CINEMA TRADE NOTICES
OUR LITTLE GIRL
Glorious Shirley Temple, whose natural art is second to none, and
who has, in the words of Irvin 8. Cobb, "made more people happy and made more children laugh than any child your age in the history of the world." is here again.
Her new Fox Film picture. "Our Little Girl," starta its engagement to-day at the King's Theatre. It is called her greatest!
... This is said to be Shlriey's most
touching picture. She plunges into an emotional adventure that sings in the heart as she bravely meets a bewildering crisis while those who are nearest and dearest to her grope in the shadows of misunderstanding.
Shirley's brave smile revives a waning love, when she pleads for her mother to return, and runs away from home to reunite.. her parents.
"Our Little Girl" is said to have appeal for young and old.
For the young in heart as well as th years, there is a thrilling circus sequence. Producer Edward But- cher spared no expense in bring- ing a complete circus, big tent, wild animals, elephants, and all "Poodies" Hanneford, world-fumed
crown and rider, has an exciting act, clowning, riding and falling. Other circus celebrities seen here are "The Clarkonians" in a swing- ing act, and the clowns Hambone, Dumbell, Smiling Ban:bo.
