Laura Hope Crows, Guina RKko” ‘Williams RADIO Picture _ Directed by William Seiter from the novel by John Wells . Merian C. Cooper, executive producer. ) GORDON OF GHOST CITY ‘ — CAST PLAYERS WHO RESEMBLE BOOK FIGURES Picture Scheduled for Last Saturday Will Show at Coliseum Tonight By casting players answering ac- curately to the written descriptions in John Wells’ novel and retaining its unusual plot dvve]bpments. RKO-Radio Pictures believes it has evolved a sprightly hour of screen enjoyment for Coliseum Theatre patrons who will see “Rafter Ro- mance,” co-featuring Ginger Rog- ers, Norman Foster and George Sidney, which opens tonight. Mary Carroll and Jack Bacon are struggling Greenwich Village resi- dents whose poverty forces them to share an attic room together. Without knowing each other, Jack, a night watchman, occupies the quarters during the day, and Mary uses them at night. Strangely, they become acquaint- ed in the corner delicatessen, but without learning their participation in a mutual home. Eventually, Jack takes Mary to his home—her home —and then the fireworks begin. Miss Rogers and Foster make their second co-appearance in “Raf- ter Romance”; their first was in RKO-Radio’s “Professional Sweet- heart.” Willlam Seiter directed {rom a screenplay by Gleny Tryon, Sam Mintz and H. W. Hapemann. This picture was scheduled for last Saturday but the film'did not arrive until yesterday. e WOOD FOR SALE Block wood and klindling. Phone 358. ! —adv.

It is undoubtedly the .greatest contribution to the screen Mr. Arliss has ever made, not excepting | “Disraeli,” which is most resem- bles, or “The Millionaire” or “The Working Man.” Here is the most skillful performance this greatest of living actors has yet contributed to either stage or screen. Here is the finest cast ever assembled for an Arliss production. Here, in short, is an amazing drama, spec- tacularly produced, maginificently staged and dramatically sound. A single incident in the long and singularly exciting career of the great French poet-philosopher is used as a dramatic background for this remarkable film. In this Mr. Arliss has followed the method he found so successful in his immortal “Disraeli.” About that one incident ! has been drawn all the drama of the times, all the gorgeous panoply and extravagance of the court of Louis XV, all the exciting intrigue which centered in the boudoir of Madame Pompadour, played by Doris Kenyon. It is thrilling, reck- less, beautifully mannered melo- drama the like of ich has not come out of Hollywood before. THE VIC ON WEDNESDAY P. M.
