“EVENING CLOTHES.”
Adolphe Menjou plays sophisticated Parisian roles better than any other actor on the screen, it is generally admitted. In “Evening Clothes,” coming to the Town Hall Cabaret on Wednesday. He is again cast as a Parisian, but he is not the gay boulevardier all the way through the picture. He is first seen in an absolutely different characterisation, as a French country gentleman, who although of aristocratic background and tremendous wealth, has enough of the homely manners of the soil to repel the dainty Paris bride with whose parents he arranges a match. Virginia Valli is leading woman. Also “Three of a kind,” (comedy), news and variety. ' Usual prices. Lon Chaney’s latest characterisation that of “Mr. Wu,” the sinister Eastern mandarin sholld please patrons when the picture “Mr. Wu” is screened on Friday next. Renee Adoree and Ralph Forbes are also in the big cast. Prices as usual.
