New Picture Takes Cooper
Back to Cowhand Past
‘Cowboy and the Lady,’ at Palace,,
Only Mildly Diverting Comedy
Romance, Despite Stars
By JAY CARMODY.
As a playwright, S. N. Behrman says nothing, or practically nothing,
more beautifully than any other American dramatist. His prose makes,
such pleasant sound that every one forgets how much better it would be
if it made more dramatic sense. That, to be sure, is a nasty thing to be
thinking but when Mr. Berhman does not write with the proper inspira
tion for an actor like Gary Cooper, he is doing wrong by one of the
screen's finest talents. And that ls«
the way Mr. Behrman wrote in "The
Cowboy and the Lady” which opened
yesterday at Loew's Palace.
The lanky, laconic genius on the
pay roll of Samuel Goldwyn, assisted
by Merle Oberon and some compe
tent subordinates, manage to make
the comedy romance mildly divert
ing. But, as everyone knows, "mildly
diverting” constitutes a critical
cliche which should not have to be
applied to a Cooper film bearing the
hallmark of Samuel Goldwyn as
producer. It may be unreasonable,
but one expects more.
The picture takes Mr. Cooper back
to the old cowhand groove from
which he was snatched to stardom.
He is a stalwart son of the range, a
chap who has learned the facts of
life so thoroughly that its fancy side
does not appeal to him. He is so
obviously a fellow of simplicity, sin
certitv, decency and sex appeal that
when the society girl spots him. she
has to lie away her background to
get his attention. Because he likes
women who have the characteristics
of work horses, the kind that will
carry their share of the load, she
tries to be like that. Miss Oberon's
effort to live up to that ideal has
its various humorous and poignant
moments. None of them, however,
are too, too emotionally moving.
The tenser moments of the film, as
well as those embraeing some of its
more delightful off-hand comedy are
those which are left to the talents of
Mr. Cooper. The talent that makes
him the envy of such a splendid
actor as Charles Laughton bobs up
frequently in the action of "The
Cowbodv and the Lady.” He does
a fine job of being a Mr. Deeds in
sombrero and chaps in a passage in
which he is playing house, a bit of
pantomime that covers such things
as making love to his wife, pointing
out to her the beauties of nature in
Montana, and ending up, finally with
a party for his fellow cowhands, all
of whom are thoroughly convinced
V
that he Is cracked. It is a whimsical
touch that gives one a warm feeling
toward the picture for a brief space.
Another good sequence is that in
which Mr. Cooper, having been
tricked into kissing the girl and
never suspecting the treachery and
coquetry, goes back to propose mar
riage. Because the logic of a kiss
does not strike her quite the same
way, Mr. Cooper picks her up and
tosses her in the swimming pool.
No other actor could be quite so ofT
hand when presented with the same
opportunity.
H. C. Potter’s direction in scenes
like this has about it an expert
ness which is missing at other
I points along the route. It does
■ things that it should not upon oc
| casions to the comedy talents of
such people as Patsy Kelly (she’s
! a sylph now), Walter Brennan and
1 various other of the capable people
who earned Goldwyn dollars on
! which to diet.
"The Cowboy and the Lady” is
given the usual glossy Goldwyn pro
duction.
. Most of the background, which
is a bit startling for a picture with
such a title, is the rich girl's rich
home in Palm Beach. It probably is a
reflection of Mr. Berhman's (what’s
he doing here again?) penchant for
drawing rooms. He, of course, never
could be a fellow who would feel
at home on the range.
The few cowboy country shots
which do creep into the picture
are very handsome things, and
there are some reasonably exciting
excerpts from rodeo performances,
i which also increase the sagebrush
i savor of the film.
"The Cowboy and the Lady” is
vividly supplemented by a techni
color style show which ought to
be a very captivating thing for
women and very instructive for
j men who have been wondering what
women are going to look like next.

Frankenstein
Monster Is
Off Again
Keith’s New Film
Has Plenty of
Scary Doings
By HARRY MacARTHUR.
If you are possessed with a yen
to have the daylights scared out of
you. R-K-O Keith’s is the place to
satisfy it. ‘Son of Frankenstein”
packs a goodly supply of chills and
more than once last night brought
frightened little squeals of half
embarrassed terror from inhabitants
of the mezzanine. It does not seem
to be quite the demon as was the
“Frankenstein” of a few years back
that inspired it. but “Son of Fran
kenstein” still is a scary enough item
to appease all, this appetite for
horror that movie audiences have
shown this season.
‘‘Son of Frankenstein” is. strange
as it may seem, the story of the son
of the Baron Frankenstein who
created the monster. From America
come the son, his wife and their
small son to move into the Franken
stein castle they have inherited.
Exploring his laboratory the baron
discovers he has inherited also the
little playmate his father made up
out of some spare parts, a strange,
bewhiskered creature having kept
the monster in a cave in a state of
suspended animation ever since it
was hit by lighting a few years back.
You do not have to be told that the
young Frenkenstein brings the
monster back to life and that it
gets loose, causing numerous com
plications, including frightening us
nigh unto a tantrum a couple of
times.
Basil Rathbone as Frankenstein,
Boris Karloff as the monster, Bela
Lugosi as the hairy fright the
monster obeys and Lionel Atwill as
ihe police inspector of the village
compose a cast well equipped to send
chills up (or down) anybody's spine.
They do here, all right. Mr. Rath
bone and Mr. Atwill especially play
all of this for all it is worth, and
maybe more. And just looking at
Mr. Karloff or Mr. Lugosi, or both, is
enough to send you into the scream
ing meamies. Jpsephine Hutchison
is on hand, too, but she does not
scare anybody, being an exceedingly
attractive note in the middle of this
business. And young Donnie Duna
gan is fine as the lad who innocently
plays with the "giant" who comes
strolling into his nursery.
The point wherein “Son of Frank
enstein” seems to fall down a bit
is its lack of action. There Is
suspense aplenty, all right, but some
times it seems to have been gained)
at the expense of movement. Di
rector Rowland V. Lee (who proved,
incidentally, / in "Love From a
Stranger” that he could whip sus
pense around) has done a fine job
of building it here, but with a touch
of that slow, plodding English man
ner at such things. It just gets tire
some sometimes, or maybe it fs
downright nerve racking to have a
suspenseful moment stretched out
until it pings an E above high C.
Complaints or no complaints, how
ever, “Son of Frankenstein” is guar
anteed to scare you.

Mark Twain s Huckleberry Finn,” in the M-G-M film version
of the famed sequel to ‘‘Tom Sawyer.”
Royal Title Means Nothing
To an Assistant Director
, HOLLYWOOD.
In her native Sarawak, Princess Baba need not lift a finger. Sur
rounded by luxury and servants, her slightest wish is a command.
In Hollywood, however, the princess not only can but does do a great
deal for herself—during working hours. When the sun sinks behind the
Hollywood hills she again ascends to the position she has known all her
life. The film colony, having always looked with awe upon titled per
sonages, entertains in regal style for<
Princess Baba.
Such treatment would be accorded
her 24 hours a day if it weren't for i
the fact that she's ambitious for a
screen career. That places her in a
different category during working
hours. Of course, she still is treated
with the greatest respect. But as- j
sistant directors are a pretty hard
boiled lot who are paid to see that
studio rules and regulations are car- !
ried #ut. And even a princess can’t
make them waver.
Consequently, now that she is
working with W. .C. Fields, Edgar
Bergen and Charlie McCarthy in
| Universal's “You Can't Cheat an
Honest Man,” Princess Baba must
adhere to the same rules as other !
actresses.
If she has a 9 o'clock call, she must
arise at 6 in order to dress, have
breakfast and drive to tlye studio
I from her Santa Monica home by
17:30. S
Immediate upon arriving at the
studio, she reports to the makeup
department where she punches a
| time clock. About 45 minutes are
required to make her up. Then she
spends another 45 minutes having
her hair dressed. Again she punches
a time clock so the studio has an ac
curate record of the time she spends
getting ready for work. There's an
other time clock on the set which
she must punch when she arrives
| and departs so there will be a record
_AMUSEMENTS.
i►—-— -1—
of how long she was actually on the
set.
"I knew exactly what I would have
to do before I signed the contract
for this picture,” the princess de
clares. “And it doesn't bother me
a bit. I want a screen career more
than anything else and I am per
fectly willing to work as hard or as
long as necessary to have It.
“As far as I am concerned, I’d just
as soon forget I am a princess and
be regarded only as an actress. How
ever, I have discovered that it's not
easy to shake a title in Hollywood.
People here are too title conscious.
Perhaps though if I am good enough
in You Can't Cheat an Honest Man’
to establish myself somewhat as an
actress, I can make people think of
me only professionally.”
According to advance reports emi
nating from the studio, it's very pos
sible that the Princess may see her
histrionic achievements overshadow
her family inheritance.
