Nlany ofthe best books are now alive on the current screen. lfyou've read the book, this is your chance to see it from another viewpoint than you may have had. You can also learn to un- derstand a book better in this way. Following are films that have been taken from popular books on the mar- ket today, and also the books and plays that are classics. 0 Rome of fhe Rancho It' you listen to the radio regularly, you, no doubt have heard Gladys Swarthout in countless numbers of playlettes, and operettas. Rose of the Rancho is bliss Swarthout's tirst starring feature. She plays opposite lohn lioles in a play that takes place in the days ofthe Dons in early Cali- fornia, when bandits ruled towns and countrysides, and when men risked their lives for love. Set against Para- mount's best scenery and photogra- phy. Rose of the Rancho may be considered a classic of the films. Sup- porting .xliss Swarthout and singing Holes are Charles Bickford, ll. B. Xvarner, Charlotte Granville, and Yvil- lie lloward. The movie was directed by hlarion Gering, and selected from a play by Richard Tully and Daniel Helasco, The music of this opus is said to be soothing to the ears, as we might expect it to be from both lohn Bolesand charming Gladys Swarthout. ' Barbary Coast Hllarbary Coast, having been written by lien llecht and Charles Hlacxirthur, can be rightly considered one of the outstanding films of the year. It concerns life in the days of '49 when everyone was digging for gold and when there was a mad rush to California. l' l' l ii:- Q B ii W l ' yg The story centers about a young girl who comes to California in a search for her fiance. She finds him dead. From there on the film is just a rally of excitement with gun-shoot- ing, deaths, and other incidents that go about to make Barbary Coast an interesting feature. The girl is played by hliriam Hopkins. Edward G. Rob- inson offers her able assistance in por- traying the murderer. Seeing this pic- ture is a good way to learn of the Xvest in the pioneering days. Besides, it shows llopkins at her best, and Hopkins at her best is good enough for anyonel tsamuel Goldwyn is the producer. J 0 I Dream Too Jluch I Dream Too Much is a picture starring one of the greatest operatic singers in the country, and a young star who is rapidly rising to film fame. llenry Fonda plays the role of the youth who wants to make Lily Pons an opera star' this is in the script. However, her own dreams of success and happiness is to be married, own a home, be a housewife and a mother - 'almost every woman's dream. There are lovely scores of music done by Lily Pons. It is based on a story by Elsie Finn and David G. Yvittels, and is directed by lohn Cromwell. .flufiny on the Bounfy The maiden's heart will flutter and her beau will grit his teeth when in .Nlutiny on the Bounty, Clark Gable appears on the scene. Gable provides a splendid characterization of the leader of a band of mutineers aboard the ship Bounty He, of course, has to make love to someone, so naturally there's a woman in the castl Franchot Tone looks his charming best as an
