FROM THE NOVEL BY SINCLAIR LEWIS A JOHN FORD PRODUIRIN UNITED ARTISTS PICTURE

Adapted from the most widely read best seller novel that had the distinction of being awarded both the Pulitzer and Nobel Prizes.

Produced and recorded with the latest invented noiseless sound apparatus The story is at its best, vivid, ironic and picturesquely tragic The dialogue is human and astonishingly convincing. The direction is outstanding and the acting is inspiring, brilliant and breathlessly real. It has been acknowledged by the film critic as one of the best pictures of the year."
