Supported by a brilliant cast. Anna Sten, the voluptuous Russian star, comes to the King's Theatre in Emile Zole's widely read story, "Nana," a United Artists produc tion.

"Nana" as Zola pictured her played at love. It was to her an amusing and profitable game. But the "Nana" revealed by Anna Step, Thax taken love seriously, 48
Beriously in fact that the end! of the picture is very dif- lerent to the novel. In the adapta- tion of the book, however, almost none of the colour of the story's period is missed in mounting the tale...
Miss Sten is given an excellent supporting cast. Mae Clarke and Muriel Kirkland play Satin and Mimi, the two street walfs who follow Nana throughout the story,' Lionel Atwill, usually associated
with mystery, plays the role of Col, Andre Muffat, while Phillips Holmes in George.
