“OFFICER O’BRIEN” AT STRAND
"Officer O’Brien,” starring William Boyd, continues to be shown at the Strand Theatre. In it there is tense melodrama, thrilling, suspenseful—real romance with lovers all the world loves —a poignant love romance that will stir the heart and emotions, and a charming dialogue picture every devotee of the screen will rave c»*er. Bright talkie shorts complete the programme. Edith Wharton’s novel, "The Children,” a best seller of 1928, and a popular serial in "The Pictorial Review,” will be seen in Paramount’s ftlmisation, "The Marriage Playground," at the Strand Theatre from next Friday. Mary Brian and Fredric March are co-featured in the leading romantic roles. The picture was directed by Lothar Mendes, who scored a big success with Clara Bow’s "Dangerous Curves,” and also as the director of Charles Rogers's and Nancy Carroll’s "Illusion.”
Ruth Chatterton can act, write and compose. She has been a stage and screen star for the past 10 years. Two of her plays have been produced on Broadway and more than half-a-dozen inusicaPcompositions are accredited to her.
