CINEMA NOTES
True friendship that proves itself under a hall of fire and in the face of gay adventure is the theme of the dashing, colourful, and exciting 20th Century Fox picture, "Professional Soldier," which is now showing at the King's and Alhambra Theatres, to DOMESTIC ENGINEEIS, LTD., present Victor McLagien and Freddie Refrigerator Importers and Bartholomew in their first co-starring role.

"Milions Jo the Alr", " "Millions in the Air," the farcical romance which Paramount, has turned out as a gentle jibe at prevailing radio amateur programmes, opened yesterday at the Star Theatre-and-by virtue of its variety, has everything that is needed to make first-class entertainment. From the first to the final gong this picture moves swiftly. Su nany things happen that in use- less for a reviewer to attempt to tell nil, The amateur-hour theme makes it possible for the producers to introduce about a dozen different acts, all suitably fused into the main story, which concerns the romance of young Raxophone player and the daughter of the radio programmie's sponsor. Wendy Barrie, the talented British actress, and John Ioward, a new and refreshing screen personality, have the romantic leads in "Millions in the Air," George Barbier, un questionably one of the finest charac- for actors on stage or screens, is the soap-selling sponsor. And there is no end of comedy in the picture, contri buted mainly by Willie Howard, Davo: Chasen and Benny Baker. Willie Howard is exceptionally well cast as an Italian vegetable peddler with a' yearning to sing "Rigoletto" while Chasen brings one of the stage's funniest episodes his one-man or- chestra-to the picture. All in all, romance intermingles with comedy, and above all, new dancing star- Eleanore Whitney appears in picture. Her dance routines are alone worth your time in "Millions in the

"Boulder Dam" * "Boulder Dam,” production heralded as a drama of thrilling action, and based on the story by Don M. Templin opens to morrow at the Queen's Theatre. The pleture is based on the building of this mighty project, and the lives of the daredevil workmen who blasted their way through solid rock and scaled the walls hundreds of feet, above the river, Death faced these dynamic workers at every turn and arany of their deeds of heroism, de-i picted in this film, will go down in the history of this great undertaking. The pleture is crammed with dynamic drama, daredevil action, herole deeds and thrilling incidents in addition to its romance, Patricia.
