...farmers early for all appointments, so it was not much after nine when they began squeezing out of Washington's tiny taxicabs, deploying awkwardly into the huge building. *Inside, their embarrassment quickly wore off (see cut opposite, below). Constricting "store clothes" coats were peeled, exuberant cries of "Yip-pee!" went up and in an atmosphere part camp-meeting and part Saturday-night-at-the-county-fair, sectional lines began to appear...
...graduate daughter now studying abroad. Church owns white-folks' houses as well as Beale Street property, and outside his offices at No. 392 Beale St. the Negroes staged their own carnival, "The Opening of the Gates of Ham."

New Faces lacks pace and polish, contains enough wit to make it good entertainment...

Consequently, scenes in All of Me which show her as an attentive audience to the curt love making of Raft and his mistress are more effective than they should be. The picture is a pee-wee parable, strident, quick and insincere. Grisly shot: Raft's jump...
