Russia’s History Inspires
A Spectacular Photoplay
‘Alexander Nevsky,’ at the Little,
Is Dramatic Entertainment
In Best Eisenstein Manner
By JAY CARMODY.
America's past is not the only one that is rich In inspiring motion
picture material. Any notion to that effect which may have been devel
oped by the wave of historical drama which has inundated the country
in recent months can be thoroughly dispelled at the Little Theater this
week. There, with characteristic majesty and vividness, Russia’s Sergei
Eisenstein unfolds the story of "Alexander Nevsky,” a spectacular lesson
in medieval nistory taugnt Dy ones
of the cinema's great masters. If
It is propaganda, which it undoubt
edly is. it is more in the nationalistic
than Communist vein, but more
important is the fact that it is excel
lent entertainment in the best
Eisenstein manner. There is no
better manner in the opinion of the
most scholarly analysists of direc
torial artistry.
Alexander was a great ahd color
ful figure in the 13th century, when
knighthood was in flower, and great
sprawling Russia was the object of
the cruel, greedy Germans on the
west and the cunning, acquisitive
Mongols on the east. Russia needed
a hero then and found him in the
brave, handsome Prince Alexander.
He makes just as majestic and sen
sational a hero in Eisenstein’s pic
ture in 1939. especially as played by
Nikolai Cherkassov, “honored ar
tist of the U. S. S. R.” Whatever
their political beliefs or antipathies,
women moviegoers will find M.
Cherkassov transcending their
dreams of what knights must have
looked like.
The Eisenstein method is the same
as that which made “Potemkin” a
sensational film over a 10-year pe
riod. It makes a minimum use of
dialogue, goes in for the most spec
tacular pictorial effects. In this
particular case, the climax is found
in the battle between the maraud
ing German forces and the Russian
peasants, the most titantic conflict
between medieval armies ever
brought to the screen. Much of
Eisenstein's great fame as a picture
maker is built upon his skill in the
employment of masses of actors, but
his reproduction of the battle of
Lake Peipus is perhaps the best
thing he ever has done in this re
spect.
“Alexander Nevsky” is the story
of a warrior, but it is not without its
touches of romance and comedy,
although neither of them have been
allowed to get in the way of the
major theme of Russia's first great
battle for freedom.
A splendid musical score helps
Eisenstein's picture to attain its
lofty place as one of the finest bits

As a war correspondent covering
hostilities between Warner Bros, and
Walter Wanger over whether Ann
Sheridan shall be an oomph girl
or no, this department is com
pelled today to report that the
former has brought up reinforce
ments in the form of Eastern tele
vision engineers. With a fine dis
dain for the Wanger effort to de
oomph Miss Sheridan, the tele
vision battalion has created a new
title for the Texas girl. To them
she will henceforth be known as
the “televoomph girl.”
A televoomph girl, in case the
meaning is obscure, is defined by
the creators of the word as “the
movie star perfect for television
because she may be televised ef
fectively from all angles.”
Funny thing—well, then, another
funny thing—about the whole situ
ation is that when the title was
conferred upon her there were a
lot of angles from which Miss
Sheridan could not be televised ef
fectively. She was wearing a plaster
cast, a sling and blinking a black
eye, the result of her work in an
other one of those prison pictures.
* * * *
According to this department’s
espionage division, Andy Hardy bu
reau, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer is right
about Miss Helen Gilbert, who pops
up as the love interest in “Andy
Hardy Gets Spring Fever.” .. . From
now on, the man says, Miss Gilbert
can forget her cello lessons, the
ones that landed her a place in an
orchestra and brought her to the
attention of studio officials. . . .
From Hardie Meakin a wire, to wit:
"We are opening with Ginger Rog
ers in ‘Bachelor Mother’ Thursday
night at 6 p.m. If you so advise
your readers ’twill be appreciated.”
• . . So, Mr. Meakin, appreciate.
. . . The Roxyettes have another
dance surprise for their practically
universal public. ... Of all the
dances they have done at the Earle,
and that's virtually an infinite va
riety, they never got around to the
hula. . . But that will be taken
care of on Friday.... It is the native
Hawaiian hula, none of your Ameri
can corruptions of the dance. . . .
The cast of “Irene,” Capitol's musi
cal starting Friday, arrived here to
day to put the finishing touches on
rehearsals, which began some time
ago in New York. ... A new dance,
the “back to back,” will be a tea
ture of "Second Fiddle.” which
opens at the Capitol Friday.
ENLIVENS A REVIVAL—Eunice Healey, ballet and tap dancing
star, will have one of the leading roles in “Irene,” winner of a
recent popularity poll at the theater, when the musical comedy
is revived on the Capitol stage starting Friday.
Gypsy Chorus Sings
To Capacity Audience
The return of the Gypsy Chorus
to the Sylvan Theater last night
drew a large crowd of music lovers,
as in the past years. Practically
every available reserved seat was
filled, with many reclining on the
slopes of the Monument Grounds.
In the cool of the evening, under
the starless skies, the gypsies made
their entrance singing a gay song,
as has been their custom in the
past, marching in a procession com
posed of men, women and children,
headed by a gypsy wagon and a
big, shaggy dog. And as the gypsies
came up the steps to take posses
sion of the stage, they broke into
colorful groups, between two tents
placed at points of vantage, a
grouping so natural as to always
create the illusion of gypsy camp
life.
But it was the acting and the
singing of certain numbers that
formed the keynote of the enter
tainment which El Capitan Robert
Frederick Freund prepared for his
audience. Of the solos, his rendition
of the "Ave Maria” by Schubert
may be well termed the climax of
the evening. Yet there were other
numbers which found favor with
the audience, such as the accordion
solo by Sylvia Kaplowitz and her
duet with Mr. Freund, who seconded
her also In her bit of clever acting,
and those by Erma Calvert and
Mr. Freund, Ann Evans and Everett
Palmer. Another operatic number
featured Beatrice Holland in
Bizet's "Carmen'’ and Mr. Palmer
in an aria from Flotow s "Martha.”
John Wilson, bass, scored in the
“Cry of the Exile” by Ward Evans
and in the Leoncavallos "Mat
tinata.”
The dancing of Poppy Callahan
enlivened the action which on the
whole lagged at times. While
Liszt's "Liebestraum” was not a
wise choice, "La Paloma” and
"Dark Eyes” were sung by the
chorus effectively, with obbligatos
supplied by George Perkins and
Geraldine Thompson, violinists,
heard in a duet earlier in the eve
ning. Myrtle Alcorn was the effi
cient accompanist and contributed
to the enjoyment of the perform
ance. E. de S.
Now a Vacation
Edward G. Robinson has com
pleted his starring role in M-G-Ms
“Blackmail” and is preparing for
a vacation abroad. He sails on the
Normandie August 2. Taking no
chances on being trapped in a pos
sible war, Robinson says he has ar
ranged to have an airplane wait
ing at all times to take him and his
family to a neutral port should
hostilities break out.
Mr. Van Dyke Has a Bad Day
On ’Another Thin Man’ Set
He Grumbles About Both the Script
And Living at the Beach;
Mr. Muni Goes British
By SHEILAH GRAHAM.
HOLLYWOOD.
“Another Thin Man” . . . The big news on this set is William Powell's
return to picture making after two years of illness. "How do you feel?”
I—and every visitor to the set—ask. “Swell outside, a little tired inside,
and I'll be able to answer your question better in a few weeks,” replies
Bill. He looks fine, fatter in the face, and the only reminder of his major
illness is a little tiredness around his eyes.
“I’ve been chasing the Thin Man mentally all the time I’ve been
away,” says Bill, who, in spite of
Director Van Dyke's apprehension
concerning the script of the present
opus, believes
that this one
will equal its
two predeces
sors. "Those two
‘Thin Mans’ have
grown into a
legend. Every
one now thinks
they were better
than they were.”
Well, they were
pretty good at
that.
The first "Thin
Man,” made in
1934 as a "B,''
released in 1935
Sheilah Graham.
as an A, took 14 days to make,
cost $300,000, and grossed $5,000,000.
The current “Thin Man” has an
expenditure of $300,000 for script
alone, with a schedule of 32 days.
This is how the picture opens.
You will see a drawing room in a
train. A bag marked “Mr. Nick
Charles" falls down, followed by
a bag marked “Mrs. Nick Charles.”
Then comes a tiny bag marked
“Nick Charles, Jr." Then a rubber
fire hydrant marked “Asta” (the
dog). Cute?
Myrna Loy, Mrs. Thin Man, who
grabbed herself a European vaca
tion between pictures, tells me.
"There was less war tension in
Europe than here—but it's good to
be back.”
Director Woody Van Dyke stops
grumbling for a second about his
script—“I’m planning my retakes
already”—to tell me he has made
an average of three pictures a year
for the past 13 years. (I thought
it was more.) Woody has taken a
beach house for the summer, but
tells me he loathes the beach. (This
is Van Dyke's bad day.) I ask him
why. "Too many horizons,” he says.
”1 hate horizons—had to look at too
many.”

“We Are Not Alone.” , . . Paul
Muni is smoking a pipe between
takes—to keep in the character of
an Englishman. He will not talk
to any one but the English people
on the set (this does not always in
clude English reporters). He dis

cusses the story with English Au
thor James Hilton. He discusses his
role with English Actress Flora
Robson. He discusses the action
with English Director Edmund
Goulding. He talks with the little
English boy who portrays Muni’s
son. <1 bet he’s warning the mop
pet against picture stealing.) It
is hard to recognize Muni. He
wears no makeup, except for a
broomlike mustache.
The last time Miss Robson came
to Hollywood (for “Wuthering
Heights") she created history by
renting a tiny apartment for $50
a month. She has now gone one
bettor—“Now I have only one room.
That’s all I need,” she tells me.

"Eternally Yours.’’ . . . One hun
dred fifty delegates to the American
thoracic surgeons’ convention are
watching Loretta Young do her part
of a disappearing act with Magician
David Niven. There are six takes
of the scene, in which Loretta has
to be carried by Niven. “This is :
easy work,” says Niven. “Six times
of carrying Loretta is only 600
pounds all told. I had to carry 2
tons of Merle Oberon in ‘Wuther
ing Heights.’” (Divide Merle's
weight into 2 tons and you’ll get
how many times she was carried by
her ex-fiance.)
