The article presents information on motion pictures. The motion picture "Madchen in Uniform," is a German-made picture showing at the Criterion. This film does more than merely tell its story in an honest and straightforward way. It succeeds in permeating the story with an atmosphere of sensitive understanding that makes its characters supremely human. The main charm of the motion picture is the naturalness with which the school girls play their parts. In the motion picture "Goona Goona" a cameo the story and treatment derive quite noticeably from Hollywood models, but the acting of the natives as noticeably does not and with the grace of the women, the splendid physique of the men, the quaint customs and the beautiful scenery of the island of Bali, the film is worth seeing.
