Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur, nlavwrights, have taken Ronald Col- £ for » ride in “The Unholy Garden,” which finally screens at the New Plymouth Opera House to-mght. Not m the Chicago sense, however. The f am * ous writing team have provided . Samuel Goldwyn’s romantic hero with a screen vehicle which lands . him in the A.]<rerian desert. In that far-off land dramatic adventures befall Colman. . A new type of role was wanted for him, as he is one* star who refuses to bo stereotyped.
