Murder in 'The Big Clock’
Is a Laughable Pastime
By Joy Carmody
It Is not Impossible that you will enjoy "The Big Clock,” which
opened today at the Palace Theater.
The picture which stars Ray Milland and Charles Laughton has
Some entertaining values. Among these are suspense, comedy, some well
made passages of sacred and profane love, and other qualities useful
for whiling away something less"
than two hours.
Nevertheless, a warning is due po
tential Palace patrons. They should
be advised that the whole thing Is
quite absurd and that. Intentionally
or otherwise, "The Big Clock" is
more a satirical farce than a melo
drama. It is funny Instead of being
exciting and although this may have
been what Paramount had in mind,
It intimates the latter.
“The Big Clock,” based upon Ken
neth Fearing’s novel of the same
name, gives the publishing industry
the kind of going-over that Fred
erick Wakeman had In mind for
radio when he wrote "The Huck
sters.” Its central figure Is a mag
azine tycoon—News ways, Future
ways, Styleways, Crlmeways, all
ways but Sideways—who is mad
with power. Unlike Evan Llewellyn
Evans. Wakeman’s man does not
spit on tables, but he is pure poison
In the body politic and makes
neurotic pulps of the poor devils
Who w'ork for him.
. This fellow, played by Laughton,
Is pitted against Milland in a battle
of good and evil In a wonderfully
cockeyed way, the conflict turns on
which of the two will be tagged for
the murder of a morally sleazy
blond. Hers Is a strange face to
put on the issue of economic royal-,
Ism, but if Paramount wants it that
way—w'ell, It can have it.
The Incredibilities of "The Big
Clock” begin at once. They start
with the picture's principal setting,
a fantastically modernistic building
which stands as a monument to
Earl Janoth’s < Laugh torf) publish
ing empire. The dominant feature
of this startling edifice is a clock.
It tells time not only in New York,
but everywhere, including the Afri
can veldt. Janoth is crazy about
clocks, among a million other ways!
in which he is crazy.
What damage is this fellow going
to do to little people like us?
Well, he is a menace what with
all that money and those chain
fission magazines. The common
man who presumably reads Janoth's |
magazines 24 hours daily is not
without his defender. He is never
allowed to forget that Milland Is
there, an important editor in Jan
oth's setup.
Like Gable in “The Hucksters,” he
knows how to deal with these ruth
less tycoons. He is late for staff
meetings, he is .cleverly uncivil to
the old tyrant, he laughs when the ]
latter threatens to blacklist him
with every magazine In the country.
And, supreme arrogance, Milland
even moves in on the boss' private
girl friend, a loose beauty with
whom the handsome young editor
drinks green stingers.
Everybody, of course, is beautifully
dressed, but this is the stuff of raw
conflict. Director John Farrow sees
that it is played to the hilt.
* * * *
Milland's role In “The Big Clock”
Is as lively as such things get. As
a sort of alcoholic throw-back to
the hero of "Lost Week End,” he.
contrives a comedy portrait that is
not lost even in the most excited
passages of the Palace screen play.
The latter, incidentally, revolve
around the tycoon’s effort to pin
his blond friend's murder on some
body else, anybody else. Fearing's
original story was constructed in
such a fashion as to make Milland
the most likely substitute. The
screen script goes right along with
it there.
In view of the fact that "The Big
Clock” fairly screams for a happy
ending, it is a cinch that Milland
will win out in the end. But with
all the suspects locked in the pub
lishing house and the tycoon’s gun
men on the hunt for a likely vic
tim. Farrow's direction works up a
reasonable degree of doubt.
At least, it is the most hysterical

While they do not believe one ex
aggerated word of it, the players
in “The Big Clock” enter almost
frantically into the mad spirit of
the story. Milland and Laughton
play their duel with finely simu
lated fervor; Maureen O’Sullivan is!
good as the poor young wife of the
editor, and there's |i whopping com
edv bit by Elsa Lanchester as a
half-demented impressionist painter.
Bv now, if Hollywood has any
sense at all, Miss Lanchester must
be recognized as one of the best as
sets any picture can have.
Especially one as basically deliri
ous as “The Big Clock.”

Hollywood:
All Is Merry
On Bette Davis’
Comedy Set
By Harold Heffernon
Everything appears bright and
sprightly with Bette Davis and
,the troupe now rehearsing "June
! Bride” at Warners. It’s the first
comedy she has attempted since
i "The Man Who Came to Dinner,”
of five years ago, and only the fifth
of her entire 60-picture career.
Bette skips from the grimly de
pressing backgrounds of "Winter
Meeting” into a small Midwestern
town—Indiana is the alleged site—
where she and Robert Montgomery,
as a pair of national magazine
editors, take over a wedding and
dominate it completely for their
own circulation purposes.
From the way the script reads, it
should prove a most hilarious
undertaking. Patterned somewhat
on "The Man Who Came to Dinner”
idea, Betty and Bob move in on the
surprised household, preparing their
owh sort of conservative wedding,
and soon are In absolute charge of
all operations.
They order the house redecorated
to the magazine's taste (for picture
purposes, of course), dictate the
wardrobe for the entire wedding
party, plan the reception and
j honeymoon and leave nothing to
| the decision of the bewildered
; principals.
> Magazine editors won’t like it, a
bit, but there's a good chance tne
Davis fans will be pleased to the
i extent of letting Bette hang onto
her career a while longer—perhaps
going so far as to wipe "Winter
Meeting" from their memories.
ik i ik i * 1
That new threat to the male
heart-throb field Is heading this
way once more, and Hollywood,
j hereafter, will be his permanent
home. Gov. Jimmie Davis of Lou
isiana, who starred a year ago in
} a successful movie named after his
1 State, vacates the Governor’s man
! sion in Shreveport May 11 and
heads right back to movieland.
Monogram has signed the singing
i Governor to a long-term contract,
| and he plans to buy a ranch in the
valley and settle down to the life
of a country gentleman. The film
business is a lot more permanent,
anyway, than running the State of
Louisiana. One term is the limit
there, but a politically ambitious
Governor can take a powder and. try
! again four years later.
But that's not to Jimmie Davis’
liking. He’s in movies to stay. Jim
mie’s first, comeback number is
titled "Manhattan Melody,” in
which he’ll sing his way from the
farmland of Louisiana to Broadway
—there to become famous and
wealthy in true Horatio Alger style.
Harpo Marx and hi* brother
comics, the moving spirit behind a
film-industry drive to raise funds
for the new Westwood Hospital, hit
upon a forceful method of shaming
donations from tardy industry big
shots. More than 600 top figures
I received in their mail a letter con
taining a crisp, new one-dollar bank
note and the following prod:
“Dear sir: Enclosed is a one
dollar bill. You may keep this dol
lar if you think you need it more
than the unfortunates whom our
hospital will care for. If you don’t
need the dollar, return it to us with
! all the additional dollars you pos
sibly can afford.”
The idea proved a huge success,
but you'd be amazed to hear the
names of five big-timers who kept
the dollar and made no return.

The mere thought of making a
movie of how the word “boycott”
got into the language would drive
Hollywood bald-headed. The British,
on the other hand, have made an
exciting acreenplav out of it in
“Captain Boycott,” which opened
yesterday at the Dupont.
To be specific, which the picture
itself is, "Captain Boycott” 'is the
violent tale of Ireland’s tenant
farmer revolt in 1880, the days of
Victoria and Parnell.
As revolutionists, of course, the
Irish have magnificent dramatic
possibilities. The Dupont’s feature,
from the novel of Phillip Rooney,
cashes in on them effectively. True,
it is not the most brilliantly edited
piece of cinema any one has seen
this season, but it has the retrieving
grace of a cast which is expert. At
the head of the player list are Stew
art Granger, Alastair Sim, Cecil
Parker and Kathleen Ryan. Right
behind them come those Abbey play
ers who made "Odd Man Out” such
a screenplay to remember.
There is wit and tenderness as
well as emotional explosiveness in
“Captain Boycott.” Moreover, in view
of the improvement in their rela
tions in modern times, there is even
an archly kind word for the ad
jacent British. It is a considerably
less than black picture that is
painted of James Boycott, himself,
although the evils which he sym
bolizes are called baldly by their
harsher names.
Boycott, the picture recalls, was a
landlord in the grimly beautiful
county of Mayo. His excessive rents
were first the despair of the tenant
farmer class, later the inspiration
of their violent resistance. ITie

violence, however, only makes the’
situation worse. That Is where it re
mains until Parnell comes along
with his land league, a union of
tenant farmers pledged to passive
aesistance, to leaving the land fal
low, the crops unharvested, and
Capt. Boycott to his own devices.
In other words, the Irish boycotted
Boycott, and eventually broke him.
The camera narrative of this
serious business carries a neatly in
terpolated love story acted by
Granger and Miss Ryan.
On the whole, it makes an ef
fective dramatization of a bit of
history that was made on a somberly
beautiful stage by a group of hand
somely expert actors. J. C.
