PRETTY BABY, screen play by Everett Freeman and Harry Kurnitz, from a story by Jules Furthman and John Klorer directed by Bretaigne Windust produced by Mr. And beyond this, there's nothing more to tell you, except that Miss Drake is tiresomely distraught in a role against which the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Women should complain that Edmund Gwenn, excellent actor that he is, is a bore as the old man, and that Zachary Scott and Dennis Morgan act like idiots as the advertising men.On the stage at the Strand are the Three Stooges, the Weavers, Florian Zabach, the Maxellos and the "Harvest Moon Ball" winners. And finally, after lots of confusion and slapstick of the most nonsensical sort, it is revealed that the baby is a phoney, but a spontaneous romance is not.The only reason we have outlined this plot in considerable detail is to demonstrate that it is really as infantile as we say. (The situation is loaded, you see.)Well, it goes on and on in that fashion, with the old man beseeching a peek at his vacant-eyed toy-store namesake, the young lady wondering what to do and the young men huffing and puffing to get an okay on a new ad campaign. And, of course, this ad agency is headed by a couple of aggressive young men who also are attractive and susceptible. (Anyone who, at this point, cannot figure who the old man is should go to nursery school.)So, of course, the old fellow, incognito, begins an elaborate campaign to endow his mysterious namesake, and his first move is to command a better job for the baffled young lady at the advertising agency-his own advertising agency-where she works.

She tells him, with some elaborate flattery of the manufacturer, whom she has never met. And one day, while riding on the subway, she meets a grumpy but tolerable old man who becomes interested in the baby and casually asks its name. She names it Cyrus Baxter Douglas, after a lordly manufacturer of baby foods. The solicitude of her fellow passengers is amazing beyond any words.But, being a whimsical creature, the young lady also gives her doll a name. She wraps a $2 doll baby in a blanket and carries it in her arms. This one, produced by Warner Brothers, appears to have sprung from a mind as whimsically creative as that which conceived the Toidy Doll.Let us describe it briefly: A young lady, whom Betsy Drake plays, figures out a novel deception for getting courtesy on a crowded subway train. A mild wave of infantalism seems to be sweeping the screen, the latest evidence of which is an item called "Pretty Baby" at the Strand.
