Searching for a story to carry out this idea M-G-M picked the frank nov el, ‘‘War Nurse,” which caused so much discussion when it appeared se- j rially in a national magazine. The players of the piece include members of an American nursing unit in France during 1915, aviators of the Lafayette Escadrille, French and English soldiers. The principal protagonists, tw oaviators and two nur. es, are played by Robert Mont gomery of “The Divorcee” and “The Big House,” Robert Ames of “Holi day,’ ’June Walker, the stage star of “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,” and An ita Page of “Our Blushing Brides.” Other comedy and dramatic scenes are in the hands of such well-known players as Zasu Pitts, Marie Provost, Helen Jerome Eddy, Hedda Hopper, Edward Nugent, Martha Sleeper and ; Michael Yavitch. Outstanding scenes include: Introduction of a group of society girls to the jog of turning a French stable into a hospital.

The discovery by “Joy” that her lover, “Robin” is the seriously wound ed man brought in just as the big guns begin to smash the ambulance walls.

Th esettings include hospitals at the front, the middle section, and the base ports, battlefields through which ambulances threaded their way to the rear, provincial cafes where soldiers and nurses took their fun, and the night clubs of Paris. “It” Girl Heads Big Laugh Hit of Year Sizzling!

Its laughs at the start, in the middle and love at the end. It’s a Bow kockout. Imagine Clara Bow as a red-head ed movie star in France, where, be cause she doesn’t understand the lan guage, she unwittingly becomes the bride in a wedding ceremony in which the groom is masquerading under an assumed name. Thus she becomes the wife, by proxy, of a man she has never seen. And when they meet, and when Charlie Ruggles gets in his complicat ing comedy, and when Skeets Galla gher. the bridegroom’s proxy, gets through explaining, there’s a divert ing love story with Clara falling hard for her strangely acquired husband, Ralph Forbes. “Her Wedding Night” zips in Paris, whizzes through France, and winds up in a mery matrimonial tangle in Venice. The cast is superb.
