LISTENING

By Danny Raskin



MISS DINA HALPERIN, who
is appearing for the first time as
guest star at Littman's Theater,
is truly a great performer and
every person, young or old, with
or without the full knowledge
of Yiddish, should make plans
to see her:, She has the same
qualities which prompted a
critic, years ago, to say of Ethel
Barrymore: "Whether the play
was good or bad is unimportant.
Her acting was so superb that
few of the audience realized
there were others on the stage."
Miss Halperin is possessed with
a delightful personality and • is
extremely enchanting.
* * *
WHAT MAKES Miss Halperin
all the greater is the fact that
she can act without acting—
actually living the part she por-
trays. • . . Off-stage her per-
sonality is one of sincere charm,
Y•ith a lovable character that
enters the hearts of all who
may be in her company.

VERA MARETSKAYA

Detroit movie goers will thrill
to the dramatic and emotional
scenes of "No' Greater Love" now
showing at the Cinema Theater.
This truly great story of a
woman who took the war into
her own hands is the first Rus-
sian film completely spoken in
English. It is a stirring drama
and_ a personal tribute to the
"unknown woman" who has
worked, prayed, sacrificed and
fought in defense of her country.
"No Greater Love" is a story
of a valiant Russian woman lead-
ing her fellow villagers in a
ceaseless, unswerving counter at-
tack against the Nazis who killed
her husband and baby before her
eyes.
The one thing which stands
out above all else in "No Greater
