"Viva Villa”
Latest and perhaps most powerful of the screen's great romantle biogra- phies, "Viva Villa!" fictional story of of Pancho Villa, great the life Mexican revolutionary leader opens to-day at the Queen's Theatre. It proves once again that romanticised biography, when imperishably re corded on film, is one of the most cumpelling forms of entertainment- largely, of course, because the lives of great personalities are the most Layed from the Traxy Clems, powerful story material. As
record of personal achievement and con- quest, and as an intriguing record of the love affairs of 'a great warrior, "Viva Vila!? takes its place ninong the Immortal biographical produc tions of the screen. It ranks with such masterpieces as "Queen Chris- tina," "Diarnell," "Abraham Lincoln," "Alexander Hamilton" and "Henry the Fighth." Wallace Beery, In the role of Pancho Villa, is a new and amazing personality. In inte venra | Beery has been associated with semi- romantic comedy, but in the powerful figure of Villa he is oddly reminiscent of the Beery of his first grent per- sonal triumph. an another tragle figure, Richard the Lion-Hearted, Filmed largely in Mexico frequently against obstacles that seemed insur mountable, the picture is presented as fictional recording of Villa's achievements In freeing the
poor, dethroning the tyrants, restoring pence to Mexico. More than 100.000 natives were used in the tremendous battle arches. Added to the specto- cular aspects of the film is the roman- tic glow of the conqueror's uffnirs of the heart. Fay Wray and Katherine De Mille share the feminine honours. programme uf The cast ineludes Leo Carillo, Donald Cook, Stuart-Erwin, George - Stone, Joseph Schildkraut. Henry B. Wait- ball, Phillip Cooper, Frank Puglia and others. Jack Conway directed.
