PLAZA
“THE COCK-EYED WORLD” The tremendously successful Fox Movietone all-dialogue production, “The Cock-eyed World.” is in its second week at the Plaza Theatre. Full houses since the season’s commencement bear ample testimony to the really good entertaining power of this comedy-drama sequel to “What Price Glory,” and it is expected that the theatre’s accommodation will be taxed to the utmost during this week. The stars of this side-splitting comedy are Victor MeLaglen and Edmund Lowe. The film is based on a story written by Laurence Stallings and Maxwell Anderson, who wrote the unforgettable “What Price Glory.” Lowe and MeLaglen are still in the marines though it is peace time, but there is plenty of fighting in the tropics—and between themselves. Of their many love affairs, three are most prominen* —one in the tropics with the gorge*ous Lily Damita, another in cold Russia with fascinating Lelia Karnelly, and the third at Coney Island with an American girl, Jean Bary. The supporting cast is one of first rank. A Fox Movietone Newsreel also will be shown.
