Tin •• G OOD Morningl Penal colony proceeding. certainly are weighing heftily on the minds of producers these days! We've had "Devil's Island," "Prisoner of Shark's Island," and now comes "King of the Damned" -there's a title for you that might mean anything-which tells a tale of revolt in a penal colony, on a fictitious island. It is an English production, evi· dently made with the idea of arous- ing sympathy for convicts who are badly treated, and proving to the world at large that, if managed as men instead of as animals--" It's like being in a menagerie!," says the heroine of the piece, with a shuddex:-theid act like men. ;SUT- Plot 'Progresses in lin ,Unconvincing Manner. The picture doesn't prove its point. You find it impossible to park your sympathies either on one side or the other. Some of the officials are cusses, but then-so are many of th& prisoners. The ••king "--a convict of supe- rior intelligence, known as "83," who heads the revolters, arouses your pity and respect-but there is much about many of the men he controls that convinces you they need-not brutality, certainly!-but plenty of good rigorous discipline. The "king's" idea Is to take the colony over, run it as it should be run, and persuade observers and unbelievers of the superefficiency of humaneness over the waste of Inhumaneness. It is his desire to make the revolution bloodless, Well, you know that one about the best laid plans 0' mice and men ••• n? Noah Berry Gives Grand Performance as Drunk. Intrigues, riots, fights, follow In rapid succession. Hectic, all of the action, but, somehow, MOST un- convincing. Noah Beery, as a revolutionist whose addiction to whiskey inter- feres considerably with his poten- tial rightness of purpose and the intentions of "83," gives a bang-up performance-quite on a par with some of his brother Wallace's best ones. Conrad Veidt is an arrest- Ing personality as " 83." Helen Vinson, as the daughter of a kindly colony head who has been sup- planted, plays sincerely and effec· tively. Cecil Ramage is sinister, handsome, and a devil as the sup- planting commander. Direction's not so hot. "King of the Damned" isn't ex- actly ten, twent' thirt' melodrama, but it's mighty close to it. See you tomorrowl Flags Cause Scare. TOULON, France.-{JP)-Fears of a ••Nazi coup," harbored by some clti- zens when they learned that a Toulon factory was making flags bearing the Hitlerian hooked cross, were dispelled when it was disclosed that the ern- blems were b~ing manufactured for the French navy, which needed a stock for the perfomance of maritime courtesies.

Feature Films to Be Longer in the Future M OVIE executives are plan- ning to put more footage into future feature films. The running time will be extende.d from approximately 70 minutes to two hours or more, ac- cording to the entertainment value of the picture. By this means the producers hope to end the so-called menace of double features. Exhibitors pay very little more nowadays for the rental of two pictures than they formerly paid for one, and the studlos feel that if the double pic- ture idea is abolished the revenue Will increase. Producers havebeenmakingsec- ond rate pictures, calling them" B" products, which are to be used for double bills, but they areannoyed by the fact that more costly films known as " A" pictures are, in most theaters, used along with "B" films. The smaller theaters cannot afford to pay the rental on "A ", pictures, so they pay the "B" rental for better films. Samuel Goldwyn thus voices the opinion of Hollywood producers: " If the public will sit through two bad pictures that consume three hours' time, there is no reason why it shouldn't sit through one good picture that will run that length. The same holdstrue of enduring a bad picture in order to view a good one." Producers know by experience that the public will not sit through a three hour film unless it isen- tertaining. Two recently filmed productions, "Anthony Adverse" and "Romeo and Juliet," run two and a half hours each, and are both far be- yond the average film in entertain- ment. Another film of good quality is "The Great Ziegfeld," which runs three hours. Films of this quality are rare,however, and pro- ducers will have to do a great deal of exploring to find suitable stories to hold the interest of the audience for that length of tirr:e. The double feature bills became popular during the depression era. Theaters discovered they had tv 'CHICAGO SUNDAY TRIBUNE: "THE COUNTRY DOCTOR" Here's ~ean Hersholt as he appears in the title role of "The Co untry Doctor" (Roosevelt).

these days!We've had "Devil's Island,"

"Prisoner of Shark's Island," andnow comes "King of the Damned"-there's a title for you that mightmean anything-which tells a taleof revolt in a penal colony, on afictitious island.It is an English production, evi·

dently made with the idea of arous-ing sympathy for convicts who arebadly treated, and proving to theworld at large that, if managed asmen instead of as animals--" It'slike being in a menagerie!," saysthe heroine of the piece, with ashuddex:-theid act like men.;SUT-

rapid succession. Hectic, all of theaction, but, somehow, MOST un-convincing.Noah Beery, as a revolutionist

whose addiction to whiskey inter-feres considerably with his poten-tial rightness of purpose and theintentions of "83," gives a bang-upperformance-quite on a par withsome of his brother Wallace's bestones. Conrad Veidt is an arrest-Ing personality as " 83." HelenVinson, as the daughter of a kindlycolony head who has been sup-planted, plays sincerely and effec·tively. Cecil Ramage is sinister,handsome, and a devil as the sup-planting commander.

Direction's not so hot."King of the Damned" isn't ex-

actly ten, twent' thirt' melodrama,but it's mighty close to it.See you tomorrowl
