"One Heavenly Night," coming to- day to the Majestie Theatre, brought a welcome gift to picture lovers in the person and voice of a lovely English light opera star, Evelyn Laye. Appearing in a richly mounted pro- duction, with distinguished support, un unusual story and melodious music, Miss Laye's screen debut was A romantic comedy with auspicious. music, the picture provides
oppor- tunities for the vocal efforts of both Misa Laye and John Boles in a love episode that, while the outcome
hard to imagine, yet held the interest of a capacity audience to the end. The drama unfolds in dialogue, action and song. The dialogue is fine, the action
well timed and convincing, and the portrayal of the cabaret and night life of Budapest gives frequent occasion for song burats from the entire cast as well as the
