AMUSEMENTS.
ivfrYbodys pictures. COOPER’S FIRST ALL-TALKER. Ho sang the mere fragment of a song' in. “Wolf Songs”—but his talking voice was never heat'd by picture audiences before, until Paramount gave him the title role in the all-talk-ing outdoors classic, “The Virginian”, which comes to the Princess Theatre to-night (Thursday). His mime is Gary Cooper, and he is probably the best screen type that could be found anywhere in the ranks of.film actors for the part of the lean, lanky cow-puncher hero of this famous play’from the novel of the same name by Owen Wister. Cooper talks with a slow, mellow drawl in the picture. His mannerisms are those of the range-rider. His acting is real ai<d convincing. He actually lived as a range rider before he went to Hollywood to gain renown in pictures. “The Virginian” was “shot” and '“miked” , in the picturesque cattlerange country of Sonora County, California. Note—Reduced prices. Circle 2/10, stalls 1/(3, children, downstairs 6d.
