PLAZA THEATRE
"GOOD-NIGHT VIENNA."
Jack Buchanan, who was in "Mau of Alay
fair" and "Alonto Carlo" some timo ago, again appears in "Good-night Vienna," a hiiocißtular story of the gay and colourful file ut Vieuua, the rom>ut:c capital, which is to commence a season ut tho I'laza Theatre to-ioorrow. The film has an enchanting background /of Viennese music that sets the story off to its best advantage. Holt Marvoll and George l'osford, who are responsible tor the story, have made a cobesivo talc, with none of the improbabilities that frequently occur in productions where music and song aro brought in without regard to credibility. Air Buchanan takes the role of Captain Max. of the Austrian cavalry, whose father was an eccentric old general, to whom the word o£ tho Kmperor was law. The captain fell in love with * pretty flower-seller, but tho iimperor "commanded" that ho should marry a countess. Just at this time Austria went lo war with Servia, tho culmination of which saw tho Kmperor dead and the status of the Austrian aristocracy considerably reduced. Tho love story of Max and tho flower-girl, i taken by Anna Neagle, a newcomer to the [ films, makes delightful entertainment.
