‘ANYTHING GOES’
RETURN SEASON AT LAURIER * Anything Goes,’ whicli commences to-morrew at the Laurier, is a jolly, tuneful, entertaining picture. _' Bing Crosby is the featured player in this song-starred presentation of the popular musical comedy which broke records during its New York run. He is assisted by such favourites as Ethel Merman, Charlie Buggies, Ida Lupino, and Grace Bradley. All the famous Cole Porter songs which were universally popular are heard in this mirthful picture, and the bright dance routines deserve mention, as does the fast-paced direction. The audience is carried headlong from amusing escapades to diverting songs, and from spectacular night-club scenes to madcap comedy. Bing Crosby is a knight errant aboard a transatlantic liner.. His borrowed passport gets him into trouble, for it belongs to a “ public enemy.” That passport forces him to tumble in and out of sundry disguises with hilarious consequences. The whole ship become a madhouse of run. ‘ Anything Goes ’ is amusing entertainment through and through. H is heartily recommended to one and all.
