GRETA GARDO IN "INSPIRA-;
TION."
In her new talkie at the Queen's Theatre Greta Garbo had nù need to exort herself to be accepted convin- cingly as the inspiration of the fore- most artists, sculptors, poeta andl compusers of Paris. She is all of that, more glamorous than before, more alluring, mora elusive..
The story has a racy, modern bock- ground and is based upon a theme of tragle sacrifice with Robert Mont- gomery, as the provincial lover for whom Yvonne, the heroine, turns her romantic worki lopsy-turvy,
Montgomery, in his initial appear- ance with the exotic star, registere splendidly and is certain to find him. self more popular than over by reason of his performance. Lewis Stone, without whom no Garbo pleture seems complete, adds another superb char- acterization to his glowing record and Aforjorie Rambeau of the stagé ron- ders an outstanding depletion of a somewhat passe demi-mondaine with a passion for cocktails and composers. Others perfectly cast include Judith Vosselli, Beryl Mercer, John Miljan, Edwin Maxwell, Oscar Apfel, Joan Marsh, Zelda Sears, Karen Morley. Gwen Lee, Paul McAllister, Arthur Hoyt and Richard Tucker.
"Beducing" at the Queen's.
In "Reducing," the new Marie Dressler-Polly Moran Metro-Goldwyn. Mayer eumedy, which will open to- morrow at the Queen's Theatre, there is no delay to the start of the fun.
It begins with the departure of Marie Dressler, her postman-husbami, Lucien Littlefield; her daughter, Anita Page, nnu her two sons, for a visit with her sister, Polly Moran, wealthy New York benuty parlour proprietress.
The laughs start with adventures at a stations ticket office, and then in a Pullman, where Marie has engaged une upper for both herself and Anftu. The guifawn continue when the group arrive in New York. Mischief on the part of the boys in the Grand Central Station starts a wave of laughs which washes them all right into Polly's apartment. Grins golour are reserved for the next sequence, laid in the beauty parlours, where Marie becomes Polly's assistant, and Anila the enshier.
All comedies must have a plot pull the laughs together, and វា
Rulucing" the plot concerns the tangled love affairs of Anita Pago and her New York cousin, Sally Eilera. The men in the case are Willian "Buster Collier, Jr., elever son of a clever father, and the capable Wil- liam Bekewell, direct from his su emmars in "Pais" and "All Quiet on the Western Frunt,"
"Reducing was fined by "Chuck" Riesner, who directed Miss Dressler and Mina Moran in their previous great hit, "Caught Short."
