reckless young lady is the storm

Nubi is played with finesse and
unbridled passion by Myrna Loy,
who fits the exotic role perfectly
The screen version abetted by the
marvelous sewings possible in a mo

and first-rate entertainment.

sionally sensational motion picture
“Companionate Marriage," which
First National is showing at the
Texas theater. It is based upon ac
tual incident? recounted by the not
ed Denver Jurist in his book of the
same title. The story was prepared
by Judge Linds y, aided by Wain
wright Evans, and he had a super
vising hand in the filming of the
r'.ory.
The story pictures two marriages
which turned out disastrously, giv
ing to the chiloren a fear of mar
riage, a dislike of surrendering their
independence. To escape some of
the shackles of matrimony th y en
tered into companionate mar
riage.” agreeing not to have chil
dren until sure .hat their love was
lasting and hat th.y could give
them the advantages which childrer
should have. Tlv*y also agreed that
if they found themselves unhappy
together, they would separate at
once.
The picture is first of all enter
tainment. but <t gives the public

phone picture—con ing to the Rivoli
theater next Sunday is the most
important milestc a of this year of
grace in the film industry.
At least that is the consensus of
Hollywood, ever alert to progress
in this new art.
There is not a single scene In
‘On With the Show" which Is
photographed the oldfashioned way.
IT: glamorous stage ana back-stage
story is seen through the medium
of enchanting, ever-changing color.
An entirely new' color process Is
being used which brings out each
hue in its proper value. Jack L
Warner, vice president in charge of
production, was ruick to seize or
this new art and combine it with
Vitapmne. The wedding of the two.
bids fair to start another revolution
in the film industry. Vitaphonc
pioneered by Warners. It will be
remembered eliminated the silent
picture.
‘‘On With the Show" with its
music, dancing. • angs r.nd gorgeoir
colors of settings and costumes anc’
people on the stage, is really stun
ning. One forgets entirely that i*
is a motion picture, or even a talk
ing picture. The effect is utter
reality. It Is as if one were sitting
in a theater seeir" a musical com
edy. with the auded privilege of
going backstage with the players
where the real comedy and drama
of th^ir lives take place.
