THE CINEMA
After dinner the gathering turn- ed up at the Roof of the Lido. Before going on to describe. the film I would like to say, something about the arrangements.
Timed to start at 9.30 p.m. the show did not actually get under- way 10.15. The sound was not good, visibility poor and on the the whole the screening of picture was not all that could be desired. Should those responsible for the running of things desire to repeat same in the near future the defects which were found on Saturday night will have to be remedied.
The Fox picture "Under The Pampis Moon" was preceded by a deliciously foolish cartoon which brought forth applause.
The role which Warner Baxter plays is the type in which he rose to popularity.
In the midst of a cast which really supports him he makes of "Cesar Campo" a very human and whole likeable reality, whose hearted happiness is as Infectious as his native faith in his fellow man is alarming
We see him first in the Pampas a cake free soul and after he had almost lost his life in a race in which he had a 100 pesos waged on it we see him wandering around South America in search of his much beloved horse which was stolen away from him after the race
The climax arrives when the ganchor having suffered deception and maltreatment in Buenos Aires, calls in his comrades from the Pampas and metes out some most satisfying Pampas justice...!
The greater part of the story is delectable. His "coeur d'amour was played by Ketti Gallian whose acting will surely find a place in "stardom" ere long.
She sings and hums alluringly as an entertainer in a night club. Incidentally the fare in the night club is far above the average and a dance number entitled "Copra Tango by Veloz and Yolanda captivated
the merits of the audience
There is one weakness in the show and that is that the actors were unable to continue in their South American dialogue through out. Snatches of Americanisms and English were heard now and then. The picture on the whole should please and the scenes" of Fampas life and galety are well reproduced.
After the show the four was cleared and many couples tooy.to it to the strains of music supplied by a string band,--"C. Ta
