“PAYMENT DEFERRED.”
One of the outstanding mystery thrillers of the stage may now he seen in film version ah the Princess Theatre, where “Payment Deferred” is being shown with Charles Laughton, who scored in the original play both in London and New York, repeating his extraordinary characterisation of a mild bank clork who, through strange circumstances, becomes a heartless murderer. Laughton, proves himself to he a character actor of the first order in '“Payment Deferred.” The horror this man experiences after poisoning his rich nephew in order to save his family from ruin is a stirring and gripping sensation and offers the jaded appetite of the film-goer something new in the way of screen thrills. Maureen O’Sullivan is at her best as the murderer’s daughter and Dorothy Peterson gives a compelling performance as hi s wife. Also showing Gazettes, Flip the Frog Cartoon and Laurel and Hardy comedy.
