EMPRESS, NEWTON
The exploits of a “stunt” aviator form the theme of the “Flying Fool,” the chief film on the double talkie programme at the Empress Theatre, Newton. The leading part is played by William Boyd, who makes his appearance as a stunt flyer, surrounded by a bevy of admiring blondes. Discovering that his young brother lias become embroiled in an affair with a cabaret dancer, he sets out to investigate, only to fall in love with her himself. This results in trouble between the brothers, and provides the picture with many dramatic incidents. Finally, an amicable settlement is
reached, the aviator marries the dancer, and the bevy of blondes are turned over to his brother by way of compensation.
The other main feature. “Noisy Neighbours.” deals with the adventures of a troupe of acrobats. The famous Qipllan family, who have won a reputation for work of this kind, fill the leading roles, and their daring acrobatic feats provide the picture with many thrilling incidents.
