“BROTHERLY LOVE”
LATEST DANE-ARTHUR COMEDY Karl Bane and George Jv. Arthur are partners in crime as w-ell as comedy in "Brotherly Love,” which comes to Auckland shortly as a Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer fun feature. In the satire
on "reform” prisons, the famous laugh team is seen as convicts in a collegiate penitentiary, where they have guards only to keep paroled prisoners from breaking in again. A gaol football #am supplies the principal motivation behind the love interest in which the warden’s
pretty daughter is the centre of complictaions. Ban© and Arthur as the prison football gladiators, duel with touch-downs for her hand, and their football antics are uproarious with side-splitting situations. Jean Arthur (no relation to George) is leading lady. "Manhattan Cocktail” is one of the early Paramount releases for 1929. The picture gives interesting glimpses of back-stage life in a large city theatre. Richard Arlen and Nancy Carroll are co-featured. other roles being played by Paul Lukas and Lilyan Tashman.
