Based on Ben Markson's exciting story which combines romance, rol- licking comedy, rapid fire action and breath-taking thrills, the pic- ture is said to be one of the most tremendous productions ever put out by Warner Bros. Cagney and O'Brien, two seamen, are the bitterest of enemies, Jim- my having joined the navy just for a chance to get even with O'Brien who has knocked him cold in a fistic encounter and stolen his girl, a part played by Dorothy Tree.

Such enthusiastic attention was bestowed by critics all over the country oa Eric Linden, as the am- bitious kid brother of Jjames Cag- ney, and Joan Blondell, as the boy’s sweetheart, that Warner Bros. im- mediately made preparations to bring them together again. “Big City Blues,” it was felt, of- fered both Blondell and Linden even wider scope for their talents than the previous picture had giv- en them. Fundamentally, the story of “Big City Blues” is the story of the whirlwind adventures of a boy and girl from the country thrown together in the maelstrom of New York. Through the stormy, terrifying experiences of the three days that follow their. meeting, everything that happens to them only deepens the interest of Bud and Vida in each other. A cast of experienced Broadway players surrounds Miss Blondell, the star. Among these, besides Eric Lin- den, are Walter Catlett, Lyle Tal- bot, Guy Kibbe, Inez Courtney, Jobyna Howland, Ned Sparks, Eva- lyn Knapp, Humphrey Bogart, Thomas Jackson, Sheila Terry, Grant Mitchell and Clarence Muse. DOOR PRIZE FEVER HITS MIKE’S PLACE The door prize fever has attacked Douglas, according to Mike Pusich, genial proprietor of Mike's Place, night center of the island city, who announced that the beer par- lor across the Channel has selected a novel entrance prize to be award- ed at midnight tonight. Neimi and Edwards, Douglas musicians, will provide music for dancing, Mr. Pusich said. D OF TRIANGLE Paul Lukas and Constance Cummings Are Featured in Coliseum Drama “Man proposes, but woman dis- poses.” Well, ays, in spite of the positive tone of the old proverb Sometimes the woman does both. Often the woman makes all the de- cisions and carries them into ef- fect, leaving the man little to do except agree—or possibly, to dis- agree. Paul Lukas learns this very defi- nitely in “Glamour,” the Universal drama of “the eternal triangle,” which comes to the Coliseum The- ater on Sunday, with Lukas and Constance Cummings in featured roles. In the earlier sequences of the picture Miss Cummings is a chorus girl and Lukas the com- poser of the songs for the musical comedy in which she is to appear— until her sublime assurance causes her to be peremptorily “fired.” Tt is then that she starts to work on Lukas, and reveals herself as such an accomplished promoter that within a short time the song writer is devoting all his talents to her advancement to stardom on the stage, and eventually, at her suggestion, makes her his wife. But the lighter beginning of the screen play gradually gives way to a se- | ries of tragically dramatic situa- tions when another man enters their lives, and their happy mar- riage becomes instead an involved | domestic problem. | ‘‘Glamour,” adapted from Edna Ferber's story, was directed by Wil- liam Wyler, and the cast support- ing Miss Cummings and Lukas in- cludes such favorites as Phillip Reed, Doris Lloyd, Lita Chevret, Alice White, Luis Alberni, Yola d’Avril and Joseph Cawthorn.
