Westminster Abbey and assumes his
name and insignifcance.
The exchange involves a great
deal of funny business which makes
Holy Matrimony' an ideal escapist
picture. 1t is laughable when Wool
ley weeps so loudly at his funeral
in the Abbey that he is thrown out
of the place and arrested. 1t is the
same when he runs into his future
bride who has arranged with a
matrimonial agency to marry the
dead butler. But still more humor-
Gus are the passages in which he
subsequently undertakes to tell his
wife the truth-that he Is the great
artist-only to have her assume
that he is insane.
Miss Fields, whom you may recall
as luSty lady of the English music
halls, gives an arrestingly subdued
performance as the humble, devoted
wife. She is excellent throughout
the picture. at her absolute best in
the final courtroom scenes when her
love, honesty and devotion to truth
and her husband confound the
learned judge and exasperated law
yers. 1t Is not the sort of thing you
have been led by her previous roles
to expect of Miss Fields. but it is
the more engaging for that.
There are some nobly rich roles
for lesser people in Holy Matri-
mony." Best of the lot is that as
signed to corpulent Laird Cregar
as the art dealer who becomes the
special object of the artists with

establish his true identity. A suave
fellow is the art dealer, as diaboli-
cally cunning in his way as is the
great artist who wants only to re-
main 100 per cent detached from
his fellow man. Cregar plays him
to fine turn.
Una O'Conner as the buffers first
wife, Montagu Love as the confused
judge, Alan Mowbray as the fru-
strated lawyer for the plaintiff. and

ates the artists only relative are
also handsomely rewarded by the
