RIALTO, NEWMARKET
A splendid talkie programme is being shown at the Rialto Theatre, Newmarket, this week, as the second big talking programme attraction. “Street Girl” is the title of the chief attraction. Gay music, graceful dancing, haunting music, spectacular, scenes, and a glorious romance. It is not the first time that Hollywood has tried to unite these elements in the talking screen, but it is the first time we have seen it done In such an appealing and entertaining manner. “Street Girl” is one of those musical photo-plays that has an appeal for every theatregoer. There is a captivating story, a generous share of enchanting music, and a wealth of personalityin the talented cast headed by Betty Compson, bewitching darling of the talking screen.
The story tells of the struggles of a little group of musicians—four boys and a girl—to win fame from an unpromising start in a small cafe in the picturesque Hungarian quarter of New York.
Adorable Betty Compson, in the role of a little Hungarian violiniste, brings a new charm to the screen. Gay rippling tunes fall from the violin of this musician as she plays and dances her way through the picture. A full supporting programme of high-class Items will also be shown.
