cookies, and cracker jack.

TOWN BUILT j
FOR ‘POLITICS’
A complete city hall and an entire
town street, one of the largest sin
gle exterior settings constructed
since the coming of the talkies, were
erected to usher Marie Dressier into
film stardom.
This is the big city hall set where
the torchlight processions, rallies
and other demonstrations are staged
by Marie in “Politics,” her new
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture pro
duction which will come Tonight to
the DREAM THEATRE. It is her
first appearance since recently pro
moted to full stardom.
The construction of the huge set
was interesting. As an exterior
building it had to be very solid—so
every wall was treated acoustically,
and the sidewalks were laid over
foundations of porous material to
absorb the bulk of the noise of foot
steps.
Marie Runs for Mayor
The new picture is a hilarious story
of Marie’s running for the mayor’s
job, with Polly Moran _as her cam
paign manager. They organize the
women’s vote, expose the crooked
mayor and his gangster satellites,
call out all the women on strike;
against their husbands when the
men try to organize, and generally |
raise the dickens. There are laughs
galore. There are dramatic scenes,
too, where Miss Dressier has some
remarkable character acting.
• *. j
Charles F. Riesner directed the
new picture, in which a notable cast
appears, including Rosco Ates, Kar
en Morley, William Bakewell, John
Milian, Joan Marsh, Tom McGuire,
Kane. Richmond and Mary Alden.
The story is an original by Zelda
Sears and Malcolm Stuart Boylan.
It was adapted by Wells Root with
dialogue by Robert E. Hopkins.
