It is the Cinematic Play transferred in its entirety from the original T^ stage play written by OSCAR WILDE. It is an already TRIED and PROVEN winner in New Zealand, winnmg the highest critical praise ever accorded a Motion Picture in the *N Z. Herald’ since the inception of talking pictures. Scheduled for release next January, it was specifically brought into release this month by the AVON to become the social highlight of the current Season.

“THE JOY OF ALL FROM 8 to 80, THIS GAY, SPARKLING TECHNICOLOUR COMEDY ENTERTAINMENT HAS EQUALLY FASCINATING APPEAL TO THE GAY YOUNG BLADE AND HIS FEMININE SOCIAL SOPHISTICATE AS IT HAS TO MOTHER, FATHER, AND ALL THE REST OF THE FAMILY THAT MAKE UP HEARTH AND HOME. PRODUCED BY ANTHONY ASQUITH, WHO GAVE YOU ‘QUIET WEDDING,’ ‘THE WINSLOW BOY,’ PYGMALION,’ and 'THE BROWNING VERSION.’ ” "Its rich, joyous comedy scores laughs from folks of every age and every station of life, providing a genuine contribution to family happiness seldom attained by a motion picture. In addition it is certainly the most NOVEL presentation ever to grace a screen, for on November 21st the curtain will rise to an atmosphere of ‘THEATRE’ not before experienced in Christchurch to reveal this most brilliant piece of British production yet seen in the wittiest comedy in any language. With thousands of theatregoers in Christchurch, KerridgeOdeon recently won a highly-coveted prestige for theatrical presentation of ‘ICE FOLLIE’ in this city. Jealous of such prestige, ‘THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST’ is proof that we are applying it equally to our motion picture interests to again justly honour our claim ‘FROM THE GREATEST ON THE STAGE TQ THE GREATEST ON THE SCREEN.’ ” Advance Bookings May Now be Made at D.I.C.
