COSY THEATRE

“THE INVISIBLE RAY.” Few motion pictures of the current season have proved so genuinely interesting as “The Invisible Ray,” the Universal drama which opens an engagement of three days at the Cosy Theatre tonight. Karloff' and Bela Lugosi, two of the screen’s most sinister individuals, are co-starred in this unusual screenplay, and are the focal points of a story in which they are bitter enemies. Others in the cast of this strange story who do good work are Frances Drake, Frank Lawton, Beulah Bondi, ,Walter Kingsford and Violet Kemble Cooper, while a large share of the credit for a most unusual picture must be given to Director Lambert Hillyer. From a production standpoint the film is unusual. The other big feature is “Three Kids and a Queen,” starring May Robson as the eccentric, crabbed “richest woman in the world.” Never before has “the grand old lady of the screen” been seen in a role so delightful as this, nor one which has afforded such an opportunity for kindly humour alternated with the imperious airs of an old person who through a lifetime has been able to command everything—except, perhaps, the love of those about her.
