COSY THEATRE.

‘ REOPENING ON WEDNESDAY.

After having been completely reno'vated the Cosy Theatre will reopen ito-morrow evening at 7.45 o’clock, when the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, “Mystery of Mr. X” will be screened. With only two exceptions, the cast is aIJ-British. Headed by Elizabeth Allen, petite English screen actress, who scored such a hit with. Herbert Marshall in 4 4 The Solitaire Man,” the artists include Henry Stephenson, well-known character actor, Ralph Forbes, Forrester Harvey, for his deliniation of Cockney roles, Alec B. Francis, Ivan Simpson, Charles Irwin and Leonard Mudie, who plays the sinister ‘ 4 Mr. X. ’ ’ The exceptions are Robert Montgomery and Lewis Stone, both of whom, although born in America, might easily be mistaken for Englishmen, both in appearance and speech. Adapted from the sensational novel, “X Versus Rex,” the new M-G-M film is set in London, and tells the thrilling story of a duel between Scotland Yard and a maniacal slayer of policemen. Montgomery as a sauve crook is forced by circumstances to take a hand in the game, with results that are both sensational and far-reaching. Reserves at Perry’s ’•phono 2496.
