompetence of several secretaries sent him from the school. So she decides to take the position herself. Then the fun starts. The editor lives just as he preaches, by exercising the whole staff and making them eat bran cakes and other health food and keeping away from nightlife. After being made associate editor, Carol finds that her health-crazed employer has fallen in love with a "nit-wit" secretary who wastes all his time. Resenting hie actions- and annoyed because he leaves her to do all the work, she goes away with her copartner on a cross-country tour in a trailer. Following an appeal to her to return, made through the magazine which she made popular, she does so and accepts his marriage proposal.

In this lively picture Dorothea Kent, as the "nit-wit" blonde secretary, is delightfully mirth-provoking, while' Reginald Denny and Lionel Stander are all competent foils for the main characters.

A good supporting programme includes two gazettes depicting current world happenings of interest, a colour cartoon, another of the popular "Screen Snapshots," and a most amusing comedy, "Free Rent." ST. JAMES' THEATRE. Nelson Eddy's voice, personal charm and acting ability have remained with Auckland cinema-goers unrenewed since "Naughty Marietta" two years ago, until the current presentation of "Rose Marie" at the St. James'. This picturisation of the famous Harbach-Hammerstein musical play ie now entering its second week at the theatre. It woe directed by the famous "Woody" Van Dyke, maker of some of Hollywood's best films, including "Trader Horn," "The Thin Man" and "Wife Versus Secretary." Its producer wae Hunt Stromberg, generally regarded as the successor to the late-lamented Irving Thalberg, Norma Shearer's husband. "Rose Marie" in film form ie different from the play; but no intelligent or reasoned entertainment seeker will be so foolish as to compare the play and film. Essentially differing conditions of production necessitate varying tempos, backgrounds and perspectives, individual and rnaee action, even presentation of the music. This music includes, in the film, the haunting "Indian Love Call." the sighing "Rose Marie, I Love You," the pert "Pardon Me, Madame," the stirring "Song of the Motilities," the thrilling "Totem Pole Dance"—all the Herbert StothartKndoif Friml'ecore, sung ae only Jeanette Mac-Donald and Kelson Eddy can eiag it. SOXY-TIVOLI. "Borderland," latest of the long eeriee of successful Hopalong Caseidy film translations of Clarence E. Mulford'e stories, I"' ie showing to excited audiences currently at the Roxy and Tivoli Theatres, jointly rwith the comedy, "Let'e Make a Million,' in which Edward Everett Horton ie staiied. "Borderland" deals with the efforts of the Texas Rangers and the Mexican secret police to apprehend a desperado whose depredations on both sides of the Rio Grande hove made life dan- : geroua in the sparsely settled country. "Hoppy" is sent into the bandit'e territory as a secret agent for the Rangers. In this secret mission, Caesidy not only succeeds in deceiving the outlaw and trapping him, but to hie own great sorrow he turns his two best friends against him. William Boyd of the blond locks is once more cast as Hopalong, while Jimmy Ellison ie again his romantic pal, Johnny Nelson. George Hayes ie the irrepressible "Windy." "Lets Make a Million," besides ite comedy, will be remembered for its use of the "pixilated Msters," played by Margaret McWade and Margaret Seddon. These two stepped to fam" in similar roles in "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town." and Miss McWade was given yet another part of the same type in "Theodora Goe« Wild." STAR, KARANGAHAPE ROAD.

That outstanding film "San Francisco," after successful seasons in a number of theatres, has returned to the city for a short season at the Star Theatre, Kfirangahape Road. In addition to its glorious melodies, sung by Jeanette MacDonald, there is some fine acting on the part of Clark Gable, Miss Mac Donald and Spencer Tracy. Comedy is provided by Ted Healy. The earthquake scenes are a masterpiece of film trickery. STATE, SYHONDS STREET. W "Anthony Adverse" has arrived at the State Theatre, Symonds Street. The main players are Olivia de Hayilland and Frederic March and the etory is an adaptation of the famous novel by Hervey Allen. In a supporting role ie Gale Sonderguard, playing the part of Faith Paleologue, and her performance won her this year's Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science award for the best supI porting role. Other players in the cast are Louis Hay ward and Anita Louise. NEW REGENT, EPSOM. Shirley Temple in one of her greatest successes, "Dimples," is the main attraction on the programme of the New Regent Theatre, Epsom. Also showing ie "The Texas ' Rangers," with Fred MacMurray and Jean Parker in tha main ■> romantic parts and the popular Jack Oakie lending assistance in a comedy role. ASTOR, DOMINION ROAD. There are a number of polished players in "I Found Stella Parish," now at the Astor Theatre, Dominion Road. The cast includes Kay Francis, lan Hunter, Paul Lukns and the child player, Sybil Jason. Guy Kibbee ami Alma Lloyd are the main players in "The Big Noise," also on the programme. CAPITOL, BALMORAL. Two films of a totally different character are to be presented on the week-end programme of the Capitol Theatre, Balmoral, in "Ramona," a famous love story, and "Early to Bed," a riotous comedy. The plnyers in the first are Loretta Young and Don Ameche. In the second are Charlie Ruggles and Mary Boland. BRITANNIA, PONSONBY. "Heart of the West," another of Clarence E. Mulford's popular Hopalong Caseidy series of Western romances, will be shown to-night at the Britannia Theatre. Ponsonby. William Boyd and Jimmy Ellison are featured. Abo showing is "Girls' Dormitory," with the new star, Simone Simon, Ruth Chatterton and Herbert Marshall. VICTORIA, DEVONPORT. "The Devil is a Sissy," with Freddie Bartholomew, the young star who made his nnme in "David Copperfield," heads the current programme of the Victoria Theatre, Divonport. Also showing is "The Lrg on of Terror," with Bruce Cabot and Marguerite Churchill. GAIETY, TAKAPUNA. 'V' , The Fenimore Cooper etory "The Last I of the Mohicans," now at the Gaiety Theatre, Takapuna, stare Binnie Barnes, jv Randolph Scott, Heather Angel and Phil- ■ j ftp Read. Those who enjoy the perform- >■ ancea of Bruce Cabot will be surprised to jjt; *cv pita in to* role of a, •cheating redskin.

"AREN'T MEN BEASTS?" MAJESTIC. Herbert Holly Robertson Hare. Thomas Potter Alfred Drayton. Koger Holly Billy Milton. Marie June Clyde. Selina Potter Kuth Maitland. The Vamp Ellen Pollock. Mrs. Flower Amy Veness. Also: "The Devil's Playground," a remake of with Richard Dix, Dolores del Rio and Chester Morris. Good British fun throughout, "Aren't Men Beasts?" the main attraction in a well-balanced double programme which opened at the Majestic Theatre yesterday, is sure to appeal to all lovers of farcical comedy. With Robertson Hare and Michael Drayton, who attained to great heights in the stage version, one can well understand why the film with the same players is a success. It is carried along at a fast pace, which is essential in that type of entertainment, and well sustained in the utterly improbable situations by skilful acting by the two principals. The effect is a riotously funny comedy, as the audience, bursting with laughter, found yesterday. One could hardly think that Robertson Hare with his mild and timid ways could be called a beast, but it is really those qualities combined with his innocence which lead him into compromising situations that in the end make him the principal "beast" of all. Cast as a dental surgeon with a negligible practice, he becomes compromised with a foreign lady through no fault of his own, and upsets his son's wedding when he entangles both hie eon (Billy Milton) and the latter's beet man (Michael Drayton) in embarrassing situations. The only clue to the identification of this lady is the knowledge of a mole on her shoulder and the attempts of the trio to catch a glimpse of the shoulders of several suspected ladies provide unlimited scope for amusing and thrilling situations, and of course offer conclusive evidence that men are beasts. Acting honours go to Robertson Hare for a convincing performance of a typical comedy role. June Clyde, Judy Kelly, Billy Milton and Michael Drayton form a strong supporting cast and make the success of the picture assured.

The second feature on the programme, "The Devil's Playground." is a thrilling drama of the United States navy and shows Richard Dix, Chester Morris and Dolores del Rio to the best advantage. Playing an outdoor "masculine" role for which he is so justly famed. Dix gives a virile performance as the champion diver of the American navy who goes to the rescue of the crew of a sunken submarine. Among the crew is Chester Morris, with whom Dix has quarrelled over an innocent flirtation with his wife, Dolores del Rio. PLAZA THEATRE. One of the outstanding features of "Can This Be Dixie?" which is now screening for its second week at the Plaza Theatre and in whcih Jane Withers scores perhaps the greatest success of her successful career, is the lilting music and intriguing lyrics provided by the talented pens of Harry Aket and Sidney Clare. There are four swingy songs all with the tang of the old Southland. These are "Pick, Pick, Pickaninny," "Uncle Tom's Cabin is a Cabaret Now, " "Does You Wanna Go To Heaven?" and "Its Julep Time in Dixieland." Commenting on the trend of modern music, Harrv Akst, who wrote the unforgettable "Dinah." as well as "Am I Blue." both of which contributed largely to the sensational success of Ethel Watere, credits Duke Ellington, famous .orchestra leader, with contributing impressively to what he terms, the "swing revolution." He added: "I think jazz is the American musical tongue and further firmly believe that American jazz operas will some day get the same elaborate etaging that ie now accorded to classic opera." AVONDALE THEATRE. At the Avondale Municipal Theatre the picture programme is headed "by "Small Town Girl," in which Robert Taylor, James Stewart and Janet Gaynor appear. The co-feature ie "The Charm School," with Joe Penner, Frances Langford and Jack Oakie. CRYSTAL PALACE AND RIALTO.

The picture has been described by overseas critics as a masterpiece. STATE, ONEHUNGA. Warner Baxter and June Lang appear I in "White Hunter," the fine drama heading the programme of the State Theatre. Onehunga. The film is one that should prove popular with those who like their entertainment to contain action. "Straight From the Shoulder," with Ralph Bellamy, is also showing. COMMUNITY SINGING. Mrs. John Farrell will be soloist at the community singing to be held in the Town Hall on Wednesday. Humour will be provided by "Scotty" McDougall. A Blockhouse Bay school children's mouthorgan band will also give items. NEW ROYAL, KINGSLAND.

These will be "A Dieh of Tea," "A Dreamland Fantasy" and "Gems of the Eighteenth Century." Costumes, songs and literary extracts have been carefully chosen to give a clear representation of the Georgian era. Box plans are now open at Lewie Eady's. REGAL, PONSONBY ROAD. Victor McLaglen gives a magnificent performance in what is almost an ideal role in "The Magnificent Brute," currently screening at the Regal Theatre, Ponsonby Road. With him is Binnie Barnes. "Rhythm On the Range." with Bing Crosby, Frances Farmer, Bob Burns and Martha Raye, ie also showing. DE LUXE, MOUNT ALBERT. The two main items on the current programme of the De Luxe Theatre, Mount Albert, are "Charge of the Light Brigade," with Errol.Flynn and Olivia de Havilland, and "They Met in a Taxi," with Fay Wray and the virile Chester Morris.

To-night a performance will be given in Onehunga. Later visits will be made to Whangarei and Kawakawa. RIALTO, SUNDAY. Leslie Henson, the well-known English comedian, partnered by Robertson Hare, is the star of "Oh, Daddy," to be presented to-morrow evening at the Rialto Theatre, Newmarket. The second feature is "Her First Affair," with Harry Tate and Ida Lupino.

CIVIC THEATRE. "One of Shirley Temple's best vehicles" should be the verdict of those who have seen "Stowaway," now showing for a second week at the Civic Theatre. This frame for the screen's foremost prodigy hag more novelty, and more popular faces, than usual. Which makes no difference to the Temple "fans"—but helps the others, lhe film is good entertainment. Robert Young and Alice Faye, both stars in their own right, handle the agreeable romance which forms part of a smooth production. Bhirley herself, orphaned waif in China— with suitable backgrounds, a Chinese song, and cute Chinese clothes —smuggles aboard a cruise ship, and becomes involved in the life of a wandering young millionare. Helen Westley, as the world's most disagreeable potential mother-in-law; Arthur Treacher, more or less as himself; and six songs, ranging from the juvenile to the sentimental, decorate the piece. It is idle to talk about improbabilities in a Shirley Temple picture. The divorce court scene at end is • just an example of the studio's magnificent disregard for reality throughout—and its skilful avoidance of offence to any tastes. It treads on thin ice—but in the fashion of a Sonja Henie. Others in the cast are Eugene Pallette, Astrid Allwyn, J. Edward Bromberg, Allan Lane, Robert Greig ond Willie Fung. STAND THEATRE. The Strand Theatre hae scored another eucceee with ''Girl in a Million," which ie now in its fourth week, with undimiehed popularity. Sonja Henie, world's ice-ekat-ing champion, is the star of this great production, and her superb ability ie matched by her charming personality and acting ability. Her ice skating ie marvellous and breathtaking. Now that she has made euch an auspicious debut, ehe should be assured of a successful screen future. Jean Hereholt, Don Ameche, Arline Judge, Ned Sparks and Dixie Dunbar have supporting roles. NATIONAL THEATRE. The spirit of gaiety sparkles brightly throughout "Three Smart Girls," the comedy that has been transferred to the National Theatre after a successful season in the city and suburbs. The film has been called different and it is. Deanna Durbin, Nan Gray and Barbara Read are east as three sisters whose wealthy father, divorced from their mother ten years previously, is reported engaged to a young and famous beauty. They go from Switzerland, where they have been living with their mother, to New York, where their father resides, with plans to prevent his marriage. Also in the cast are Charles Winninger, Alice Brady and Binnie Bnrnee. LONDON, QUEEN STREET.

Four popular players Francis Lederer, Ann Southern, Fred Stone, and Billie Burke, appear in "My American Wife." a bright comedy of "Ruggles of Red Gap" style, now at the Tudor Cinema, Remuera.

Fields and Rochelle Hudson, and "Grand Jury," with Fred Stone, the talented, character actor, and Louie Latimer, are the two films heading the programme of the Strand Theatre, Onehunga. In "Poppy" there ie a riotoue scene in which Fielde displays questionable prowess at croquet. ALEXANDRA, GSEEN LANE. "Under Your Spell," now at the Alexandra Theatre, Green Lane, ie remarkable for the singing of the star,.Lawrence Tibbett.

EMBASSY THEATRE. One of the established giants of the English cinema is co-starred equally with a veritable "bit of a chit of a dark girl" in the absorbing espionage melodrama, "Dark Journey," which is the current feature at the Embassy Theatre. Conrad Veidt is the veteran and Vivien Leigh the newcomer. It goes without saying that Veidt, who has never yet given a bad performance in any of his many dramatic film roles, makes the most of his opportunities in this production and re-establishes his name with Auckland film-goers, if his considerable absence from the local screen had made that at all necessary. Vivien Leigh, however, does more than that. She acts her part admirably and with the over-emphasis which has betrayed several promising young women in her position as stars of the future; she also shows that she is capable of learning her chosen business.In "Fire Over England"—released here only during the past fortnight—she showed faults that have been covered up in "Dark Journey," although this fact may conceivably be attributed to the influence of her English director, Victor Saville. In the earlier film she was directed by the phlegmatic German, Erich Pommer. A successful stage actrese, wife and mother at the age of 24, she appears likely to become one of the really bright lights of filmdom, following the career of Merle Oberon.
