Marx Brothers Return To Craterian Screen In "Room Service" Today
"MTDFOTCD MATL TRTBTTNR "NrEDFOTID OTfEOON". STXDAT. OCTfVB'FT? IX miS.
FUNNIEST FILM TO
DATE PROMISED IN
Absent from the screen for more
than a year, the Marx Brothers make
an auspicious return In what is said
to be their funniest to date, "Room
Service," opening a three day run to
day at the Craterian theatre.
A Movie quiz picture, "Room Serv
ice" was adapted from the smaMi
comedy that had Broadway In an up
roar for more thn sixty one weeks,
and provides the three zanies with a
ready-made story embodying the
dizzy situations and rollicking com
plications which always fit their pe
culiar comedy style. And. as usual,
the Marxes add some of their own
Ideas to the story.
In "Room Service," a shoestring
producer wants to stage a fostlight
epic without spending a penny.
(Groucho, of course). He and his cast
of twenty-two put up at a splendid
hotel and are $1,200 In arrears. He
lures - an "angel" with $15,000 Into
tils trap to finance the hazardous
venture. Employing ingenious meth
ods, he and his two loyal assistants,
(Harpo and Chico). struggle desper
ately because "the show must go on"
and the result Is a mirth-packed
entertainment.
Story with the Marx Bros, doesn't
mean a thing. It's what they do to
the story that counts. The hilarious
Structure of the plot Is built up by
. series of suspense-packed high
lights which keep the laughter roll
ing to the very end. The unexpected
arrival of the author In search of
his advance royalties; the backer who
la tricked into financing the show:
he ever became the producer's brother-in-law:
the hotel supervisor who
finances the play without knowing
it: the hectic ruses by which the
madcap Marxes restrain all interfer
ence until the curtain goes up It's
one steady stream of fun-making.
In the supporting cast are Ann
Miller and Lucille Ball, two of Hol
lywood's most promising starlets; and
Frank Albertson. The other principal
roles ere filled by the players who
created the parts for the stage play
who have certainly become profi
cient enough to know exactly how to
time each comedy sequence to get
the greatest laugh.

dies during the Spanish-American
war. Reduced to sudden poverty, the
five Careys bravely endeavor to make
a go of their lives. Their plans to
operate a boarding house plans
which run into unforseen difficulties
and dual romances between the

and between the younger daughter
and their landlord doctor, lead to the
various complications and dramatic
situations of the plot.
