AND MRS. SMITH’ TO
SHOW AT PALACE THIS WEEK
Co-starring Carole Lombard
and Robert Montgomery, who are
seen together for the first time,
“Mr. & Mrs. Smith” presents
these top favorites in a riotous
social comedy of a young Park
Avenue lawyer and the woman
who for three years has been ac-
cepted as his wife. “Mi. & Mrs.
Smith” will show at the i’alace
Theatre Saturday midnight, Sun-
day and Monday.
Weaving its story deftly
around the marital life of this
highly modern pair and the uni-
que domestic rules by which they
live, the film hits a crisis when
the two discover that their wed-
ding was illegal. In their emotion-
al rebound they find their ro-
mance has become a triangle,
with the lawyer’s partner step-
ping in as a rival for the hero-
ine’s handi — if; of course, she
doesn't remarry his associate.
And, for various reasons, she
isn’t at all sure she does want to
remarry him, although he franti-
cally endeavors to induce her to
do :o. The upshot of it all is that
the three principals wind up at
Lake Placid in a hectic and hi'a
rious finale as both nie-i grimly
press the lady to make up her
mind.
Giving both stars notable op-
portunities to display their mirth-
provoking talents to the full, the
picture features Gene Raymond
as the partner, with Philip Meri-
vale and Lucile Watson as his
dignified Southern parents, and
Jack Carson as a playboy.
Laid in ultra-modern surround-
ings, the film’s settings include
two Park Avenue apartments, an
office suite, an exclusive men’s
club, a big department store and
a resort hotel and cabin at Lake
Placid. In addition to the featur-
ed players and the two stars,
such favorites as William Tracy,
Charles Halton, Esther Dale,
Betty Compson and Adele Pearce
have important supporting roles.
