Vilma Banky’s voice is heard for the first time on the speaking screen in “This is Heaven,” her newest starring picture which comes to the Capitol thgater on Wednesday for three days. Samuel Goldwyn's “Huu- garian Rhapsody” is one of the few foreign born picture stars to be able to keep her place in the. screen firmament in this day of talking pic- tures. Stage training in Vienna bz- fore she came to this country and a naturally beautiful speaking voice combine to make her dialogue per- formances more than satisfactory. Most of the cast supporting Miss Banky in “This Is Heaven"” have had stage experience. James Hall, lead- ing man, is a product of the New | York stage, and TFritzi Ridgeway, 1\\\Ih the most important character role of the picture, is a veteran of vaudeville and stock.
