'" " fihlhs b if Dennis King, Lillian Roth in "The Vagabond King' a Paramount All-Talking, All -Color Production "The Vagabond King,'! Para-mount's Para-mount's lavishly produced, enchanting enchant-ing adaptation or' Rudolph Friivd'a well remembered operetta, will be presented at the Paramount theater .in Provo Sunday for one solid week. In the leading role of the dauntless daunt-less vagabond is Dennis King, the famous star of the New York musical musi-cal stage, who in this screen version, ver-sion, again creates the role in which he originally sky-ioeketed to fame. Playing opposite this golden-voiced star is Jeanette MacDonald, the titian-haired beauty, who recently made her debut on the audible screen with Maurice Chevalier in "The Love Parade." Photographed throughout in beautiful natural colors, this latest Paramount production gives every promise of being one of the most elaborate and costly pictures ever to come from ' this company's studios. The songs featured in this picture pic-ture and sung as specialties by Dennis Den-nis King, Jeanette MacDonald and Ulilan Roth, are "Only a Rose," "Some Day," "Huguelte Waltz," "Love Me Tonight," and the famous fa-mous "Song of the Vagabonds." It startles the imagination to conceive heaiing the artist King sing "The Song of the Vagabonds," accompanied accompan-ied not merely by a chorus of 75 or 100 voices as he was accompanied on the legitimate stage but, instead by 500 voices. Yes, think of it, 500 j voices, led by King, singing this I rousing melody and rollicking song, truly one of the accomplishments that should give further distinction to the remarkable qualities of the audible screen. In the supporting cast are several sev-eral well known players including O. P. Heggie, who made his screen debut with Jeanne Eagles in '-'The Letter," Warner Oland, Arthur Stone and Thomas Ricketts. |
