“GOOD GIRLS" STAR
IN SQUARE DANCE—
Joan Blondell has danced on the
vaudeville stage, on Broadway and
in motion pictures. She thought
she knew the routine of every
terpsichorean invention, and than
she was assigned a co-starring role
with Melvyn Douglas in Columbia’s
“Good Girls Go to Paris,” coming
to the Joy Theatre Tuesday.
For her characterization in the
picture, Miss Blondell was required
to dance the old-fashioned “square I
dance.” It was one routine she had
to master under the guidance of a
special instructor.
LESLIE FENTON’S
SECOND PRODUCTION—
“Stronger Than Desire” is the
second major feature directed by
Leslie Fenton, former actor, who
directed “Tell No Tales.” Fenton
forsook acting to direct, and after
a series of highly successfull short
subjects was assigned to major fea-
tures. He returned to acting only
once, to play the convicted mur-
derer in “Boys Town.” John W.
Considine, Jr., producer of such
hits as Boys Town, Dancing Lady,
and Broadway Melody of 1936, is
the producer.
