M-G-M dramn filmed in Technicolor. with Edmund Gwenn giving a. moving portrayal 0f the doctor of a Scotch village. and Lassie seen as the collie who Lids him on his rounds. Gwcnn plays tho gruff but ton- der-hearted William MacLum, who has devoted his life to the care of his neighbors and who finds him- self up against two tough obstacles. One is to prove that his collie dog. Lass, is not the coward he appears. Lass, terrified of water, was palm; ed of! on him by the shrewd farm- er, Mllron. It. is the obstinate Mll- ton who is also MacLures ant-agon- ist in his second problem, For Mac- Lure wants to train Milton's young oon. Tammas. to succeed him as a doctor. Milton. on the other hand. is detenfnined that Tammas shall become a. farmer. a decision encour- aged by the boy's sweetheart, Mar- git, who feels that the life oi a doc- tor's wife ls a lonely one. MacLure wins his first battle when Tammas, suddenly stricken with appendicitis. requires an em- ergency operation to save his life. His condition requires the use of chloroform. a new anaesthetic un- known to the Highlanders. To prove the efficacy of the anesthetic on the doubting Milton. the doctor uses the chloroform on irass in a startling test, and thus is able to complete a successful operation on Tsmmas. As his reward he receives the grateful farmer's assent to Tammas studying medicine in Ed- inburgh. ._ He finally proves his second point also when, during n raging storm, ths doctor is knocked unconscious from a washed uw-sy bridge. In. order to lead tho villagers to Mso- Lure, the dog ovecomes his fear of water and swfitns across the raging stream. It is too late to save the life of tlm COyllrflkflClilS and worn- oilt doctor, but Lass has proved herself, and Tamrnas. with Margltb help, will take MacLures place as the village doctor. ' Edmund Gwenn gives s. mumor- sblo performance as ths indomit- portrayals offered by Tom Drake as the young Tamales. Janet Leigh as Margit, Donald Crisp as the doc- tor's staunch friend Drumsheugh. Rhys Williams as the forbidding Milton and Reginald Owen as the proprietor of the local pu-b. But it is the famous Lassie. of course, around whom most o(,the action centers and this intelligent and lovable do: actor again proves himself the outstanding screen star of his species in s ccmpassionato and irumsn ‘story that will hold your interest ovary moment of the PIME C el door "b , mu“ ..%::""a."I°:...""'":.: “fir: min-moods. ‘ ‘rilfll’ Mr. Howard S.
