At Their Funniest

Considering the time propitious for a burlesque on the current, trend of historical and costume pictures. Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey will star in "Cockeyed. Cavallers their latest funfilm coming to the King's Theatre to- morroy in which they satirize the Middle Ages,

Modern comedy, melody and pulchritude set against the medie- val era provide the hilarity of "Cockeyed Cavallers." The story is told in rhythmic dialogue where- In each sound, song, dance and word synchronizes with the action All of the melodies and routines become part of the story.

The film revolves about the ad- ventures of two highwaymen of gore portrayed by Wheeler and Woolsey. They are riding the rods of a regal stage-coach when they encounter Mary Ann disguised as a boy to evade a 'forced marriage to the Duke of Weskit. They take her under their wings, and even-

TRADE SHOW

"Viva Villa!" Opening To-day

VIVA VILLA!, Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer's eagerly awaited produc- Lon with Wallace Beery in the starring role, was highly praised by the Motion Picture Herald. (American Trade Magaalne) after a trade show held in Hollywood. The review in its entirety fol- 'lows:--

"Here's the material from which showmanship naturals are made. Pancho Villa, 20th Cen- tury Mexican Robin Hood, gla- morous, glorious, terrifying, Boy and man; peon, avenger, bandit. soldier, general, president; the worshiped Idol of his followers- hated scourge of his enemies. The picture is produced on epic scope. crammed with the colour, punch and thrill of the man, and his carcer; a subject as fresh and ex- citing as it was in the days when villa rode.

“It is based on a novel by Edg- cumb Pinchón and O. P. Stade, and the screen play written by Ben Hecht, noted för his vigro- ons realism is in FRONT PAGE, and SCARFACE, Hecht has em- bellished historical fact with the

appealing sweep of legend. For the screen has been evolved a 10- mance of adventure, a saxa of fervid patriotism, heartless cruel ty, tender chivalry. The story of a man and his amazing raids, of a man who knew and married many women, but loved only onę, of a man whose flaming spirit re-created a nation.

"Wallace Beery is Villa; the role fits him just as did that of Butch. in THE BIG HOUSE and THE CHAMP The cast is composed entirely of familiar screen names. listing Leo Carrillo, Fay Wray, Stuart Erwin, Donald'· Cook, George Stone, Joseph Schildkraub, Katherine DeMule (CB.'s daugh- ter, making her screen debut), " Henry B. Walthall, Francis Bush- man, Jr., and Henry ‘Armettä in support. The picture was inade almost in its entirety in the lo- cales that Villa rode to fame. Its bigness is demonstrated by the marching thousands, barefoot, ragtail revolutionists, men and women who followed their idol." There's a mighty thrill in every line of VIVA VILLAĪ”
