PARAMOUNT THEATRE

“She Married Her Boss” In a film packed with riotous comedy and occasional touching romance, backed by the humdrum life of a departmental store magnate, Claudette Colbert tops her list of successes in “She Married Her Boss,” which began a welcome returu season at the Paramount Theatre yesterday. Miss Colbert is given every opportunity in this film to display her piquant charm and undoubted screen ability. She is strongly supported by her male lead and “seconds,” one of whom, Raymond Walburn in the role of a butler, steals the latter part of the picture. Michael Bartlett, who plays Miss Colbert’s rejected suitor, also scores, while nine-year-old Edith Fellows “walks off” with much of the. picture in a most difficult role, 'which she plays with amazing ability. There is no doubt she has a great future. Melvyn Douglas, who plays opposite Miss Colbert, turns on some fine work as a business idagnate who thinks of nothing else but his work. Jean Dixon, Miss Colbert's “hard-boiled” girl friend and the matchmaker of the picture, keeps the audience in fits with her smart repartee and never-ending teasing of the leading lady. It is a first-class picture. Accompanying it there is a series of most interesting featurettes.
