The hero is Charles Farrell, formerly of Broadway, whose cap- tivating way with the other sex would make of any picture a great

success.

The screen siren, Myrna Loy,- weaves her sinister way through the plot in a part particularly suit. ed to her. Fortunately she is not allowed to steal the picture! Ellssa Landi sees to that!

The picture is replete with dramatic situations, one of which Is developed when the young American airman (Charles Far-

rell) finds himself facing a court- martial and his sweetheart (Elissa Landi) death as a spy. This lat- ter little bit is no doubt, due to some of Myrna Loy's intrigues.

We expect crowded houses at the King's at every performance.

deliciously, and evokes many amo- tional thrills. Its entertainment value is a foregone conclusion with the plot revolving around efforts to take a wild and tempestuous beauty from a primitive country and fit her into the cold, cultured and sophisticated atmosphere of zociety. In such a situation there is bound to be a lot of excitement. Ben Lyon and Raquel Torrès play the lending roles.
