...Columbia University, asked to say with whom they would best like to be cast adrift on a desert island, chose blonde, ladylike Madeleine Carroll. Safari promises to reduce this dream to reality when, as Linda Stewart, Cinemactress Carroll is taken by her wealthy admirer Baron de Courland (Tullio Carminati) on a jungle expedition led by dashing Jim Logan (Douglas Fairbanks Jr.). When the matter-of-fact Baron spends most of his time bagging specimens, Linda undertakes to jog him into jealousy and a proposal by flirting with Jim. The moment seems to have arrived when Linda and Jim, caught away...
...cast, Tullio Carminati, as Jumel, is excellent, and Irene Bordoni, playing a French dressmaker who becomes a countess, is, as always, delightful; Shepperd Strudwick, the Napoleon addict is adequate, but his performance lacks sureness. Frederick Loewe's music is pleasant if not catching, the outstanding number being "Why Can't This Night Last Forever." William Dollar's choreography is often striking, but over balanced with quasi-ballet. Albert Johnson's revolving sets are superb...

Carminati, rich and cynical, complains that love is an ephemeral flower, but that, of course, is before he meets Miss Harvey. Also on the program is a very interesting installment of the "March of Time," including a Russian chapter of unusual brilliance...
...Live Tonight (Columbia). A gay bachelor (Tullio Carminati) sings a waltz to a young girl (Lilian Harvey) whom he picked up in the Casino, took aboard his yacht. Fearing he loves her honestly, he sails away alone without telling her why. When he returns, the girl has agreed to marry his brother. Clearing the matter up takes much dialog and some music. Best shot: the final one, in which the heroine hears the theme song, "Love Passes By," played by a hurdy-gurdy, tooted on an automobile horn, sung by a beautician, a gardener and Carminati...
