STATE THEATRE

“MADE FOR EACH OTHER.” Tire tense and thrilling story of Jane and John Mason, an average, mo-dern-day couple, deeply in love but hounded by opposing economic conditions. is unfolded in the new film drama. “Made For Each Other,” a David O. Selznick production which will be shown at the State Theatre tonight. Co-starred for the first time, and as a romantic team, Carole Lombard and James Stewart play principal roles, while prominently featured in an unusual supporting cast are the screen notables Charles Coburn, Lucile Watson, Ruth Weston, Donald Briggs, Eddie Quillan, Harry Davenport, Esther Dale. Alma Kruger and Tully Marshall. Among the other members of the cast, which reads like a “who’s who” of Hollywood’s supporting players, is Julia Faye, one-time star of silent films, who played in the last silent picture ever made, “The Godless Girl,” and now is making a comeback on the screen. Also present is Jack Mulhall, one of the few silent stars to continue successfully through the sound era. “Made For Each Other,” an original story by Jo Swerling, noted film author, draws its characters and plot from the wealth of material in life’s everyday parade. Thousands have faced the problems entertainingly and dramatically presented in this film. “Made For Each Other,” while it is first and last an exciting and suspenseful story, brings many questions into the open, and discusses them frankly and honestly by means of motion picture drama —an answer to the demand of people all over for pictures with a meaning. There is a strong supporting programme including a Riviera travelogue. unusual occupations and a Pathe pictorial.
