. .... . OPERA HOUSE—To-night: “Always in My Heart.”
The new attraction, at the Opera House,- “Always in My Heart,” will bid fair to go down in screen history, not only as a thoroughly delightful picture of family life, but also as the picture which introduced Gloria Warren to the film public. For a 15-year-old Miss Warren has a singing voice that is pure gold, and a completely captivating personality. Kay Francis, and Walter Huston head the cast with Gloria Warren, and Frankie Thomas, Patty Hale, Una O'Connor and Sidney Blackmer are featured. Borrah Minnevitch provides some tuneful interludes. Huston, as the father, is in jail, and at his insistence, his wife (played by Miss Francis), is divorced from him and his children believe him to be dead. A wealthy man is in love with her and anxious to marry her, and take care of her and the children. She can’t make up her mind, and seeks Huston's advice. He tells her to accept, and hides from her the fact that he has been pardoned. Meanwhile, the son of the family (Frankie Thomas) is completely won over to the idea of having a stepfather, particularly after he is presented with a new car. The daughter, who has discovered that the “Professor” is really her father, and that lie is leaving town that night, taking a boat to San Diego, decides to go with him. Finding that she has missed the boat, she takes her brother’s speedboat to catch up with it.
