Newspaper Page Textt ! ,PAGE TWO trange Morma Shearer, Clark Gable Teamed Again; "Asides" Effectively Employed ., : Heralded as the moat extraor dinary motion picture e?er to reach the talking screen, "Strange Interlude, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer CNeUl drama which ran on Broadway for a year and a half and won the PnlUier prise award - for the finest play of the season of 1128-29. will open today at the Elsinore theatre. The principal roles in the talkie Tersioa of O'Neill's brilliant psy- ehlatrlc study are played by Nor ma Shearer and dark Gable, who are together again for the first time since their successful joint appearance in A Free Soul." Miss Shearer enacts the role played In the stage version by Lynn Fon tanne, while Gable has the part of the young doctor. i "Strange Interlude" has been called the most daring venture ! ever attempted in motion pictures, chiefly because of its nltra-sophis-ticated theme, which . deals with a neurotic woman who undergoes a series of . intensely dramatie ex- " periences, and also because of its dialogue "asides," in which the actors express themselves politely and then hastily reveal their pri vate opinions, which are totally at variance with the spoken ex- ' pression. To achieve this effect. Director Leonard first made a take" In which only the "thoughts' were recorded. Each scene was then taken again with the players speaking their regu lar lines, the "thoughts" being played back and re-recorded to fit it with the dialogue. "Strange Interlude" offers bril liant examples of the art of screen . makeup for the plot covers a span of some 13 years, requiring the players to appear at three differ ent stages of life youth, middle age and old-age.

Include a superstitious mother, a weepy bride, a generous father, a baseball crazy girt, a hard boiled boss, a studious lover, a bluffing ball player, and a stu pid maid. Appearing for the first time with Chemeketa Players are Gwendolyn Hubbard, formerly of Salem high school and Linfield college, who played, with the Tay lor street players of Portland when that group presented "Street Scene"; and Wayne Fehl er, who gained his dramatic ex perience In the Salem high school. f C'l IT HOLLYWOOD .
