AMUSEMENTS

Opera House

Finally To-night: “Kisses for Breakfast” and “Sleepers West.” Next Attraction '(commencfing Friday): “You’re Tetlin’ I” and “Outlaws of the Desert” “YOU’RE TELLIN’ I” A hilarious combination of music, merriment and romance commences at the Opera House to-morrow (Friday) in “You’re Tellin’ I,” starring Judy Canova and Joe E. Brown, and featuring Eddie Foy Jr. and Jerome Cowan. Aside from the tuneful melodies, the eye-filling sets and the smooth and finished performances of the supporting players, there is above all the superb comedy and inimitable personality of Miss Canova whish washes away the cares and turmoils of the present day like a refreshing shower. “You’re Tellin’ I” has a timely slant with the scripters utilising all that is comical in the Nazi regime and playing it to the Jjilt for laughs. There are those who hold to the belief that ridicule is one .of the strongest weapons in winning a war. If such is the- case, Republic’s “You’re Tellin’ I” is an entire defence industry in itself! “OUTLAWS OF THE DESERT” Clarence E. Mulford’s latest “Hopalong” Cassidy action romance “Outlaws of the Desert” starring William Boyd commences at the Opera House to-morrow (Friday). Said to be a most unusual film, both in story material and photography, the action takes place in one of the most colourful outposts of civilisation—the mysterious desert of ffir-off Arabia. Natives who wield knives and swords with the accuracy and timing of a vaudeville juggler; alluring harem girls in exotic drnmeswild desert tribes led by outlaw chiefs lurking behind xsand dunes ready to ppuncexm the unsuspecting traveller: and sheiks- who" live in legal splendor and rule their oasis paradise with supreme power • over life and death. This is the background which supplies “Hoppy” with his greatest adventure.
