GRAND
“THE GAY RETREAT” The mirth-provoking marines of “What Price Glory,” Sammy Cohen and Ted McNamara, have been teamed again, this time in the featured roles of “The Gay Retreat,” Fox Films war comedy, which will be shown at the Grand Theatre for three more days.
This is an hilarious story of war days and Paris nights, and is said to set a new standard in feature length war comedies. The story deals with a sleep-walking doughboy and the two pals who join the army with him to keep him from walking into No Man’s Land in his sleep. “I cannot give up my parties, friends —everything!” is the anguished -ay of the woman who shirked motherhood in
“The Unborn,” William Christie Cabanne’s production, which opens at the Grand on Friday. How terrible is the payment accorded she who denied Nature, forms one of the most powerful scenes in this much-discussed prp-blem-play.
