Summary
The very fine programme put on at the Victoria Theatre last night drew a most appreciative audience. The main feature was the five-part film 'The Spender,' which is one of the most exciting and strongly-acted dramas screened in Hong Kong for a long time past. The beautiful Pathe colour-film depicting sensory on the shores of Lake Dal in Kashmir was much enjoyed, while the other items in the programme were French war pictures, an American Gazette and 'The Big Idea,' a very funny Harold Lloyd film. The programme is being repeated tonight while tomorrow further episodes of 'The Seven Pearls' will be screened.
