...Girl of the Golden West (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer) plasters opulent prettiness, vociferous songs and an assortment of plot cliches all over David Belasco's ancient yarn about the mad, bad days in early California. Walter Pidgeon, sheriff of Cloudy Mountain, and Bandit Chief Nelson Eddy are rivals for Jeanette MacDonald, pastel-tinted proprietress of the Polka Saloon. Eddy's dimples, wavy hair and roly-poly pinkness satisfy the popular idea of a rakehell bad man about as well as they did that of a West Point football player in Rosalie. Miss MacDonald's concession to her role...
...Proof (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer). Myrna Loy, Franchot Tone, Rosalind Russell and Walter Pidgeon as four smart young people bandying sharp-eyed badinage.

With equal likelihood the Ellis-Pidgeon doings will add up to a well-acted romantic involvement...
...criminology and a new Joan Bennett. The criminology revolves around a private detective who found a margin of profits in his employment as a liaison between insurance companies and the underworld, from which the companies were interested in recovering stolen gems to obviate payments to their clients. Morey (Walter Pidgeon) is the private detective of Big Brown Eyes, working with an associate whose crimes include infanticide. The Big Brown Eyes are Eve's (Joan Bennett), who has been transformed from a quiet type into a slangy manicurist whose assured deportment and reconditioned make-up make her virtually indistinguishable from...
