"ONE NIGHT OF LOVE"

FINE FILM AT THE QUEEN'S

Without question, one of the very finest films over seen in Hongkong is Columbia's offering of "One Night of Love, which opened at the Queen's Theatre From all standpoints yeproduction, casting, and, above all else, musical excellence it is superlatively good. Grace Moore has the leading role, as an operatic singer, and her wonderful voleo permeates the whole picture. The film roaches its climax in her singing of One Fine Day," from "Madame Butterfly," in which she is simply superb, Tullio Car- minati plays the male lead with great success.

This film is unhesitatingly recom- mended; to miss it would be the height of folly,
