"Laughter in Paradise"

At the Princess Theatre (Kerridge-Odeon). An English comedy made about 1955, with Alec Guinness, Georgy Cole and the like. Very fair entertainment.

"A Hale 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 offhand as ever.

"The Golden Age of Comedy"

Coming to an Amalgamated Theatre An incredibly fine collection of sequences from the one and two-reeler 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 inventiveness and superb VISUAL comedy of 35 years ago !

"South Pacific"

At the Kings Theatre (Amalgamated). Your very first show in Todd-AO. Opinions of the film vary, but it is intermittently good, and the new medium has interest. Preceded by an impressive Todd-AO short.
