PLAZA THEATRE
SHIRLEY TEMPLE’S “CURLY TOP.” As has come fu be expected of her, Shirley Temple has made an instant hit with Wanganui audiences in her new film, “Curly’ Top,” which is to continue at the Plaza Theatre to-night and to-morrow. Delightful entertainment as she has provided in past films. “Curly Top” with ease outdistances its predecessors. The story is simple yet satisfying. Little Shirley is living at the Lakeside Orphanage, run under a stern system of joyless routine. All the same, little Curly Top, as she is known to everybody, manages to be happy. She has her older sister, Rochelle Hudson, wlho had promised her parents always to take care of the youngster. Curly Top also has an educated pony and a trained duck. During a visit of trustees, John Boles, a lonely wealthy lawyer, realises that this gifted child is misplaced. He is also impressed by the musical talents of Rochelle. His interest takes the form of inviting them to come and live in his mansion. No fewer than five cherry songs are introduced in the course of the picture, two of them sung by’ Shirley Temple in her own inimitable way.
