DARKIE COMEDY
TWO BLACK CROWS IN TALKIES Why Bring That Up?" the Two Black Crows lirst Paramount all-talk - ing picture, will soon be released in New Zealand as an extended season attraction. Thousands of gramophone enthusiasts, who know the Black Crows already by their records, will be given the chance to see and hear them for the first time. The Two Black Crows, Moran and Mack, spent several years in studying many distinct types of American negroes, before developing the characters they present in their famous comedy dialogue. Both comedians were born in the State of Kansas, which borders on the Southern States, and had ample opportunity to study the negroes during their youth. Mack says that the contact with the happy, care-free blacks. greatly influenced their comedy. The characters they present are not typical of any particular type, but are really a combination of many types.
