ST. JAMES
COLOUR PRODUCTION Although now in the sixth week of an exceptionally popular season, there is no diminution yet apparent in the public interest in the all-colour musical film, “Gold Diggers of Broadway,’* showing at St. James Theatre. Nearly 150,000 already have attended. Attractive features of the spectacular Warner Brothers’ and Vitaphone production, which is all-talking, are the wonderful stage effects, charming singing, brilliantly-coloured ensembles, and, above all, the superb acting of the principals. Winnie Liglitner, Nick Lucas, “the crooning troubadour,” Helen Poster and Conway Tearle having prominent roles. The features which are shown in support include the overture from “Orpheus,” items by Van and Schenck, “Realisation,” an amusing comedydrama, and a pleasing dance by the Vita-phone Girls entitled “Serpentine.”
