AMUSEMENTS.
EVERYBODY’S PICTURES.
TO-NIGHT ONLY.
‘“BUSINESS AND PLEASURE.”
Will Rogers is> at his hilarious best in “Business and Pleasure,” his latest Fox Film starting vehicle, at the Princess Theatre to-night. Although Booth Tarkington wrote “The Plutocrat,” . from which Hie r i fii m was taken, as'-a defence of the ' ' Middle Western “Babbitt,” Rogers gets much more out of the story than that, and keeps interest at a high pitch ns he provides more than his usual quota of laughs. As in all other Rogers’ pictures, there is not an. off-colour joke or situation in the entire production, a circumstance that, has endeared him to the American family. The world famous comedian-humor-ist is given excellent support by a cast which includes Jett,a Goudnl, Joel McCrae, Dorothy Peterson, Peggy Ross, Boris Karloff, Cyril Ring, and Jed ' Prouty. David Butler has done an inspired job on ,the direction, even surpassing his .previous Rogerspicture, “A Connecticut Yankee.” Business and Pleasure” ( is excellent and entertaining. Our recommendation is.
to see it by all means. You can t a '- ford to miss it. Also showing the •serial.
