...producers-content for nine-tenths of the year with dispensing sentimental froth and such subtitles as: "Morning came, but the heart of the beautiful lady was dark with despair"-may well take another look at Europe, the land of Variety, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, The Rat and its sequel, The Triumph of the Rat. This last named film (an English production) is "shot" from shrewd angles; contains Paris den and ballroom scenes; has a lean, dark hero (Ivor Novello) who can make love like a gentleman and gnaw a bone dramatically. The lady of the film is Isabel Jeans...
...sequel to the successful Degas show, an exhibition of reproductions of Old Master drawings is now on view in the Print Room of the Fogg Museum. The reproductions are from the New York dealer, E.

Last year, God's Stepchildren, a study in miscegenation worked out like an inexorable chapter from the Old Testament, was very highly praised. Sequel...
ROSA?Knud Hamsun?Knopf ($2.50). The chronicles of Sirilund fishing village are still-life sketches beside Hunger and Segelfoss Town and Growth of the Soil. But Hamsun, pride of Norway, is a man to read thoroughly. This sequel to Benoni is named for Rosa because it is told in the first person by a young student that came to Sirilund just after her divorce was arranged, just before she married Benoni Hartvigsen. He is homely and humble, this student, and loves Rosa inevitably. Is she not the only beautiful thing in that village of drying fish and stuffy sitting rooms...
