"GRAND HOTEL”-QUEEN'S THEATRE.
Greta Garbo, in the part of the Russian dancer Grusinskaya, dominates the rest of the brilliant, {cast In Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's latest success "Grand Hotel," the screen version of Vicki Baum'd novel, the current attraction at the Queen's Theatro,
"Grand Hotel" is a masterpiece of screen melodrama, lavishly pro- duced, skilfully directed and mag- nificently acted, and is a film every- one should see.
Greta Garbo gives a magnificent and magnetic performance which rank as one of her greatest roles. Joan Crawford makes a capital Fiammchen, the conscienceless typist, and Wallace Beery an excel: lent Prayaing. Lionel Barrymore's impersonation of the downtrodden little clerk Kringelein, is easily the most notable a truly delightful piece of characterisation. John Barrymore in the youthful rolę of the Baron, also gives an accom- plished performance.
