'FLYING ROMEOS’
A MURRAY AND SIDNEY COMEDY. ‘Flying Romeos,’ which commences at the Now Empire Theatre on Friday night next, features that'inimitable pair, George Sidney and Charlie Murray. Tho opening sequences of the picture, too, with George and Charlie as barbers both seeking the hand of the manicurist, are very funny and gets tho picture off to a lively start, which continues and builds as the production unreels. The supporting cast gives valuable assistance in keeping _ the comedy going. James Bradbury, jun., as the nut who does not know how to fly, but insists on doing it, anyway, gives a praiseworthy performance, as does charming Fritzi Ridgway in the feminine load. ‘ The Stolen Bride, the second feature, is on© of tho outstanding picturs of many months. Introducing Billie Dove to the screen as a star, this picture is ideal for tho actress, and her dramatic and moving performance more than confirms the judgment of the producer in advancing her to the position. With its locale in the intriguing atmosphere of Central Europe, in the days before tho World War throw that portion of the Continent into chaos. -The Stolen Bride’ is filled with the glamour and romance and intrigue of the Old World.
