THE AVIATOR ” FOR THE NEW OPERA HOUSE
The big attraction coming to the Opera House on Saturday next, and which will replace the present fine programme, is Warner Bros.’ and Vitaphone all-talking laugh sensation. "The Aviator,” said to be the funniest comedy of the air ever filmed. Edward Everett Horton, who is one of the greatest comedians on the talking screen, plays the role of a staid author who is forced to go aloft alone in his first airplane ride, to maintain an undeserved reputation as a skilful stunt flyer. He demonstrates that, while a man who has never before been in an aeroplane is in imminent danger of breaking his neck, he is quite as likely to put bn one of the craziest, most breath-taking stunt scenes in the history of aerial acrobatics. As an invigorating mixture of laughs and thrills, "The Aviator” is said to set a new mark. In the cast are Patsy Ruth Miller, Johnny Arthur, Lee Moran and many other popular screen stars. The box plans are now open at The Bristol.
