Although Diana Wynyard and Clive Brook are teamed together for the first time since "Cavalcade" in Radio Pictures' new gem, "Where Sinners Meet," it might have been as well if they had let this one go and taken the next vehicle that came along. A. A. Milne has been termed a great man, but even great men cannot count upon the vagaries of the cinema world, and the havoc which Hollywood has wreaked upon "The Dover Road," an enjoyable play, is so remarkable that even the genius that was once Diana Wynyard cannot pull it out.

"Where Sinners Meet" is cast in the house of a millionaire on the Dover Road, England; the master of the house spends his life trying to aid the oppressed and the love lorn. American ideas of the English are surprisingly amusing, and at times highly annoying, but any breath of an English accent is as nectar to the American public and per se assures the picture of success, as is borne out by the reactions of the audience in the present case. So also any joke which the audience does not catch, goes as an extremely subtle Anglicism and draws hearty guffaws.

Turning to the acting, we find that there are still a few of the great hams left, of whom one of the primest is Reginald Owen. His interpretation of an Englishman is indeed unique and extremely boring, even as Americans view him. Miss Wynyard and Mr. Brook don't seem to work too well together, and Mr. J. Walter Ruben, who has never produced anything very startling, certainly didn't help them along to any great extent.

The other full length film on the dockets is a saga of the late war, entitled "Keep 'Em Rolling" with Walter Huston taking the lead. The story is of a man and his horse who encounter all the rigors of an army camp and a war life. The plot is over sentimental and rather illogical, and Mr. Huston fails to come up to his usual high standard.

In general the double bill isn't very worth while, despite the fact that half of Boston seemed to be watching the films on a sultry Friday afternoon.
