_The talent for comedy first revealed by Greta Garbo inâ€" ‘"‘Ninotchka®" reaches a new high in the brilliant actress‘ latest appearance, again in comedy and again with Melvyn Douâ€" glas, in ‘"Twoâ€"Faced Woman," which opens Sunday midnight, March 2nd at the Palace theatre and continues untii Wednesday night, March 4th. Playing a dual characterization, the witty, sophisticated tale offers Garbo a role unlike anything she has ever attempted before. She jitterbugs and sings, abandons her famous long bob for an ultraâ€"modern hairdress, makes her first appearance in a bathing suit and carries on a brilliant verbal duel with her rival in love played by Conâ€" stance Bennett. The story casts Garbo as a ski inâ€" structress in a swank winter resort. Here she meets Melvyn Douglas and after a violent courtship, marries him. When Douglas returns to New York on business and is subsequently atâ€" bWracted by the charm of Miss Bennett, arbo follows him and devises an inâ€" genious scheme to break up this little affair by masquerading as her "twin sister." From then on a series of amusâ€" ing situations keep the philandering husband in hot water until the solution i arrived at in an unexepected and diverting climax. Garbo Triumphs in the Gay Comedy Role of "Twoâ€"Faced Woman" Acts Role to the Hilt. ~Garbo, beautifully photographed, and acung her comedy role to the. hilt, keeps audience attention riveted in her every appearance in a scene, with Douâ€" glas a perfect foil in the amusing douâ€" ble role situations. Miss Bennett is exâ€" cellently cast as the love rival, and other standâ€"out performances are conâ€" tributed by the noted stage actress, Ruth Gordon, in the role of the wiseâ€" inâ€"theâ€"ways â€" of â€" the â€" world secretary, Roland Young as Douglas‘ harassed business partner, and young Robert Sterling, playving his best part to date 2nd prest mate P AT THE LOCAL THEATRES | skiin George Cukor directed *"*Two Woman" with deft skill that n his "Philadelphia Story," and | Goldwynâ€"Mayer provided lavish grounds for the Adrianâ€"designed worn by Garbo and Miss Bennet Seript and Actors are nv So the Show‘s a I Start tinuing rule in H 000 feature ed out, on dies or cof New Kay Kyser Film is Set Down as "Hot Comedy" A film its serip This i im, Kay mates", ps what with film funst: In addi 04000 $ 404808 989066000 00 Playing: With Melvyn Douâ€" glas in New Picture. leader i8 BC C more, fery Robsor veyor haves b 4 460004 069088 040648086008 464000 46044 46# 46 0 6 0 4 6 4 4 46 06604 0 % 4 Butlet "Playmates" starring Kyser and featurnig some of the greatest personalâ€" ities in filmdom, namely, John (The great profile) Barrymore, the Fiery Uupe Velez and the beautiful Ginny sSimmsâ€"at the Broadway Sunday Midnight to Wednesdayâ€"March 2nd to March 4th.

Kern and M. M. Musselman on this original screen play for RKO Radio, which is said to be one of the‘most mirthâ€"provecking comeâ€" dies of the season. The story has Kyer playing himâ€" self, while Barrymore is seen mas a former stage star now on the skids who is trying to land a lucrative radio contract. But the prospective sponsor feels that the old Great Profile ain‘t what he used to be; he would rather have some personality with the popuâ€" larity of Kay Kyser. Patsy Kelly, as Barrymore‘s press agent, hits upon a scheme to link the actor‘s name with the band leader‘s in order to gain valuable publicity. With the aid of Kyser‘s manager, she maneuvres the two performers into a position whereby they reluctantly agree to appear together in a Shakespearean Festival following the release of a story that Kyser is studying of Barrymore. How the once great actor tries to doubleâ€"cross his wouldâ€"be student with the help of a hottempered Mexican lady bullâ€"fighter, Lupe Velez, leads to the uproarious climax, with Kyser turning the tables and staging a Shakespeareâ€"inâ€"Swing number at the Pestival that proves to be a sideâ€" splitting episode. In addition to the principals already mentioned, ‘"Playmates" also features Kyser‘s entire band, including his popular entertainers, Ginny Simms, Harry Babbitt, Sully Mason and Ish Kabibble, all of whom add to the merriâ€" ment, and enliven the gay film with tuneful novelty numbers. Fourâ€"Star Cast Scores in "When Ladies Meet" When the allâ€"star picture was first timidly suggested in Hollywood, produâ€" cers were apprehensive. For one thing, few plays existed with multiple roles of equal calibre. _ _Such a play is ‘"When Ladies Meet," which brings tha latest allâ€"star cast to the screen in Joan Chawford, Robert Taylor, Greer Garson and Herbert Marshall. The picture is playing at the Cartier Monday~ and Tuesday, March 2nd and 3ra. An added feature is "Michael Shayne Detective" starring Lloyd Nolan. "When Ladies Meet" is a gay roâ€" mance of tangled loves and equally tangled lovers.
