...gives them all what they desire. No children's tale is Hollywood's Wizard of Oz. Lavish in sets, adult in humor, it is a Broadway spectacle translated into make-believe. Most of its entertainment comes from the polished work (aided by Jack Dawn's expert makeup) of seasoned Troupers Lahr, Bolger and Haley...
Famed since L'Oeuvre became a daily in 1915 have been that Left-Liberal Paris newspaper's manchettes. In French newspaper makeup, the manchette (literally, cuff; in U. S. parlance, the ears) is the space next to the paper's name in which its more-or-less reverent editors insert (instead of the weather forecast or NIGHT EDITION ***** ) thoughts for the day, mots on the news, quotations from the philosophers.

Believe it or not, Mr. Chips was young once, and so was Robert Donat, whose fishskin makeup in the first sequences is the most thorough- going physical transformation since the days of Lon Chancy. Believe it or not, Mr. Chips once courted a pretty girl in Vienna, and married her. And he was headmaster once, during the War, when all the able hands were at the front...
