TIVOLI
“HARD BOILED ROSE” “Hard Boiled Rose.” now at the Tivoli, gives the exotic Myrna Loy further chance to prove that she can be other than exotic. She has essayed many roles in her short but brilliant career which have called for the mysetrious, Oriental type. “Hai'd Boiled Rose” shows her first as the convent-bred daughter of an aristorcratic Southern banker, a girl wholly unfamiliar with the harsher phases of life. It is the self-inflicted death of her father, and the imprisonment of her lover, which temporarily changes her character. In the guise of the most seductive of sirens she goes to the gambling house of the notorious Julie Malo, determined to get from the safe there the bonds which her father had stolen from his firm, to pay his gambling debts. The means of procedure suggests itself when the masquerading lady meets the handsome son of Julie. She at once sets about winning his love, next accepts his offer of marriage, and finally suggests his getting the bonds that they may have money with which to elope. Several all-talkie supporting pictures accompany this big all-talkie.
