COSY THEATRE
‘■ROMANCE OF THE REDWOODS.” A Jove as untamed as the wilderness that gave it birth. A drama smashing with the fury of forests aflame is Jack London’s savage story of love and hate. Columbia’s “Romance of the Redwoods,” adapted to the screen from a Jack London story, will open today at the Cosy Theatre with Charles Bickford and Jean Parker featured. The new film is set amid the scenic grandeur of the Pacific North-West, and tells a story of simple, yet powerful emotion. A moving record of man’s conflict within himself, and of his battle with nature, “Romance of the Redwoods” has been hailed as a visual as well as a dramatic treat. Blondie, Dagwood and Baby Dumpling return to the screen of the Cosy Theatre tomorrow in Columbia’s “Blondie Meets the Boss,” second picturisation of the adventures and misadventures of the Bumbstead clan, that lovable, irrepressible young family of the famous newspaper cartoon. The new film'has been hailed as more lovable and funnier than its predecessor, “Blondie.” Penny Singleton is again to be seen in the role of Blondie. Arthur Lake, who made the perfect Dagwood, again plays the role of Blondie’s blundering husband, while Baby Dumpling is again played by little Larry Simms. Also screening is the third chapter of the thrilling “Lone Ranger” serial. There will be a big Guy Fawke’s parade at 1.30 p.m. tomorrow.
