COLMAN BECOMES GENTLEMAN CROOK IN HIS NEW MOVIE
'Road to Paradise/ a Melodrama, Now Features Loretta Young in a Dual Role, Along With Raymond Hatton and Kathlyn Williams, at the Indiana. RONALD COLMAN as that most famous of all gentleman crooks. “Raffle.",'’ cavorts at his adventurous best in a stirring photoplay which comes to Loews Palace today. Samuel Goldwyn presents this United Artists picture as a successor to “Bulldog Drummond.” in which the famous English star perpetuates_his allegiance to detective thrillers. • Raffles” is Colman’s third successive criminal talking film. The first Bulldog Drummond.” revealed Colman in pursuit of criminals. The second. "Condemned,” showed him a convict, held in the trope fastness of Devil's Island. “Raffles,” the ‘hlrd, shows horn as an ama-
teur criminal, desperately trying to elude the law. Kay Francis, she of the dark eyes and the glossy black hair, is Colman's leading lady in the picture. Which, incidentally, will show Colman making love to a brunette for the first time in many years, six to be exact. Blondes there have been —Ann Hauling, Joan Bennett, Vilma Banky, Lily Damita, Lillian Gish and Constance Talmadge, but not one brunette until Producer Goldwyn picked Miss Francis. David Torrence, who was the doughty banker of "Disraeli,” has the role of Inspector McKenzie of Scotland Yard. The veteran Frederick Kerr is the Lord Melrose of the piece, while Alison Skipworth, who has an equal number of the spoken stage's service stripes, is his screen spouse. The story of Raffles’ adventures, told and retold for the last twentyfive years on the stage, in fiction and on the screen, has become so well known that it has made the name of the hero a word in our everyday language. Samuel Goldwyn assigned Sidney Howard to the task of modernizing these legends, to thrill this generation as it did the last. The story, briefly, is that of the rociety burglar, gentleman bom and bred, who robs for adventure, not for profit. Having found the girl of his heart, he commits one last robbery, that of a diamond bracelet, and then swears to follow an upright and honest life. Grave complications develop when his best friend becomes involved in a bad check charge. To Raffles is presented the task of making good the bad check. One last robbery is the only solution. If he fails. Raffles knows that he will forever lose his freedom, his happiness, the girl he loves—everything. But his best friend is helpless. Raffles plunges in—his last crime. On the thrilling story of that f ..ewell burglary. Raffles takes us through the midnight excitement of the robbery, the chase and the capture, the mystery of the fabulous Melrjj.se necklace, a desperate thief intent upon revenge—this an even greater adventure. Then there is the gay social whirl—the silver and crystal finery of a dinner in the great hall of the Melrose castle, the jeweled, gorgeously gowned throng at the Embassy Club. London, and, in its reflection of England, a big j league cricket match, seen on the i screen for the first time. included on the same program will be in "Our Gang" kids comedy, “Teacher's Pet.” the Hearst Metrotone news, and a short musical fantasy, “The Wizard's Apprentice.” The theme of this latest United Artists featurette. produced by William Cameron. Menzies and Dr. Hugo Riesenfeld. is based on the poem by Goethe, distinguished German man of letters, and the music of Dukas, a Frenchman. V a a a FAMOUS BAND NOW AT INDIANA The Indiana is said to be presenting some strikingly good and different entertainment in the way of a crook melodrama, “Road to Paradise." produced by First National. The attraction on the stage this week is Horace Heidt and his Californians direct from their sensational engagement at Monte Carlo in the Publix offering, "A Golden Gate Revue.” Loretta Young is seen in a dual role in “Road to Paradise” and favorites such as Jack Mulhall, Raymond Hatton. George Barraud and Kathlyn Williams. The ingenious story was written by F. Hugh Herbert. and it contains a plot that is packed with surprises, thrills and comedy it is said. Miss Young appears as a wealthy society gLI and also as her twin sister. the ward of two genial crooks. The crooks chance to discover the remarkable resemblance between the girls, and without suspecting the relationship between them plot to have ore steal valuable jewels from the other. The burglar plot goes awry, buffets are fired, and both thrilling and amusing complications ensue, including those in which the hero faffs in love with the wrong girl. On the stage Horace Heidt and his Californians demonstrate their versatility by offering a varied program of popular numbers. In their presentation, they also feature Lobe, an intelligent dog. Mr and Mrs. Ed Resener are at the organ offering a novel solo. A Paramount sound news reel completes the bill. * a a “NUMBERED MEN” NOW AT CIRCLE Anew type of dramatic event was chosen by First National in producing "Numbered Men." which is now showing at the Circle The story is based on a prison mutiny, in which long-term and life prisoners ri.*’.. everything, including their lives to escape jail. A well-known judge said recently, “The jail-break, or co-operative attempt by many men to escape serving sentences, is anew phase of crime development in the United States. These attempts are in most cases directed from the outside, and are as carefully planned as the human mind can imagine. Fortunately they rarely succeed, but it demands the utmost vigilance on the part of guards and wardens to frustrate them." Conrad Nagel. Bernice Claire and Ravmond Hackett are featured. The story which is adapted from Dwight Taylor’s play. “Jail Break," occurs mostly behind the bars. When the prison mutiny starts, the boy is involuntarily drawn into it, although lie ha 1 but a short time before he r can rejoin his sweetheart. Lester Huff is at the organ this week offering a novelty solo entitled "Songs and Smiles." The talking short features on the till include Mickey Mouse In "The
Cactus Kid,” Smith and Dale in “Accidei ts Will Happen,” and a scenic reel, “The Temple of Love.” a a a SONG WRITERS HAVE HITS AT THE APOLLO "Kiss Waltz” and "Hullabaloo,” the two songs which play a prominent part in "Dancing Sweeties," the Warner Brothers and Vitaphonc picture featuring Grant Withers and Sue Carol, which is now playing at the Apollo, were written by two separate teams of composers which represent the best in music. Ai Dubin and Joe Burke, veteran song writers and teammates for fifteen years, are responsible for the beautiful “Kiss Waltz,” which is | destined to take its place among perennial public favorites. Dubin and Burke have written innumerable Vltaphone hits, including “Tiptoe Through the Tulips,” “Paint , ing the Clouds With Sunshine,” | from ‘“Gold Diggers of Broadway,” and also the song hits of the com- ; edy success, "Hold Ev ;rything.” Walter O'Keefe and Bobby Dolan, writers of "Hullabaloo,” are a comparatively young team in years, I but old in point of service, having been responsible for many theme songs and popular hits and the complete score of Warner Brothers and Vitaphone picture, "Sweet Kitty Bellairs,” which has the distinction of containing more songs than any other talking and singing picture to date. a a a OAKIE FILM ON VIEW AT OHIO Jack Oakie, Paramount laughmaker, will be seen in his first starring picture, “The Social Lion,” which is now playing at the Ohio theater. The picture is based on "Marco Himself,” one of Octabus Roy Cohen's most successful novels. “The Social Lion” is said to be a hilariously funny story of a. young would-be pugilist and garage mechanic who gets a place on a country club polo team because of his proficient mallet wielding. He learned to play polo when he was serving an enlistment in the army. After associating with the “400” of the town, he gets high-hat and tries to crash the “inner circle” by means of the popularity he has gained through his polo-playing. This is said to provide a number of amusing situations and clever dialogue. The finale is a happy one for our hero finally realizes that the plain little girl and the plain life are the girl and life for him. Skeets Gallagher is in the role of Oakie’s partner and pal: Mary Brian is the plain little girl and Olive Borden is the ritzy daughter of society who tries to make a sap out of Jack, but fails. Several all-talking sketches and a talking cartoon complete the bill.
