Friday and Saturday-From China
to France in thirty minutes-and with
no seven league boots either-this is
the feat of Renee Adoree, famous
heroine of 'SThe Big Parade" and the
captivating Musette of con Ze Boule-
vard," a hilarious Partisan comedy.
Miss Adoree hoped from China to
France in half an hour-pictorially
speaking, when, Immediately on COM
pletion of her role as the Chinese girl
in "Mr. WI" she resumed her own
nationality to play heroine opposite
Lew Cody in the new picture Miss
Adoree for weeks had been in Chinese
garb and makeup opposite Lon Chan
ey in the big Chinese romance. "And
them" she says, "I just had to put on
French clothes and be myself again" :"
For Miss Adoree is French of course
which made the transition from one
role to the other easier than it would
otherwise have been. The new story
is lifting comedy of Paris, with
Cody in the role of waiter who in
herits a fortune, gets tangled up with
a blonde actress (played by Dorothy
Sebastian), is challenged to a duel by
a jealous rival, and gets into so much
hot water that it seems as though
he'll never emerge from his comical
troubles.
