Now playing at the University is a rather unimportant film entitled "Artists and Models," and it by no means deserves the advertising trappings with which it has been draped. In fact it is only the indefatigable Jack Benny who keeps the show from being a rather inconsequential hodge-podge. In their efforts to please everyone, the producers have put a great many ingredients in their cinematic soup and include in their cast along with Ida Lupino, Gail Patrick, and Richard Arlen, Andre Kostelanetz, Connie Boswell, the Yacht Club Boys, Martha Raye, Louis Armstrong, McClelland Barclay, Peter Arno, and two "rhythm swimmers" who pretty nearly steal the show with their performance in a sequence of "Whispers in the Dark."

The plot is of about as much importance as is usual in this type of film, and if musical vaudeville is tops in entertainment value at the present. "Artists and Models" will posses definite appeal to the moviegoer because the picture is better than average in its line.

"Think Fast Mr. Moto" is the second feature and in it the sinister Peter Lorre jiu-jitzues his way to the exposure of an astute leader of a smuggling gang. A dramatic finish gives extra impetus to a film whose worth depends entirely on the individual's liking for Mr. Lorre. "Think Fast Mr. Moto" loses some of its punch since its theme is too strongly in contrast with that of its forerunner and becomes the mediocre backer-up on a mediocre bill.
