Amos ‘n‘ Andy Are Greatest Linguists "Throughout the production," Harâ€" olde declares, "I was amazed at the rapidity with which they transposed the dialogue for the picture into their own particular dialect, They took the longest â€"sentences, and â€" after one brief glance turned them backâ€"endâ€"to, upside down . and . crossways, then spoke them in their own inimitable fashion!" + Barzage Protege‘s Although Charles Farrell and Mauâ€" reen O‘Sullivan, featured players for Fox Movietone, are both "discoveries" of Frank Borzage, they have never worked together in a film until their recent coâ€"featuring jn "The Princess and the Plumber." "The Princess and the Plumber" is a charming romance of a lonely prinâ€" cess and an American engineer, with its setting laid in a mythical region of the Balkans, and with plenty of action and surprises and. comedy to make it highly enjoyable. Noiseless Recording New Era in Talkies "What I consider ‘to be as. great an advance in the art of talking moâ€" tion pictures as the talking pictures themselves were over the old silent kind, will be demonstrated when our theatre shows "The Right to Love" next week," states manager Straus of the Alcyon. This picture was reâ€" corded by the Western Electric New Process Noiseless recording and will be a revelation to those hearing it. It eliminates all extraneous sounds, hissing and scratching noises. Mr. Straus has had expert enginâ€" eers make a thorough check of the sound system and theater. No effort or expense has been spared to give his .patrons the full benefit of this new system of noiseless recording. Big Set for Comedy What is regarded as the most preâ€" tentious â€" interior setting ever conâ€" structed for a talking picture comedy was used in Radio Pictures‘ "Hook, Line and Sinker," coâ€"featuring those undisputable kings of laughter, Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey. It represents the interior of a reâ€" sort hotel. Two huge sound stages were converted into one to provide the necessary spaceâ€"230 by 100 feet. The lobby alone is 100 by 80 feet. This includes a large patio, a beauâ€" tiful interior garden and spacious balâ€" conies. f Thursday, Feb. 26, 1931 Portray Coâ€"Roles
