Modern adventure and knightly lore are offered by the new picture in the continuous programme t the Star Theatre to-day "The Boob, which has been adapted to the screen from the story "Don Quixoto, Jr," by Kenneth Clarke.
Emulating the lordly knights of the days of chivalry, the hero rides away on being repulsed in love to prove to the lady of his dreama that he is deserving of her regard. Presenting love, thrills and comedy, his adventures make a very entertaining picture."
George K. Arthur, a rising young player, is excellent as the love lorn youth, and Gertrude Olmsted makes a charming sweetheart. The fun is provided by Charles Murray in a typical comedy role.
