"A Hole in the Head"

Coming to the Majestic Theatre (Kerridge-Odeon). As usual with Frank Capra films somewhat sentimental, but brilliantly comic as well. Edward G. Robinson is seen in a comedian's role. Frank Sinatra is as off-hand as ever

"The Golden Age of Comedy"

Coming to an Amalgamated Theatre. An incredibly fine collection of sequences from the one and two-wheeler comedies of Hal Roach| and Mack Sennett. Performers include Ben Turpin, Will Rogers, The Keystone Cops, Charlie Chase and Laurel and Hardy. Here at last is a fair representation of the mad in-ventiveness and superb Visual comedy of 35 years ago !
