Gay Divorce
At Little

THE Gay Divorcee," that film
that served to introduce The Con-
tinental' and Might and Day.
just a short time ago. returned yes
terday to the Little Theater for a
weeks run. Chiefly notable for
its stars, Fred Astaire and Ginger
Rogers, this film serves up a So
phisticated and sparkling comedy,
literally interlarded with songs
and dances.
Billed largely as a singing and
dancing film, the comedy has been
overlooked somewhat in its promo
ton; yet it is funny as it is tune
full; as funny as it is rhythmic,
and as funny as it is colorful.
Although viewed the play when
it first appeared in Washington, 1
thoroughly enjoyed my second per
Torrance Of it and laughed as
