WAIPUKURAU THEATRE
"Ex-Mrs. Bradford" — Friday and Saturday With William Powell in the leading role ''The Ex-Mrs Bradford" is the latest and greatest in the line of smooth, swift-moving photo-dramas, bristling with* danger, ;snappy with humour, vibrant with romance. The brilliant successor to "The Thin Man" will be screened at the Waipukurau Municipal " Theatre to-morrow and Saturday at eight with a matinee on Saturday at 2^0. Here we have Powell at his best, a top-notch surgeon and social favourite, with a -talent for sleuthing, who is plunged into a seething mess of murdqr and its aftermath. It is at this time that his ex-wlfe, played by Jean Arthur, elects to mahe up with the husband she has never ceased to love, and from whom she was capriciously divorced. What happens now makes high-speed entertainment. Jean's strong for Bill and' she insists on helping him. She does, to the point , where he becomes suspect. Finally the. doctor-detective pulls a bran.d new trick or two uncovering the villainy and nails his man in the act of a new murder. Jean refuses to be outdone and then you have a completely new. stuht in screen romance. The -supporting cast includes James' Gleason, Eric Blore, Robertf Armstrong, Lila Lee and Ealph Morgan. Seats may be Teserved at Hawkes', phone 282. i
