e h THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIR[:I, THURSDAY, MAY 3, 1934. ICAPITOL LAST TIME HEADS CAST OF ROMANTIC PLAY Claudette C-;lb—ert, Fredric March Play Leads in ‘Tonight Is Ours’ With Frederic March and Clau- dette Colbert as the stars, “Tonight Is Ours” opened last night at the Capitol Theatre and proved as de- lightful a piece of romanticism as has come this way in-a long time. TONIGHT Fredric MARC Claudette COLBERT - | in NOEL COWARD'S TONIGHT T Wik Y The film is based on a play by Wom“ Noel Coward, author of “Private All’-?u“ufilaykon Lives” and many other outstand- AR ing successes. Therein lies the r ghmmm‘m Qicture son for the brilliance of its dia- logue and the light-hearted gaiety of much of its action. Edwin Justus PREVIEW Mayer, author of “The Firebrand” PONIGHT— and other romantic plays, did the !‘adaptation for the screen. Therein, the reason for its glamorous over- tones. Stuart Walker, adept both in comedy and high romance, has done his usual fine job of direct- ing. As for Miss Colbert and Mar these two extraordinary young play ers have seldom been seen to bett advantage than in the role of lovers, who meet in Paris, are pa ed, and find each other again for a night of love on the night before |the girl's scheduled marriage to another man. They make one of the finest romantic teams on the screen. Secondary roles, too, are brilliantly portrayed by such play- ers as Alison Skipworth, Arthur Byron and Paul Cavanaugh. “Tonight Is Ours” is not a pic- ture to be missed! It is thorough- ’ly delightful! “STORM AT DAYBREAK” WALTER HUSTON, KAY FRANCIS, NILS ASTHER FORD AGENCY (Authorlzed Dealers) P OILS GREASES NOTiCE Applications. ror the position of .’uneau |City Assessor will be received by d !the City Council up to 5 pm, May 4, 1934.
