WAIPUKURAU THEATRE.
"Ex-Mrs. Bradford" — To-day and Saturday With William Powell in the leading role "The Ex-Mrs Bradford" is the iatest 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-night and Saturday at eight with a matinee on Saturday at 2.30. 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 murder and its aftermath. It is at this time that liis ex-wife, played bv Jean Arthur, elects to make up wtith/ 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 qn helping him. She does, to the point where he becomes suspect. Finally the doctor-detective pulls a • brand 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 now stunt in screen romance. The supporting cast includes Jamcs Gleason, Eric I Blore, Robert Armstrong, Lila Lee and Ralph Morgau. Seats may be reserved at Hawkes', phono 2S2.
