J “Footloose Widows,” opens at the
Liberty theatre tonight. It is a com
edy of love run riot amid the enchant
; ing surroundings of an exclusive
| Florida winter resort. Two manne
i quins make one graind attempt to
'break into fashionable society, and be
come involved in a serious intrigue
j that leads to a series of hilariously
! embarassing situations. How they
! come through it all is disclosed in
I one of the most entertaining screen
j productions of the year.
■ j It is a production in which Louise
Fazenda plays the “wise” girl from
New York, who thinks she knows all
about the hearts, as well as the pock
etbooks of men. Jacqueline Logan
' and Jason Robards, featured in the
! supporting cast, supply the romantic
J love interests. But “Footloose Wid
ows” is primarily a comedy built
j for laughs, and Miss Fazenda will get
all the laughs you’ve got when you
see this picture.
Others in the cast are Arthur Hoyt,
Neely Edwards, Douglas Gerrard, Jane
