Good Play Following

"ONE NIGHT OF LOVE

Columbia's "musical romance, bad bidding. Although of course One Night of Love," featuring the there are many instances where the famous Opera singer And beauty, fulfilment of a normal contract is Grace Moore, Is, one of the beat made difficult and consequently musicales produced in the Colony." necessitates brilliant play, because of a bad break in one or more suite, titore are also a great many cases where the difficulty, and hence the brilliancy, are the result of reach ing the wrong contract,

Miss Moore enékánth – both as actress and singer, while the Italian Count, Tullio Carminati, is superb as the teacher, and Lylo Talbot, Luis Alberni, Jessie Ralph, and Mona Barrie offer delightful jcharacter studies. The

The storytella of a young girl how who is heard singing in a cheap cafe by Guillo Monteverdi (Tullio Carminati), the greatest teacher, of singing in Europe. He offers to train her for Opera-on one condi- tion-that she does not fall in love with him. The inevitable happens the girl falls madly in love with her master, but for the sake of (her career, dare not mention it.

The climax in which Miss Moore sings "One Fine Day from "Madame Butterfly" to the man who has taught her everything, and whose inspira- tion helps her on her great oc [casion, is one of the most poignant- ly beautiful endings ever seen in a film.
