COSY THEATRE

“STUNT PILOT.” When Hollywood sets out to hold the mirror up to Hollywood the results are apt to be highly entertaining and this is the case with “Something to Sing About,” the sumptuously produced comedy with music, starring the inimitable James Cagney, and made by Victor Schertzinger and Zion Myers for Grand National, will be shown tonight at the Cosy Theatre. In recent years there have been various attempts to delineate the foibles and eccentricities of the people of the movie capital, but few of them, can compare with the present attraction in its pointed satirical thrusts and uproariously funny commentaries on certain phases and characters of the Hollywood scene. The story of “Something to Sing About” was written by Victor Schertzinger, who also directed it, composing the music and lyrics, and Schertzinger has been a prominent Hollywood figure for the best part of the past two decades. The associate feature, “Stunt Pilot,” in a further thrilling-adventure in the life of Tailspin Tommy (John Trent). Chockful of thrills it is one of the best air films made. Also screening is the 9th chapter of the famouus “Lone Ranger” serial. "The Mighty Treve” will be shown on Tuesday night, the associate feature being ’ Night Key.”
