"PARTNERS IN CRIME."

WALLACE BEERY AND RAYMOND HATTON.

GRAND THEATRE, TO-DAf. A comedy and a western film are the two main attractions at the Grand Theatre this The comedy is "Partners in Crime." in which Wallace Beery and Raymond Hatton co-star, a delightfully clever burlesque on the American underworld and the police methods of coping with crime. Though the storv is a pure comedy, and very thrilling •withal, Wallace Beery and Raymond Hatton are the whole show. These two comedians first attracted attention in "Behind the FronV following that with "We're In the Navy Now" and "JSow We're in the Air." They keep their audience in a simmer of merriment, for thev are genuinely, funny, and have a technique all their own. Mary Brian is leading lady. The second picture is Zane Grey's story, "Cnder the Tonto Rim," with Mary Brian and Richard Arlen in the leads. It is a storv of gold-mining days in the West, told in Grey's exciting style, with plenty of humour and romance. The tenth chapter of "The Pirate of Panama" will be screened, and a programme o£ supports, including gazettes, short comedies, and cartoons. The box plans are at The Bristol Piano Compan-.-, where seats may be reserved.
