Going even beyond the light touches she revealed in the prev- | ious comedy, Garbo in her new role | goes all-out in a comedy portrayal | which has her singing, doing a bril- liant rhumba, wearing a new ultra- modern hairdress, and appearing for the first time in a bathing suit. | The role places Garbo in the situation of a woman who is on the verge of losing her husband only a short time after he has married her. A New York pub- lisher, Lawrence Blake (Douglas) had met and married the lovely ski intructress, Karin Borg (Garbo), while on a vacation at a winter resort. Returning to New York on business soon after the wedding, he| falls into the hands of an alluring playwright, Griselda Vaughan (Con- | stance Bennett). When Karin fol- | lows Lawrence to New York and‘ sizes up the situation, she hides her real identity and masquerades &s her “twin ter,” Katherine. She contrives a meeting with her hus- | band and his perplexity at the similarity between the “sisters” re- sults in a series of highly divert- ing episodes. In the newsreel accompanying this film at the Capitol Theatre are pictures of the bombing of Dutch Harbor, released by the Navy.
