“RIGHT TO ROMANCE.”
Ann Harding’s Latest Film at Tivoli. A strong drama, besides some interesting supports, comprises the current programme at the Tivoli Theatre. “ The Right to Romance,” the leading feature, is a drama that has many tense situations. Ann Harding, one of the best actresses on the film stage, has never done better work. She has been seen here in “ East Lynne,” “ Paris Bound ” and “ Holiday,” her characterisations earning her great kudos, but in “ The Right to Romance ” she is superb. The characterisation of the part of Dr Margaret Simmons is not one where heaw acting is demanded. It needs a refined and intellectual j trayal, and there is no one on the | screen who could have done it with • better results than Miss Harding. Supporting the actress are Robert Young, . Nils Asther and Sari Maritza. “ Morning Glory.” 1 Regarded as one of the greatest of contemporary screen actresses, Katharine Ilepburn gives a magnificent performance in “ Morning Glory,” which will be shown at the Tivoli Theatre shortly. “IF I WERE FREE.” The sardonically humorous philosophy of Clive Broook as a man who has nothing but trouble in his life is j the dominating feature of the drama ; “ If I Were Free,” which will be screenjed finally to-night at the King’s | Theatre, Sydenham. Brook is admir- ' ab3 r cast as Gordon Evers, and with ; Irene Dunne heads a strong cast. C'om- : ing attractions include “Sunshine Susie” 1 and “ The Invisible Man.”
