Films

Doren, Mark Van | October 10, 1936 issue

A new theater has been opened in New York with the design of proving to interested persons that the studios of Europe are once more, after several years of faltering and eclipse, a challenge to Hollywood. The inaugural program of this theater, named rather unpleasantly the Filmarte, offers "a haven from all that is philistinism in the movie-at-large" and "a rendezvous for the cinema devotee to whom films are something more than an innocuous diversion." The battle of the films, with all of Europe on one side and all of Hollywood on the other, is something of a bore.
