Jack Hulbert and Cicely Court- acidge! What a glorious comedy team. The King's Theatre, in show- ing their latest film "Jack's the Boy" next Sunday, and it be guaranteed that you will enjoy this Jolly picture even more than "Sunshine Susle".
The story Kives them every opportunity of raising laughs and when you see Jack Hulbert in the role of P. C. Brown getting the traffic in a hopeless tangle while on point duty; chaning a crook, in a baby Austin car with his head and shoulder pro- truding through the roof; following the same erook into Madame Tus raud's and then arreating a WRX Agure instead of the thief; to name but a few of the screamingly funny incidents, you know what a treat is in store for you.

"Red Bust"
Place two such magnetic personulit- jes as Clark Gable and Jean Harlow together on the screen. Give them the sensuous and exciting background of Cochin China. Surround them with such supporting players as Gene Raymond, Mary Aator, Donald Crisp and Tully Marshall. Give them the astute, finished direction of Victor Fleming. You are bound to have a good pleture. And that's just what you have in "Red Dust" which the Queen's opens on Sunday

Miss Harlow comes through with the most convincing portrayal she has yet attempted. An the loose-moralled Vantine, born to the tropics, she shows a range of chiotional ability which surpassed even her recent triumph in "Red Eleaded Woman."

The plot of "Red Dast" revalves about the dramatic triangle which resulta when a young engineer brings his wife to a rubber plantation settle- ment. The plantation's overacer, al- ready involved with one girl, is now caught in a compromising situation with the wife of the engineer. The outcome of this crisis anker for narrative containing more than the average share of suspense and stir- ing occurrences.
