COSY THEATRE
A THRILING FILM. “Midnight Intruder,” a Universal thriller with a mystery-laden plot will be shown at the Cosy Theatre tonight. This picture, which was filmed from an original story by the famous author Channing Pollock and adapted for the screen by Lester Cole, is cheerfully calculated to keep the audience in rapt suspense one minute, and make them rock with laughter the next. It is all about the adventures encountered by one Barry Gilbert, an adventurer with gentleman’s manners, when he poses as the son of John Rpitter, a wealthy publisher. The excitement begins when he meets the wife of the man he is impersonating; the mystery is supplied when he becomes a sleuth and sets out to solve a murder. Handsome Louis Hayward portrays the role of Barry Gilbert, with Barbara Read as his leading lady. Sheila Bromley, Eric Linden and J. C. Nugent also feature prominently in this picture. Jack Holt and Jacqueline Wells are co-starred in another thrilling picture, “Flight to Nowhere,” in which an airman crashes among hostile natives.
