GRAND
“DRESSED TO KILL” It is a. moot question as to whether there is honour among - thieves, but there is no doubt about their being sentimental. This is vividly shown in “Dressed To Kill,” Fox Films modern story of the underworld, now showing at the Grand Theatre. A waiter in a night club~attempts to tip oft a detective as to some doings of the master mind and his pals. He is caught in the act and enticed into a side room of the cafe. The next day finds the crooks honouring their victim with a high class funeral, flowers and everything. A decent burial, so to speak. “Dressed To Kill” is a starring vehicle for Edmund Lowe, with Mary Astor in the feminine lead and Ben Bard heading a selected cast of featured players, including Charles Morton. The amusing farce, “The Fortune Hunter,” starring Syd. Chaplin, is the second picture. The famous stage drama of India, “The Drums of Oude,” written by Austin Strong, has been purchased by Paramount, and will be produced as a talking picture. The picture will be scynchronised throughout with complete dialogue. As yet no definite cast has been announced.
