PARAMOUNT THEATRE.
A mystery story of unusual excellence is the leading feature of the new programme at the Paramount Theatre. In "The Greene Murder Case," the happenings and coincidences are such as to cast suspicion on a number of innocent persons, and a state of doubt pervades tho minds of the audience, as well as the thoughts of many of those who had to do with tho original events. The acting in this "talkie" Paramount production is of a high order, and the dialogue is clear. In the household are several servants, in addition to tho members of tho family, who dislike each other, and a doctor visits the house. Tho death occurs of three members of the family. Philo Vance and a police-sergeant come to investigate the case, and ultimately succeed In their difficult task. The leading role is taken by William Powell, and ha is ably supported by an unusually strong cast. The gazettes of world happenings are of great variety and interest, and a comedy which keeps tho audience in constant laughter, make the first half of the programme most attractivo and entertaining.
