MUNICIPAL THEATRE
JEANNE DANTE IN "FOUR DAYS WONDER" Weaving a cbarming love story into a film which utilises the funniest mystery situation ever brought to the screen, Universal's brilliant comedy drama, "Foitr Days Wonder," !will open at the Municipal Theatre tonight. The picture is based on A. A. Milne's popular novel of the same title, which uiifolds the sprightly adventures that befall a young girl who flees from an accident, while newspaper headlines conjecture every conceivable crirae from kidnapping to murder. The star of the production is 13-year-old Jeanne Dante, TJniversal's new screen discovery who gained her latest success on the New Yprk stage in "Call It, A Day." Jeanne portrays a cliairacter which combines the best features of Philo Vance, Sherlcfck Holmes and Nero Wolfe, with a peppering of Tom Sawyer to add interest. Bright comedy situations, lomance and laugh provoking dialogue keep pace with the rapid action of the narrative, to give added sparkle to the screen entertainment. Also on the programme is "Diamond Jim," the story of a successful businessman promoter who has a passion for diamonds.
