...mightily thoracic Tarzan, blending with his eerie ee-ya-ee call the chewing-gum flavor of her pronounced Brooklyn accent. This new Tarzan is lean, 6-ft. 2-in., Olympic Champion Glenn Morris, summoned to the role to replace Johnny Weissmuller. Actor Morris, who heroically combines the facial qualities of Broadway's Burgess Meredith and Hollywood's Harpo Marx, has the miming ability of neither. What he has is the 1936 Olympic decathlon title. His costume: no leopard skin, but a serviceable breechclout, a knife...

After an evening of research at the dinner table, it has been decided the facial postures of Drenchers Litvinoff and Eden (TIME, Nov. 22, p. 21) are not due to any political, social, or cultural affiliations of either, but rather to the stage of tea drinking reached by each.

Although Actor Homolka mars his early sequences by facial displays known as mugging, he finally brings his role under the control that distinguished his work in British films (Rhodes, A Woman Alone). Pug-faced, whimsical Barry Fitzgerald, Hollywood recruit from Ireland's Abbey Players, mugs too, but mugging, reckless shadow boxing and a cinemaddiction to strong drink are the Fitzgerald stock in trade. Ebb Tide provides several "firsts": It is Technicolor's first sea story; Viennese Oscar Homolka's first Hollywood vehicle; blonde Frances Farmer's first appearance in a sarong. Navy Blue and Gold (Metro...

...attack of Bell's palsy. The right side of his face hung slack as a bloodhound's jowls. Anna, his wife, "was frantic." He went to bed at once. Neurologists tickled him with electric currents, and an orthopedist stripped his face in a brace. This supported his facial muscles until the nerves recovered and took charge of muscular tone. After three and a half weeks Dr. Fishbein recovered with no residual grimace...
