STATE THEATRE
“ONCE UPON A HONEYMOON.”
Some of the most amusing bits of spoofing seen on the screen in Masterton for a long time are in “Once Upon a Honeymoon,” a comedy of the world crisis which has Ginger Rogers and Cary. Grant in the top roles and will be shown tonight at the State Theatre. This film, which starts with the courtship of an ox-strip-tease girl from Brooklyn in pre-Hitler Vienna, and ends in mid-Atlantic after the fall of France, is composed of the adventures of the girl and a radio broadcaster and is filled with action and laughs. Once married to an Austrian baron who is believed to be Hitler’s chief “finger man,” and who betrays one country after another, the girl is trailed by the radio man, and there is much opportunity for comedy even in bombed Warsaw and post-Hit-ler Paris. Ginger Rogers has never been better and Cary Grant has a splendid part. The supporting cast is packed with good names. The rest of the programme is of good variety.
