“The Wedding Night”
Samuel Goldwyn’s production of “The Wedding Night” stars a new romantic team, Gary Cooper and Anna Sten. Directed by King Vidor from an original story by Edwin Knopf and adapted to the screen by Edith Fitzgerald, the film depicts in dramatic and vivid manner the experiences of a modem American girl in her revolt against the dictate and restraints of tradition and strict parental rule. The girl living in the rolling farm country of northern Connecticut, seeks to live in conformity with the liberal social ordef of America, but her father, clinging to the habits of the old world, demands that she wed a man of his choice, whom she does not love. Anna Sten emerges in this, her third picture for Samuel Goldwyn, as a girl typically American in dress, talk and actions. Gary Cooper plays the role of a famous New York author with whom she falls in love. “The 'Wedding Night” is released through United Artists.
