PRODUCTION

Two English pictures just shown to the trade indicate that quality and entertainment value are registered again in the studios. Alfred Hitchcock, who directed "Juno and the Paycock," Sean O'Casey's play, certainly did his job well, whilst Jack Raymond, who did "Splinters," a semi-war picture with plenty of humor and punch, has got away with quite a lot of nice notices from the press. In due time these films will go across the pond, perhaps, and then our hard boiled cousins will be able to register their own reactions and comparisons.

WHAT'S DOING IN ENGLAND?

Alfred Hitchcock is beginning the first scenes of "Enter Sir John" at Elstree. Harry Lachman, Thomas Bentley and Thomas Summers have each a subject settled.
