“AREN’T WE ALL?”

OWEN NARES AT MAJESTIC BRIGHT HAPPY SHOW With a light colouring of drama, with the story by Frederick Lonsdale, and with Hugh Wakefield and Owen Nares in prominent roles, “Aren’t We All?” a Paramount British picture is now at the Majestic Theatre. Lonsdale is now well known as a screen writer who brings to the story quite a sparkling and most entertaining touch. “Aren’t We All?” is like that —not froth and bubbles, but bright, witty and certainly not slow. Owen Nares takes the part of a husband who is caught kissing someone else by his wife and who pays bitterly for his amusement, until he is able to turn the tables on wife by producing an ex-admirer of hers. Owen Nares and Hugh Wakefield give the most humorous performances of their lives and “Aren’t We All?” will I undoubtedly prove one of the. biggest laugh makers ever released by a British film company. The humour is incessant and unforced and the whole film sparkles with wit and brilliance.

A screen offering that is said to appeal to young and old alike is “Dangerous Years,” Frank Borznge’s latest Fox Films production starting at the Majestic Theatre. Dealing with the timely drama of youngsters at the crossroads of life and with the problems of those who care for them and want to see them in starting off in the right direction, the picture has plenty of significance and interest. Spencer

Tracy and Doris Kenyon have the leading adult roles, with young Tommy Conlon, said to be a sensation, as the boy-hero. Beryl Mercer, Ralph Bellamy, Saiah Paddcn and Raymond Borzagc, another promising youngster, are in prominent supporting parts.

Of its people and made by its people, Hollywood writes its own biograhy in “What Price Hollywood,” which brings the smart vivacity of the glamorous Constance Bennett in her latest starring production coming to the Majestic Theatre next Saturday. Aliss Bennett is purported to surmount the charm and elegance she displayed in her previous film success, “Lady "With a Past,” which won a host of new fans for the screen star. With a number of celebrities in support, Aliss Bonnett unfolds the intricacies and intimacies of tho inner and more notable circles of the film capitol. Lowell Sherman, Neil Hamilton, Gregory Ratoff, Louise Beavers and others aid the star to present an authentic picture of Hollywood life. The. action traverses the thoroughfare of social life coupled with a delightful tale.
