CIVIC
“THE TWO CUCKOOS” “The Two Cuckoos” is meeting with considerable success at the Civic Theatre. The film is based on a well-devel-oped plot and has a pleasing little romantic story running throughout. But the comedy is of prime importance. Those two wags, Bert "Wheeler and Robert "Woolsey, of “Rio Rita” fame, clown their way through the show carrying everything with them. The picture is completely theirs —a concoction of delightful nonsense, wild fun and side-splitting comedy gags. “The Cuckoos” is a most lavish production. It is dressed with breathtaking settings and costumes; the cast includes seven featured players in addition to "Wheeler and Woolsey. and hundreds of singers, dancers, musicians and extra players. A large portion is filmed in the most effective technicolour yet to reach the screen.
