Robert Montgomery Delights Audience Craterian Showing There's a happy-go-lucky, fast and witty comedy at the Crateriao thea tre. It's "Llva. Love, and Learn." with Robert Montgomery. Rosalind Russell and Robert Benchley In the leading roles, and Helen Vinson. Mickey Rooney and Monty Woolly also fea tured. You might aay, In a sense, Mont gomery does the living. Mist Russell the loving, and Benchley, the learn ing, if any. For It's that kind. of a picture. Montgomery la a Greenwich Village artist. He doesn't make much money but he has a lot of fun. One day a fox hound disturbs htm at work but the girl who tumblea off her horse virtually onto hla lap la even more disturbing. A burst of temper ament on the part of both and they are old friends. And tmperamentl natures being a they are, they fall in love. Rosalind flings aside her social life and goes to live with her artist husband in hia garret atudio. From then on, lot of things begin to happen. One day Bob is painting in the park and he asks s sailor iiow he likes the picture. The sailor thlnka it pretty lousy ao Bob asks a marine his opinion. The marine likes It. Result a grand melee of sailors and marines and Bob's name sperad all over the headlines for starting the scrap. Then reporters to see him t his garret and the fun Bob and Rosa lind, with the aid of Robert Bench iley (Oscar), have In throwing them down the stairs is culminated In a surprising discovery that their last victim, upon whom they do their best or worst is actually a famous art dealer. Then success, fame and a swelled head for Artist Bob. Also a walkout by wlfie, Rosalind, but Ossified Oscar comes to the rescue and makes everything all right and the film winds up on a merry note that's about as mad as the Marx Brothers could think up. All In all. a swell show to see - when you want to forget your troubles and just have a whale of a good time.
