“HONEYMOON” Starring Shirley Temple, Guy Madison and Franchot Tone, the rousing and Hilarious, romantic comedy “Honeymoon,” is now showing at the Opera House. The story revolves around the efforts of a pair of young Americans to get married in Mexico City. This sounds simple but to accomplish it in the Mexican capital requires . various formalities like health certificates and proper passports, none of which our impetuous young lovers have. Consequently, both have to run to a career man in the American consulate for help each time a new obstacle appears in the path of true love, and that official finds, himself in increasingly hot water with his own fiancee, a pretty and jealous Mexican airl. The results are plenty of trouble for all three principals, and plenty of laughter for the audience as the tale unfolds.
