Veidt is at his best, both as the heroic defender of our democratic, principles and in the briefer role of the cold-blooded representative of "The Party." Ann Ayars, who made her screen debut in "Dr. Kildare's Victory," gives an incisive, intelligent performance as the agent forced into betrayals that make her heartsick; while important supporting roles are lavorfully played by Martin Kosleck, Dorothy Tree, Marc Lawrence, Frank Reicher and Sidney Blackmer.

And one of the first to get on the bandwagon is my friend, Gregory Ratoff, who left Monday for Chicago and New York with a cameraman to catch some of the bigger acts for the Columbia picture, "Through Thick and Thin." In fact, Greg says this movie will be a glorified vaudeville show with a strong dramatic story, and although the papers aren't actually inked to borrow Don Ameche from 20th for the opus, Don is the hero Ratoff has his I.udwlc Frank Rrlcher Uorothy Tre Ivan Simpson William Tannen Martin Koalerk Mare I.avrrnr Midney Rlackner Kurt Klrhlen -Jno Air Ho Arnold Mllbar Brenner Moroni ttlarn Uruver Hlalna MrHenry rterra Watkln By Mildred Martin Jules Dassin, still another from up-and-comins shorts department, moves Into the feature field and acquits himself brilliantly with the direction of "Nazi Agent," lascmating story of a desperate mas querade, which opened yesterday at tne capitoi. wfh RICHARD WHORF GEORGE TOBIAS GENE LOCKHART ALAN HALE BETTY BREWER An excellent cast headed bv the always expert Conrad Veidt, and good material that has logic behind even Its more fantastic episodes, has been superlatively handled by 28- year-old Dassin.

I never caw fao such lovebirds in my life as Hedy and George. Then their romance was really serious in the beginning, for they had reservations at Las Vrsas and George's brother flew down to be there for the wedding. Then something happened.
