PICTURE PROGRAMME.
William Haines is appearing in a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, "Are You Listening?" which is now showing at the Grand Theatre. The story of "Are You Listening?" holds many surprises. Its dramatic strength is said to be excellent, wliilst William Haines does not miss with his fiashes and whimsical humour. Bill Grimes works in a radio station writing snappy, humorous advertising sketches; but his unhappy married life causes him to lose interest in his work, and he is fired. Ilowever, his one .bright spot is his love for Laura, a beautiful young singer who entertains over the air. In a despondent mood, when his wife creates a scene, Bill strikes her, and she falls dead. He runs immediately to Laura, and together they rush away from the law. It is only when the police seek; the aid of the radio that the unhappy couple realise what a terrible plight they are in. Eventually, they are caught, and return to the city. How the action and thrills finally work out helps make "Are You Listening?" a most eniovable nicture.
