KILBIRNIE KINEMA
“Mutiny on the Bounty,” which comes to the Kilbirnie Kinema to-day, cannot be compared to any other film achievement, It is sea drama as it actually took place a hundred and fifty years ago, a true chapter from maritime history that resulted.in a great reform among .all ehips of the sea and which eliminated for all time the brutal treatment men who go to eea expected and suffered. Captain Bligh is relived in “Mutiny on the Bounty” by Charles Laughton, who makes of the character a ruthless and harsh disciplinarian. Fletcher Christian, the master’s mate, comes to us in Clark Gable’s finest role. Those throughout the world who have read the book will agree that Gable as Christian, leader of the mutineers, could not have been a better choice.
