PRINCESS AND TIVOLI
“THE CAT’S PYJAMAS” If you ask someone what’s running at the Princess and Tivoli Theatres and they reply, “It’s ‘The Cat’s Pyjamas,’ ” a Paramount picture, don’t think they’re trying to kid you. “The Cat’s • Pyjamas” is really the title of a Paramount picture. It was chosen because it accurately describes the situation in a delightful story written by Ernest Vajda, well-knovrti Hungarian playwright. The picture stars Betty Bronson and Ricardo Cortez, and features Theodore Roberts and Arlette Marchal. William Wellman is the director. The film concerns Betty Bronson, a little seamstress taking care of her invalid father, Theodore Roberts. She has a cat, Tommy, for which she makes a small pair of pyjamas. Hence the title. It is through the misadventure of this cat-in-pyjamas that Betty’s dream of meeting and winning the love* of Ricardo Cortez, a temperamental opera tenor, is realised.
