In my opinion, ‘The Rains Came’ is a great picture.” YOUR WEEK’S PROGRAM AT THE JOY THEATRE LAUREL, HARDY TURN TO PAN­ TOMINE IN “FLYING DEUCES’’— Thursday and Friday, February 8 and 9 “BROTHER RAT AND A BABY” There are still millions who in­ sist that pantomine is the essense of comedy. So while Charlie Chaplin, last remaining champion of pantomine, is preparing an all-talking picture, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy have striven to eliminate as much dia­ logue as possible in their current KKO Radio feature comedy, “The Flying Deuces.” The picture is approximately six­ ty per cent pantomine. Every effort was made to use only enough spok­ en lines to carry the story along. Little if any dependence has been placed on gags. The three most important—and what should prove the most amus­ ing sequence— in the picture are entirely in pantomime. Credited with the comedians in a departure from the usual is Boris Morros, who insists that “comedians talk too much.” Making his debut in Hollywood with this picture as an independent producer, Morros has provided a musical score that augments every comedy situation, with the tricks of harps, wood, wind and brass speak­ ing louder than words. The producer describes his initial effort as a “Silly Symphony of Comedy with living characters.” Saturday, February 10 DOUBLE FEATURE Sunday and Monday February 11 and 12 10YPOWERBREHT BraiuU lore, tupi iraca ■ Hana Outpruhfr , SckWaci - Wan Nub 'ana Dar well Italiana taaSaau ■ Haul) Tiaaan • H.
