KING'S THEATRE.
"No, No, Nanette,''
A sprightly and tuneful modern romance, adorned with songs, dances, and hilarious complications, forms the basis of "No, No, Nanette," Anna Neagle's latest film vehicle, which opens on Friday at the King's Theatre. Topping its predecessor, "Irene," in gaiety and novelty, the new offering deals with a hectic triangle of a pretty heiress, a successful artist, and a prosperous theatrical producer. The girl is interested in both men, but not for romantic .reasons; she is using them for purposes of her own. Her uncle has become involved with some gold-diggers, and Nanette seeks to get him out of his difficulties. However, the two men fall in love with Nanette, which complicates matters, for she can't explain the situation. Moreover, her aunt becomes suspicious at the goings-on, and events pile up until the unique climax when everything is straightened out" aboard a west r bound stratoliner. Featuring the hit tunes of the original Broadway success, "Tea For Two," "I Want to be Happy," and "No, No, Nanette," the picture strikes a fresh new note in screen entertainment, with Richard Carlson and Victor Mature in the romantic leads with Miss Neagle and Roland. Young, Helen Broderick and Zasu Pitts carrying much of the comedy in the principal supporting roles. Herbert Wilcox produced and directed the film for RKO-Radio.
