“TAKE ME HOME” AT GRAND
“Take Me Home,” now at the Grand Theatre, is a story of stageland, a rollicking comedy-drama with the sparkle of a Follies ensemble, and the speed of a modern Bebe Daniels production. Furthermore, it contains a sympathetic plot that is plausible and convincing.
Imagine befriending a starving young vaudeville aspirant, finding him a situation in a musical comedy chorus, teaching him, encouraging him. loving him—only to see him vamped and dazzled by the leading lady. That is the situation in which Bebe of the chorus finds herself.
Between gorgeous shots of a huge musical comedy in full swing, tinaction of the picture concerns itself with the rivalry between the two women. The climax is reached when Bebe is goaded to attack Lilian Tashman, the star. Transformed into female furies, the two stage one of the most realistic and diverting frays witnessed for many a day.
