"To Oblige a Lady" an all-British picture which is coming to-morrow to the Queen's Theatre has an ex- ceptionally strong cast.

She is arnusingly supported by highly effec tive performers including Warwick Ward, Mary Newland, Haddon Mason, Gladys Jennings and James Carewe.
The story was written by that pro- lific popular author, Edgar Wallace. Novelty of conception, hilariously funny situations, excellent acting by the whole of the One cast and spark.

"Over The Hill" is, beyond doubt,. far and away the Angst human drama since the advent of talkion. A com- ploto modernized version of a classic of American poetry, it runs liko music across the heartstrings.

"Over the HIN.”
Perhaps most astounding of all, however, is the unbelievable perform- anco given by Mae Marsh.Returning to the screen, which she left twolve years ago for motherhood, Miss Marsh opens the true depths of a mother's heart for all to seo. She lives the throbbing heart of motherhood on the screen,
