Brand Pinker, who helped Conrad, Arnold Bennett and D. H. Lawrence cut their publishing teeth, Eric Pinker took over his family's lucrative U. S. business in 1930. Since then he and his partner-wife, Actress Adrienne Morrison (mother of Cinemactresses Constance and Joan Bennett), have captivated many a literary tea. Shocking it was, therefore, when angry old Author Oppenheim accused Eric Pinker of withholding $21,000 owed him for U. S. publication of his works...
...troupe of professional skaters, photographed from all angles. The other half is devoted to a dull narrative in which James Stewart and Joan Crawford, as a pair of professional skaters (who never skate), achieve fame in the movies.

He got back in time to help Friends James and Rapson get their entry in just under the wire, because "competitions...
...mistake for the producers to import Mr. Marshall from the dignity of his Paris apartment to the wild charms of music-hall life; also sad is the change forced on Bert Lahr, who has been transported from his usual garden of foolery to the role of Zaza's faithful partner. Even the erratic foibles of Helen Westley fail to inject a real sparkle into the picture. With a more personable male lead, and a plot just a bit more complicated than its two-sided triangle, "Zaza" might have provided real film relish...
