MAJESTIC THEATRE

TO-DAY AND TO-NIGHT

DOUBLE FEATURE PROGRAMME i "The opening of the Warner Bros. pieture, "The Keyhole," at the Majestic Theatre last night marks the advent of a brand new screen couple in the persons of Kay Francis and George Brent. Although both have been playing leading roles at the Warner Bros. studios for more than a year this is the first time in which they have played in the same pieture, being co-fea-tured in this production. The two make an unusually strong combination, both being among the finest featured players in Hollywood, and both having the background of successful stage careers hefore entering pictures. They are unusually well matched physically as well as in theatrical ability. They are the tallest couple playing together in serious drama, Miss Francis being five feet seven inches tall and Brent six feet tall. SECOND FEATURE That brilliant satirist, W. Somerset Maugham, is the author of Constance Bennett's newest screen drama "Our Betters," RKO-Radio pieture now at the Majestic Theatre. London and New York. were shocked when they first witnessed this biting satire on the stage, but after a lapse of several years it was revived in both metropolises and^ Ina Claire made a great success of it in New York. It should prove to he Constance Bennett's greatest characterisation and call forth talents that previous roles have not given her a chance to display. Here is an innocently romantic girl who has soph'Stry forced upon her. Either she must wear a protective coat of hardness, or go through life utterly c~u«hed because the man she marries for love had wed her for money. _ _ Having paid for the title of Lady Grayston with heartacbe and a nnllion good American dollars, she decides to get all she can out of the onportunity her title and London soeial position entitle her to.
