Van Dyke, to reconi in photography and sound that great epic of the North. “Eskimo," The picture, which will have its first local showing on Sunday at the Queen's | Theatre, presents not only a stirring |and engrossing panorama of the life with its dangers and hardships of the natives living in the icy regions, but also in the first photoplay to treat of the Eskimo's strange gide of morals which pormita the Tonning of one's wife to ann's friend and the exchang. log of wives freely. It is this extra- ordinary "matrimonial code" which provides the story's powerful theme, hiata, the principal character of "Eskimo," has two wives and while ho does not mind lending his wife to his brother Eskimos, he deeply resents the lecherous desires of n white captain of a whaling ship, an antagonism which ultimately culmin. ates in a murder. fow statistica

Great secrecy surrounded the mak- Ing of one of the big musical numbers featured in "Footlight Parade," War. ner Brea. third in their succession of big musical pictures which opened simultaneously yesterday at the Queen's and Alhambra Theatres. After a preliminary announcement from Busby Berkelely, creator of the musical numbers in "42nd Street" and "Gold Diggers of 1933 to the effect that he planned a "water number" for the new picture that would outdo any previous screen effect he has originat ed, the sound stage where he worked was close to the public and to all studio employees except those actual- ly emplyed there. The surprise angle in the water Reese has never been disclosed and will not be known until the picture is shown. This m her is one of the spectacles in a musiest comedy rolete with unique ensembles. In adition, there is a fascinating romance in the drama of buckstage life mincted by an ali atar cast including Jirny Cagney, Jan Blondell, Ruby Keeler, Dick Powell, Frank Mellugh, Guy Kibbe, Ruth Donnelly and Claire Dod. The ric- ture was directed by Lloyd Bacon from the kereen play by Manuel Self and James Seymour.
