"Telegraph" Film Correspondent "THINGS TO COME." King's Theatre, this week

Tremendous, awe-inspiring, challeng ingly imaginative and technically magni- ficent-but, viewed in the light of sheer entertainment, far too prolix in its argu mentative vision of the future.

This is a fair estimate, I think, of the wonderful interpretation of Mr. H. G. Wells's solemnly speculative story, written by himself direct for the screen, "Things To Come."

Acting, trick photography, scenic lavishness of the most resourceful and suggestive kind, and music rising and falling in rhythm that is clamant or delicate as the circumstances demand, are combined in a spectacle that in some respects Is beyond anything the screen has seen,

THE WAR OF 1940

Mr. Wells places the beginning of the war that is to devastate humanity as early as the year 1940. He makes the warning come at Christmas lime.

The scurrying populace of Everytown is intent on its seasonal preparations, and the sudden contrast' between the carol singing jollity and the realisation

that the war has actually opened from the air with- out warning is conveyed with a high sense of drana.

оп

After remaining under suspicion for over a fortnight, 21 of the Chinese scized were released yesterday. Several others have, it is understood, been previously released.

It is believed that at least 20 suspects will be banished from the Colony, and a decision regarding them is expected to be reached by the Executive Council this week.
