MAURICEVILLE TALKIES
TOMORROW’S PROGRAMME. The picture to be shown at Mauriceville tomorrow night, “Four’s a Crowd,” is a particularly good one. That the title is an apt one becomes more and more apparent as the amours of the handsome young quartette get more and more involved. Then in steps Walter Connolly —grandpa to Olivia, and an ill-tempered captain of industry with an all-absorbing interest in his miniature railroad —to further complicate a not altogether simple situation. Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland and Patrie Knowles, who so recently covered themselves with glory in the Technicolor production “The Adventures of Robin Hood.” prove to be at home in ultra-modern comedy. Rosalind Russell, borrowed from another studio for the role, is perfectly cast as a feminine newshawk with a sense of humour. Add to that Walter Connolly at his best, Melville Cooper and Hugh Herbert in stand-out comedy bits, and there is an excellent comedy production.
