TUDOR THEATRE
It is pleasant to discover that there are sufficient discerning and appreciative filmgoers in Wellington to ensure 'The Little Foxes” a third week in the capital. This remarkable picture is transferred to the Tudor Theatre today. Bette Davis plays the leading part in a, film that is an unfinished symphony tn prose and picture, a film that tells enough to provoke, but not enough to let the audience forget it for days to come. "The Little Foxes,” from the play which is still running ou Broadway, is the story of a woman with frightening ambitions. Nothing—not even the forfeited love of her only child or the dreadful death of her husband—can stand in the way of her lust for money and power. She finds herself in the position to dominate, the business shared by hersert and her brothers. Her avarice feeds on the idea till every decent instinct, every noble thought, is blotted out in the mad desire to possess or destroy—a sort of Hitlerian vampire in the guise of a cultured woman.
