Show 'The Merry Widow' Glorious Film Treat Resplendent in its strikingly beautiful beau-tiful settings and costumes, filled to the brim with sly, ingratiating humor, hum-or, telling a romantic tale that cannot can-not fail to delight every onlooker, and echoing the never-to-be-forgotten melodies of Franz Lehar, "The Merry Widow" opens Sunday, Monday Mon-day and Tuesday, December 9, 10 and 11, at the Cameo Theatre as one of the most glorious film treats ever offered by the Metro-Goldwyn-May-er studios. With a cast that could not be improved im-proved upon and the superb direction direc-tion of Ernst Lubitsch this picture floats along like a bubble of merriment merri-ment to tell its story of the debonair debo-nair prince and the bewitching widow wi-dow whom he waltzes away to romance ro-mance amid the nocturnal delights of gay Vienna and Paris. Maurice Chevalier and Jeanette MacDonald have never enjoyed a greater triumph. They sing the Lehar Le-har songs as they have never been sung before, backgrounded by a magnificent mag-nificent syYnphony orchestra. Una Merkel and George Barbier help in the humorous scenes and the eye-filling eye-filling dances and Albertina Rasch ballets are a joy to behold. "The Merry Widow" Is the grandest thing to come out of Hollywood in a long, long time. D |
