THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE. MONDAY, MAY 28, 1928. The Biggest Laugfi of The Year OH! BABY Is Coming To Spickett’s Palace Tomorrow LAST TWO TIMES TONIGHT 'LAURA LA PLANTE and ; ;JAMES KIRKWOOD ‘in 'the Up-to-Date Flapper Story “BUTTERFLIES IN THE RAIN” Atiractions At Theatres [+ i | SPICY MODERN STORY | SHOWING AT PALACE | i i) Something new in :plry -nmlvm pictures is offered at the Palace, whare “Butterflies in the Rain” is the current feature. This picture opened to a well merited capacity audiénce and Miss Laura La Plante and James Kirkwood kept the crowd gripped from fadein to fadeout. This couple was well-chosen to bear- the histrionic burden of the picture and ‘Edward Sloman was the ideal man to direct. ‘A good story rounds out the trio of es- gentials for the best picture of the month.. Miss La Planté glides through the picture lke a beéautiful comet throwing an aura of fascinating sheen about hersell. The petite, blonde, bedimpled star has never appeared ‘more beautiful or showh herself to be a bettet” actress lhan in “Butterflies in the Rain.” James Kirkwood gives an ad- mirable portrayal of an aristo- cratic Englishman, unaffected by the modern upsetting of conven- tions. He ' mades the perfect idéealist and carried out his part with the perfection of technique that one has come to expect of Kirkwood. An excellent supporting cast in- cludes Dorothy Cummings, Rob- ert Ober, Dorothy Stokes, Edward Davis, Clarence Thompson and Ruby Lafayette.
