MAJESTIC THEATRE
TO-NIGHT. Never since "Broken Blossoms" has a more puignant love story of the Orient been sereened than "The Bitter Tea of General Yen," a spectacular Columbia feature which opens tonight at the Majestic Theatre, with Barbara Stanwyck starred in her greatest role. Delicately woven against the intrieate and turbulent background of Chinese civil war, this romantic tra>gedy reaches moments of greatness from the portrayal of Miss Stanwyck as a timid and inhibited American girl who falls under the spell of the Orient and is swept into emotional rebellion against her prim New England uphringing. Frank Capra, Columhia's directorial genius, has conceived a truly epic film that is dramatically and emotionally powerful. "The Bitter Tea of General Yen" has the sweep of dynamic power and a psychologically dramatic sensitivity.
