“RAMONA" AGAIN
'THREE new milestones in motion pieture production are established by “Ramona,” the 20th Century-Fox triumph featuring Loretta Young and Don Ameche at the head of an exceptional cast, including Kent Taylor, Pauline Frederick, Jane Darwell, Katherine de Mille and John Carradine. One of the year’s outstanding cinema achievements, “Ramona” sets new standards in the fields of colour, scenic beauty and romance. Produced entirely in the new- perfected technieolour, Director Henry King and Art Director Duncan Cramer handled their pallettes with the greatest of care, and the finished result is the most beautiful and natural colour ever brought to the screen. Scenic beauty is represented by one of the loveliest vistas in the world —the San Jacinto Mountains in California —where the outdoor “shots” were photographed. “Ramona” is by far the most romantic story ever incorporated in a motion picture. Helen Hunt Jackson’s story is recognised as one of the immortal idylls of American literature, and, with Loretta Young in the title role and Don Ameche as Allessandro, the film will long be remembered as one of the screen’s greatest love stories.
