NATIONAL AND LYRIC
BIG DOUBLE BILL No more delightful and irresistible comedy has been released this season than “The Boob,” now being screened at the National and Lyric Theatres. Here is a farcical and whimsical extravaganza, celebrating the spirit of youth and filled with inimitable fun and fantansy. Emulating the lordly knights of the days of chivalry, its hero rides away on being repulsed in love to prove to the lady of t)is dreams that he is deserving of her regard; and his adventures form one of the most enjoyable comedies ever screened. This film should prove popular with every one. It is filled to the brim with youth and love and thrills and Gen© Cameron. Holmes Herbert. Sammy Cohen, Ted McNamara and Judy King head the cast of “The Gay Retreat,” another of those most appreciated Fox Film “war” comedies. Unlike most war comedies there is a definite plot, and a decidedly different angle on the “Great Unpleasantness” in this clever bit of comedy, which moves quickly from one situation to another. And besides the comedy there are enough thrills to keep any audience in suspense.
