QUEEN'S THEATRE.

EXCELLENT TALKIE NOW SHOWING.

}

An effective antidote against. the depression caused by the wet weather can be enjoyed by a visit to the Queen's Theatre where "Children of Pleasure" is at pre- sent being shown. This is an all- talking. all-dancing M. G. M. picture which has all the in- gredients of really bright and entertaining fare. It is a pity that its brief season closes to-day,! for it is a film distinctly above the average.

SHARE PRICES.

"TO-DAY'S ·· QUOTATIONS,

The following is the list of local share quotations issued to-day:

Apart from the attractiveness of the song and dance bits and some really wonderful stage scenes, there is a good plot in the story, which maintains interest to the very end. Lawrance Gray has the lead and opposite him play's Helen Johnson, a pretty blonde who should be heard of more in the talkies. Wynne Gibson is also extremely good, whilst all the other parts are în capable hands. The dialogue is easy to follow and there is some! smart repartee, whilst the low. comedy parts are really good.

There are three other features in the programme, the news reel including some fine pictures of Niagara Falis taken from a baby airship.

HANGCHOW BANK ROBBERY.

CINEMA NOTES.

NORMA SHEARER IN "THE DIVORCEE.".

The so-called divorce problem has had many expositions at the hands of dramatists and scenarists but perhaps never before from the "The of amazing viewpoint Divorcee," Norman Shearer's new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer talking vehicle, which opens on Friday at the Queen's Theatre.

Remaining distinctly human, with no tinge of the academic, the casts a new light on picture modern divorce, and, incidentally, affords Miss Shearer one of the most startling, as well as the most charming roles of her career.

She plays the role of a woman who, convinced of her husband's lapses into error, herself admits promiscuous living to meet him on a common ground. Follows the divorcee, and finally surprising denouement in which a powerful dramatic climax shows up divorce from a new sociological aspect.

Chester Morris plays opposite Miss Shearer and gives an in- tensely human characterization as the husband. Robert Montgomery and Conrad Nagel, as the divor-

"Rio Rita" To-inorrow,

When Bebe Danields dons her brilliant Spanish wedding dress at the opening of "Rio Rita" at the Central Theatre to-morrow, the "something old, something new; something borrowed, and some- thing blue" will be seen in colour.

For a large portion of Radio Pictures' all-talking. all-musical version of the Ziefeld hit is in technicolour.

The brilliant colours of the tropics. Mexican costumes, palm trees, the colour of a sunset on the Rio Grande, and the wealth of shades and tones in the costumes of the large cast all are seen in their natural colours.

Miss Daniels was especially en- thusiastic over the opportunity to make colour sequences in her first- all talking picture. Not only will the fans have a chance to hear her voice, but for the first time the beautiful colouring of the exotic Bebe will be seen.
