Across from the Postoffice
Coliseum Theatre, soon, is one
of the most entertaining pic
tures of the year.
Barbara Stanwyck magnifi
cently portrays the role of Anne
Vincent, a Park Avenue society
girl who objects to marrying her
common-law husband, for fear
that with the ceremony, rom- i
ance will die. She does marry— '
and what she expected would'
fade with time, does fade—but
that’s not the story. Those in
the cast are James Rennie, as
the lover; Claude Gillingwater
as his courtly millionaire fath
er; Natalie Moorehead as a
blonde vamp who does not suc
ceed in remaining among the
‘preferred;’’ Charles Butter
woyth as a glorious souse and |
Joan Blondell as his confederate
in tomfoolery. Ricardo Cortez
successfully plays an unsuc
cessful suitor. Archie Mayo di
rected. Whatever you must miss,
don’t miss “Illicit.”
