MOUNT EDEN AND GREEN LANE
Produced on a magnificent scale, “Rio Eita,” at both the Alexandra Theatre, Green Lane, and the Crystal Palace Theatre, Mount Eden, is a distinct triumph for the audible screen. Besides the excellent work of the principals, the wonderful choruses, the clever dances and ballets, and the magnificent scenes contribute to the success of the production. The scenery throughout is gorgeous, especially the scenes on the general’s barge, where colour photography adds considerably to the effect. Miss Bebe Daniels makes her debut in the talking picture world as Rio Rita, revealing altogether unthoughtof talent. Vivacious and charming, Miss Daniels makes a captivating Mexican belle. Bebe has a really wonderful voice, and the manner in which she sings the popular numbers of the play leaves nothing to be desired.
