“HONEYMOON HATE.” ONE OF SATURDAY'S ATTRACITIONS AT THE COSY DE LUXE. Shakespeare revealed certain ways -f curing a woman of her terrible t iper in “The Taming of the I oaew,” but Prince Dantarini presents some very original ideas in “Honeymoon Hate,” Paramount’s latest production starring Florence Vidor, to be shown at the Cosy de Luxe Theatre on Saturday, Monday and Tuesday. The picture, an adaptation of the magazine story of the same name by Mrs. A. M. Williamson. concerns an American girl, Gail Grant, played by Miss Vidor, who would demand the moon if she desired it. She is amazed at the audacity of handsome Prince Dantarini when he refuses her certain things, so she seeks to put him in his place, even going so far .as to marry him. He goes through the ceremony, meaning ultimately to tame the girl. Their honeymoon is one of anger and continual wrangling, but the Prince wins out. Tullio Carminati is to be seen in the royal role, while an excellent supporting cast is promised. Luther Reed directed “Honeymoon Hate.” ♦ * * ♦ ■SILK STOCKINGS.” SOMETHING GOOD AND SNAPPY Sae the Cosy Programme on Saturday, Monday and Tuesday. To tell a deliberate lie in the Divorce Court invites, we believe, some six months' free board and lodging at His Majesty’s expense. What it invites in American law we know not. but if it is the same, then White House loomed large on the horizon of Molly Tornhill, when she took the witness stand to testify that her husband, Samuel, smoked, swore, drank homebrew, played cards, went to the club, put flowers on his typist’s desk, neglected to wipe his feet on the mat, and wouldn't cut the wood. The nasty part of it all was that Sam, stout fellow', didn’t do any of these things—he didn’t even cut the wood. Hut Molly was one of those blondes that once started in. nothing can stop them. She told the judge a frightful tale, fondly thinking that he wouldn't believe it. and that Sam would start chopping wood or something. Unfortunately, his Honour swallowed the lot, gave her a decree nisi, and behaved, during the case, with a general distressing lack of judicial decorum. Which is all the preamble to stating that Laura La Plante will disport herself at the Cosy de Luxe theatre for three nights in “Silk Stockings.” A very amusing, sophisticated comedy for the grown-ups only, wherein a pair of silk stockings " (any other kind would depress a saint), play an important role in the making and marring and re-making of the conjugal relations of Molly and her Sam. Miss Le Plante in the chief role, is as frisky and effective as ever. John Barron plays opposite her, a naive and subtle comedian-spouse who makes the most of his role. ♦ * « * “TWO GIRLS WANTED.” SATURDAY, MONDAY & TUESDAY. You Can See This creat Attraction at the Municipal Theatre. .Tnnct Gaynor appears in her latest picture, “Two Girls Wanted,” which is conceived in light mood throughout. She-’ is revealed as a complete mistress of the difficult art of delineating light and fickle moods, of entering into the spirit of adventure which pervade ' the picture and of still retaining her distinctive personality, which is essentially placid Tl’o story of “Two Girls Wanted” is simpM. snffic'ently entertaining, but -nt brilliant nor spectacular, and 'bocn who come i” senyofi r r s*nrt';n*r I roes and stnJiofl sitno'ions.
