Crashing Hollywood (RKO Radio). Oldtimer Lee Tracy, Joan Woodbury and a group of recidivists from the RKO stock company make melodrama among the studio’s sound stages. Old hokum, new style.

Man-Proof (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer). Myrna Loy, Franchot Tone, Rosalind Russell and Walter Pidgeon as four smart young people bandying sharp-eyed badinage. Even when they are seething with despair or rage, they pretend to be as gay as the late Don Marquis’ mehitabel. Most frequent line: ”Don’t like you.” Current & Choice Wells Fargo (Joel McCrea, Frances Dee, Bob Burns: TIME, Jan. 10).

Tovarich (Claudette Colbert, Charles Boyer, Basil Rathbone: TIME, Jan. 3).

True Confession (Carole Lombard, Fred MacMurray, John Barrymore: TIME, Dec. 27).

Nothing Sacred (Carole Lombard, Fredric March, Charles Winninger: TIME, Dec. 6).
