KING'S THEATRE.
"Mr. and Mrs. Smith."
A legal technicality by which a young married couple suddenly discover they are not married at all, forms the theme of the new Carole Lombard-Robert Montgomery film, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," which opens on Friday at the King's Theatre. The slight alteration in the boundary line of a Western State makes for all the trouble, and effectually annuls the three-year-old wedding ceremony of the Smiths. Ordinarily all they would have to do is to remarry immediately, but at the moment the Smiths are having some domestic difficulties, and the news comes as something of a shock. Around this hilarious situation, with its many possibilities, is woven a most entertaining comedy, with Alfred Hitchcock directing the two stars. How Smith frantically endeavours to persuade Mrs. Smith to marry him again, and the introduction of Smith's law partner as a rival in the case, with the heroine unable to make up her mind which man she wants to marry, all lead to hectic consequences and a riotous climax.
