Show Shirley Stars In Gayest Film The Cameo Theatre is currently host to one of the brightest, hap-Ipiest hap-Ipiest and most delightful photoplay the screen has presented in months, "Captain January," in which Shirley Shir-ley Temple returns as a tiny sea-waif sea-waif who steers straight into your heart. Surrounding Laura E. Richards' pungently dramatic story with a flock of tickling tunes and adorable dances. "Captain January" is the story of a little girl and a grizzled old lighthouse keeper who fight for happiness and who find it after many harrowing adventures. The villain in the piece is Sara Haden, in the role of a vixenish truant officer. She bends all her efforts toward separating Shirley and her protector, Guy Kibbee. Plot follows counterplot until Kibbee flees out to sea with Shirley, and the picture reaches its happy conclusion when the "old meanie" is thwarted, and Shirley and Kibbee are happily rejoined. Most adorable of the tinkling new tunes, all with music by Lew Pollack, Pol-lack, is "The Right Somebody to Love." Shirley's dancing partner in "Captain January" is limber-legged Buddy Ebsen, who performs a flock of fascinating new steps with the starlet when he isn't busy falling m love with June Lang. Slim Sum-merville Sum-merville and Jane DarweU are outstanding out-standing in comedy characterizations characteriza-tions in this picture, ably and humorously hum-orously directed by David Butler. Coming to the Cameo Theatre Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, September 27, 28 and 29. |
