MAJESTIC THEATRE
TO-NGHT. On the question of prisons the government have lately been severely taken to task, dne to the fact that the.j public no longer consider imprisonment an adequate form of punish- j ment. Too soft by far — they say — i bht then, probably, they have never j sat through a prison concert — cer- '■ tainly no one like Leslie Fuller had ! to suffer in "To-night's the Night," which is now showing at the Majestic Theatre. A burbling baritone whose choice of "Don't send my boy to prison" can hardly he described as, apt, and a recitation having bearing on the gory activities in "Dead Man's Gulch" form part of the programme, but the piece de resistance is the musical quartette, eomplete with screeching .soprano, who admit it is their first oficence. From the moment the buxom lady pianist in black chiffon and ospreys takes her place on the platform to the moment when Leslie Fuller in gold brocade hecomes entangled with thfc beard of the second violin, filmgors will suffer excruciatingly. Never before has so much laughterurge been gathered together in one film. You must "walce-up" in the words of the song and see "To-night's the Night."
