The Cuban Love Song. One of the strangest “locations” ever used for a talking picture is seen ,jn “The Cuban Love Song,” Lawrence Tibbett’s latest starring "Vehicle. The famous Scott ranch in Santa Monica Canyon, California, was transformed into a tropical locale for the pictur esque fiesta scene of the protection. Transplanting palms, mango trees. carloads of imported, tropical fruits, • and a pclyglot crowd of Spanish, Mexican, Chinese and Cuban extras contributed to make an exotic atmos- pher e for an episode in which Tibbett sings a Cuban stng, and Lupe Velez dances a rumba to the accompaniment of the noted Palau Brothers’ Cuban Orchestra imported from Havana. Two startling novelties in music are introduced, one of which is a dramatic epsode told almost entirely in song. The other is a “tone” poem that il lustrates a pictorial account of a voyage at sea.

It gets giggles and guffaws galore out of aviation fiel.s, aviation training and pilots, treating all Vfith gentle, but highly amusing satire. The principal protag; nists are Bert Lahr, Ameri ca’s most imitated comedian, in his original stage starring role of Rusty Krause, and Charlotte Greenwood as Pansy Botts, the waitress who adver tises that she wants to marry an aviator—and di es! "Flying High” is a ccmedy with music, and therp are four delightful numbers, three by Fields-McHugh. and cne by DeSylva, Brown and Henderson. Possessed. Joan Crawford, who s eems to give fresh evidence cf an unusual acting talent with her' every succeeding vehicle, ii at her framatic best in “Possessed.” The picture, based cn the Edga r Selwyn stage play, "The Mirage," gives the star her most aer- ioiia role sin^e “Paid”—that of a poor factory girl who, anxious to better her position in life, becomes involved in an affair with a young politician of wealth and social standing. Since politics and scandal are never far apart, she discovers that he r name is being used to advantage in an in sidious campaign to prevent the man she loves from being nominated for governor. He r heroic attempt to save hi 8 political career at the risk of her •personal happiness makes for a drama of considerable interest, and .one that keeps it 8 audience constantly on the alert for what will happen next.
