THIS WEEK AT THE CINEMA
---*--
Gamla Bio
NinotcMa.
The comrades Buljanow (Fel-
ix Bressart), Iranow and Kop-
alski are sent by the Soviet go-
vernment to Paris in order to
sell the Countess Swana’s je-
wels. Her entire property had
been expropriated when she
fled to Paris after the Russian
revolution. While they are
staying at one of the most ex-
pensive hotels of Paris, the
countess (Ina Claire) sends her
friend Count Leon to try to
pinch the jewels. He succeds
in playing a nasty trick upon
the two comrades, and they
have to accept the decision of a
French court as to the owner-
ship of the Jewels.
They have quite forgotten all
about Moskva when comrade
Ninotchka (Garbo) arrives in
Paris in order to keep an eye
on the two gentlemen and fix
the sale.
Comrade Ninotchka is ex-
extremely conscientious and a
very serious-minded young
girl. She immediately takes
measure to reseover the jewels
engages the best available law-
yers and does everything in her
power that the Soviet govern-
ment may win.
The comrades are very much
afraid of the serious Ninotchka
and ask Count Leon to try to
mahe her forgire them.
Of course the count will do
this, as he has met Ninotchka
on the previous night and found
her quite charming.
At first Ninotchka is very seri-
ous but the count is persistent
and at last succeeds in making
her laugh, and that becomes a
turning-point in her outlook. In
one night she turns into a gay
and livily girl, intersted bnly
in the latest fashion* and ev-
en allows Count Leon to make
love to her.
There is no need to reveal
more of this charming story, ex-
cept that the changed Ninolchka
has at last to choose bet wen her
work in Soviet and Count Leon.
Of course she chooses — well,
go and see for your self.

Romance of the
Redwoods.
The story by Jack London.
It is on a beautiful night that
Jed Malone (Gordon Oliver)
comes to the Redwoods, hoping
to get a job with Boss Whittak-
er (Alan Bridge). The loggers
are drinking beer at Mrs.
Manning’s, and Steve Blake
(Charles Blickford) and Whit-
taker are balancing — not on
rolling logs, but on rolling bar-
rels — with filled tumblers,
trying not to spill a drop of the
beer. In this competition Whit-
taker is beaten by Steve.
Jed comes to the shack and
asks for a job, but is turned
down by Whittaker, who doesn’t
like the way he is dressed
nor his having a car. At last,
however, Jed is taken on at the
request of June Martin (Jean
Parker).
Steve and Jed become good
friends and work together at
sawing logs. Both of them are
in love with June, but she pre-
fers Jed. On the day when they
are married Jed and Steve are
working alone out in the
woods and Jed is killed by an
accident. Steve is accused of
having killed Jed, arrested and
tried but finally found not
quilty and acquitted. The log-
gers, however, do not believe
in his innoncence and refuse to
have anything to do with him.
At last the situation becomes
intolerable _ for Steve and he
leaves camp. June is the only
One who knows that he is in-
nocent.
On the day Steve is leaving,
a terrific fire breaks out in the
Redwoods. Whittaker and his
gang of loggers are caught in
the fire but at the last moment
rescued by Steve. Happy end.
