"ROSE MARIE."
At the Majestic Tomorrow
Picture theatre patrons have waited a long time for the screen version of the celebrated "Rose Marie," which is;to commence showing at the Majestic Theatre ■ tomorrow-. The gifted quartet who piloted "Naughty Marietta" to unprecedented success—Jeanette Mac Donald and Nelson Eddy, Director W. S. Van Dyke, and Producer Hunt Stromberg—have again turned their talents to a giant enterprise, the production for Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer of the classic light opera "Rose Marie." One of the most successful theatrical properties extant, "Rose Marie" is known the world over. It was first produced in New York in 1924, running two years. The picture was filmed almost entirely out of doors, in the gorgeous mountain-lake settings of the Sierra Nevadas. Such worldfamed songs as "The Indian Love Call," "Rose Marie, I Love You," "Song of the Mounties,' "'Pardon Me, Madame," and others are sung by the romantic stellar team against the majesty of glimmering lakes, tall pines, and superb mountain vistas. The Totem Pole number alone will set a new high spot in photographic beauty and screen entertainment. Filmed at Emerald Bay, on Lake Tahoe, scenic spot of America, peopled with more than seven hundred Indians in a setting of towering, grotesque totems, it is as spectacular as it is rhythmic.
