The Stadio Murder Mystery " Never before have mystery stopies been so popular and The Studio Murder Mystery will do much to sustain and increase that interest. The all-talking picture opened at the Central Theatre last night for a three days' run.
From
the first breath-taking scenes in the dark, shadowy studio, threatening the" lives, of six of Hollywood's most interesting per sonages... The Studio Murder Mystery
holds the interest at a high tension that is only relieved when the final climax reveals the solution of the "clever plot. --Many mystery stories have gripped the public imagination but none more thoroughly than The Studio Murder Mystery in sparkling action, and thrilling dialogue.
The plot and setting of the story give plenty of opportunity for ab- serving the processes used in the production of all-talking picturës, The sequences, taken on actual sound-stages, are intensely interest ing to all who have observed the re- sults of the new era in motion pictures from the outside. This is
inside stuff" worth seeing.
