The story is all about a moving picture machine operator who, watching the screen picture, falls asleep and dreams he is a detect ive who recovers the pearls lost by the heroine of the film. His experiences make up the comedy. Altogether a good diversion. "Y" PIana Summer Camp m · Home of Red,kina NEWELL & RETCHIN HOW'AraRD ADE'I~ftePHI Sunday Dinner at The Plaza Cytherea , a title for the goddess of love, has much to do with that much discussed subject and makes some points that have set a few peop.le to thinking, so I am told. Taken from the story by Joseph Hergesheimer, it fails to fotlow through to the end as the author wrote, but for moving picture purposes it probably couldn't be done. Altogether, Cytherea is a cross section of the lives of some married couples. It deals with what appears to be a perfectly nomal pair, she a home-maker with set ideas and he a man who suddenly wonders what life would he like with a facinating woman who thinks in terms which are not of as practical a nature as those of his wife. An so, yieldin~ to his desire, he finds out, ~oing farther with his experiment than is the usual custom.
