WHAT IS A SLEEPER?
In the language of the movie bus
iness, a "sleeper" is a picture that
comes through the studios, unher
alded and unsung almost unnoticed
and TURNS OUT TO BE BET
TER ENTERTAINMENT THAN
SOME OF THE SUPER-COLOS-SALS!
Such a picture is "A Man to Re
member" in which Anne Shirley,
Edward Ellis and other great troup
ers bring you the story of a country
doctor. We join Hollywood's critics
in urging you not to miss it. It will
come to your theater on Friday and
Saturday.
The companion picture on the
Friday-Saturday double feature pro
gram is "Colorado Trail," featuring
Charles Starrett, Iris Meredith and
the singing cowboy group, Sons of
the Pioneers. Starrett reached Hol
lywood via Dartmouth College where
he was a member of Dartmouth's
famous "Wonder football team."
The Hi-Yo Silver Matinees at
2:30 on Saturday are starting off
with a bang. Why not get in on the
fun? 10c for everyone.
The Sunday - Monday feature
"Four Daughters is based on Fannie
Hurst's famous story "Sister Act"
and features the three Lane Sisters
(Priscilla, Rosemary and Lola) and
Gale Page as the Four Daughters.
It is not claimed to be magnificent,
colossal, gigantic, stupendous or
amazing, but we do claim that here
indeed is delightful, heart-warming
entertainment, the kind of picture
that deserves the patronage of every
man, woman and child.
Edward G. Robinson once thought
himself something of a specialist in
gangster roles. Then Columbia made
"I AM THE LAW and Mr. Robin
son was cast as a fighting prosecutor
who cleans up the rackets. The fea
ture comes to the Star on Tuesday
only. There is a fine supporting cast.
Imagine Public Funnyman No. 1
as a superman on the gridiron . . .
and the modern Hercules of the
wrestling ring! Tearing down the
field for a hundred-laugh gain . . .
and throwing ferocious Man Moun
tain Dean for a total loss! That is
Joe E. Brown in THE GLADIATOR,
Wednesday-Thursday.
The short subjects consist of a
newsreel covering reciprocal trade
pacts, skiing at Mt. Hood, California
vs. Stanford, Notre Dame vs. North
western; an Our Gang comedy in
which the kids get a yen for the
theater; and the story of Michel de
Nostradamus who became one of
the greatest doctors of all time.
