ST. JAMES THEATRE London of the picturesque period just prior to the turn of the century comes to screen life in “An Ideal Husband,” starring Paulette Goddard and currently screening at the St. James Theatre. “An Ideal Husband,” based on Oscar Wilde’s famed comedy hit, mirrors the glittering society, political intrigue and social rivalry of London of the period. It tells the gay and exciting story of bewitching, beautiful Mrs Cheveley, played by Paulette Goddard, who throws high society into a dither when *she embarks on a ruthless campaign of blackmail aimed at pushing a shady financial deal through Parliament, and on a more personal basis, at forcing one of London’s most fabulous bachelors into a trip to the alter with her.
