"George White's 1935 Scandals," another one of those overlooked Fox musicals churned out during the middle thirties, but as high in quality as anything being produced at any other studio. In fact, this is pretty much Fox's attempt to produce a Warner Bros. musical -- George White himself appears as the snappy-talking Cagneyesque producer, Alice Faye is an odd combination of Ruby Keeler and Ginger Rogers, James Dunn is Dick Powell, Cliff Edwards is Frank McHugh with a ukulele, Lyda Roberti is Una Merkel, Arline Judge is Joan Blondell, and Ned Sparks is -- Ned Sparks. All that's missing is Guy Kibbee and Hugh Herbert, but they did find a place for Benny Rubin.

I watched THE MISSING JUROR (1944) this morning, one of the least puzzling mystery-thrillers ever made, though one does find oneself wondering how Jim Bannon, who plays the protagonist, ace reporter Jim Keats, ever got cast in anything, so that's one sort of mystery.

Private Lives (1931) starring Norma Shearer, Robert Montgomery, Una Merkel and Reginald Denny. Great movie, though I wish I could have seen the play at the Phoenix Theatre, London back in 1930 with the cast of Adrianne Allen, Noel Coward, Laurence Olivier and Gertrude Lawrence.

"It was everyday implied but never declared".
