"Never love your husband excess; chronic aderation will |drive him into the arms of another woman". So Irene Dunne's friends' tell her in R.K.O.-Radio's comedy- drama, "This Man Is Mine,” now showing at the King's Theatre. But far from heeding their advice) she even trusts him into tempta-. tion as a drastic means of insur- ing his loyalty. only to discover that her friends are right.

How she manoeuvres to win back his love forms the basin of one of the most satirical situa- tions shown on the screen, and when she does Miss Dunne is stamped as a woman who is not ļafraid to fight for the rights and for the love of the man she loves. Supporting Mise Dunne in the cast are Ralph Bellamy, Constance Cummings, Sidney Balckmer, Kay Johnson, Charles Starrett, Vivian Tobin and Loula Mason.
