ST. JAMES
“ON WITH THE SHOW” “On With the Show,” the 100 per cent, natural colour, talking, singing, dancing picture, a Warner Bros. Vitaphone and production, now delighting crowded audiences at the St. James Theatre, is the most lavish and colourful picture of the season. The new colour process that xyas used brings out costumes, settings and players in their natural tints. It is the second all-talking all colour picture to be filmed, thus marking another milestone of film progress, just as the advent of Yitaphone pioneered by Warner Bros, wrought a great change in the film industry.
The remainder of the programme at the St. James includes a number of entertaining short talkie items. There are one or two good comedy sketches, jazz items by Abe Lyman’s Band, by Frank Crummit, items by the Newsboys’ Harmonica Band, and songs by Chief Caupolian, a Red Indian with a rich, full baritone voice.
