Harbour Light Theatre A Gorge Arliss picture never fails to attract large audiences, and his "Disraeli" is still remembered as an outstanding achievement of the talking screen. In "The Working Man," a First National picture which will be screened at the Harbour Light Theatre to-day, Arliss has what is probably his strongest role since "Disraeli." As the head of a large manufacturing business, Arliss is regarded as somewhat of a dodderer by his own son and by the son and daughter of his former business rival. Actually he is a shrewd and clever business man, and it is he who is called upon to straighten out the affairs of two businesses after the young people have failed. The short subjects include a Traveltalk, a Cinesound Review, and a musical novelty. TTARBOUR LIGHT THEATRE—AX To-day, George Arliss in his Greatest Picture since "Disraeli," "THE WORKING MAN."
