Summary

Between Christmas and the Chinese New Year, it is appropriate that the Coronet should screen two pictures featuring the Carnival spirit – the 'Merry-Go-Round' and 'Rosita.' It was quite apparent from its reception on Sunday that it would attract more than the average cinema patrons, and the 'house' last night again demonstrated that where Mary Pickford is featured congregate the crowds. 'Rosita' will be shown at the Coronet until Wednesday, after which the venue will be changed to the Star Theatre. For the information of those who have not yet seen 'Rosita,' it may be said that the street scenes of the Carnival show greater crowds than the tournament scenes in Douglas Fairbanks' 'Robin Hood.'
