THE MAJESTIC | “MILLIONS IN THE AIR" ' Many entertainment celebrities make numerous appearances in the new Paramount screen farce, “Millions in the Air,” which opens to-mor-row at the Majestic. Most of the action in this sprightly film takes place in a radio studio, a duplicate of Radio City's largest broadcasting theatre, and the villain of the story is Ol’ Debbil Gong. The clanging of this sinister object, or its silence, knits together a series of entertaining events that otherwise would be episodic, and serves as background for an appealing romance with Wendy Barrie and John Howard as the principals. Villain Gong—or should we call him King Gong?—is capable of immense cruelty whenever he speaks, can hurl his victims into the gloomy abyss of despond, or by holding his tongue can transport others to realms of ineffable bliss. Let it also be said that he can, when called upon, inspire comedy of a most hilarious nature. “Thundering Herd.” Packed with thrills, romance, death and danger, Zane Grey’s “The Thundering Herd” screens with “Millions; in the Air.” In the amazing Para-1 mount portrayal of Zane Grey’s outstanding epic of the great outdoors, an all-star cast lives through every gripping sequence of the drama. Randolph Scott, Judith Allen, Monte Blue, Harry Carey, Noah Beery, Buster Crabbe, Raymond Hatton and Blanche Friderici are directed by Henry Hathaway in this stirring Western thriller.
