FAMOUS COMEDIANS IN “WHY BRING THAT UP?”
The first talking picture made in Hollywood by Moran and Mack, famous the world over as the Two Black Crows, has been secured by' the management of the Crystal Palace Theatre, and this much-heralded picture will enter on a limited season there next Monday. “ Why Bring That Up?” as the picture has been titled, is a film that has only the best in it, even apart from Moran and Mack themselves. The story is told
against a theatrical background, beingthe ups and downs, the laughs and tragedies, the adventures and the romances of a pair of vaudeville comedians, and some of the Broadway scenes are lavish in the extreme. There is singing and dancing in “Why Bring That'Up?” excellent ballets and merry songs that would be an asset to any picture, but people come to 'see and to hear the Two Black Crows in this picture, and those thousands who have chuckled over the records will not be at all disappointed in the brand and the quality of the wit with which this picture is suffused. Evelyn Brent and Harry Green are two other well-known stars in support of the principals. The box plans will open at The Bristol Piano Company next Thursday.
