"YES, MR. BROWN."
"Yes, Mr. Brown" has proved in England and also America to be easily Jack Buchanan's most popular film since "Monte Carlo," and now he has gone back to the beautiful Cote d'Azur for the exteriors of his next film, "That's a Good Girl." In "Monte Carlo," the Riviera scenes were "faked" at Hollywood, but in this new British film the whole unit has been transferred to the sunny south for filming. Roughly this is the story: An impecunious young man is obliged to go to the South of France to' evade his creditors and on the chance of earning a fortune. He takes two friends with him, the roles played by William Kendall and Anthony Hollis. He is trailed by a female detective, who in real life is none other than Elsie Randolph. As naturally may be expected, hilarious and embarrassing complications follow, in which a pretty girl, the role played by Dorothy Hyson, and a "jealous stage star, Vera Pearce, all take part. Vera Pearce, by the way, has definitely "arrived" in the talkies, as the result of her comedy and brilliant burlesque dancing in "Yes, Mr. Brown." Thus another Australian makes good on the screen.
