WINS LAUGHS.
Edna May Oliver brings fresh laughs to the screen as the overpowering matriarch, Lady Catherine de Bourgli, in the fihnisation of Jane Austen’s delicious comedy of five girls in search of a husband, “Pride and Prejudice.” Greer Garson and Laurence Olivier are co-starred in the new hit with the cast of headliners also featuring Mary Boland, Maureen O’Sullivan, Ann Rutherford and Frieda Jncscourt under the direction of Robert Z. Leonard.
play, the new film features Allan Jones, Martha Raye, Joe Fenner, Rosemary Lane, Irene Hervey, Charles Butterworth, Alan Mowbray, Erie Blore and Samuel S. Hinds. Deriving its humour by placing twentieth century comedy styles in the background of Greece 2500 years ago, the picture is said to attain new heights in unique comedy entertainment.
