The Filmgoers' Annual HERE we have a joyous talking picture translation of the play by Ian Hay. The central character is an anti-gambling crank whose greed leads him not only to back horses, but also to make a book, with the result that he cannot meet his obligations. He is well and truly ducked by his indignant clients, and regains his normal state of mind only when he learns that his wife, in ignorance THE SPORT OF KINGS and by accident, has won enough money to repay all his losses. " The Sport of Kings " is an uproarious, wholesome comedy .which will appeal to all classes of filmgoers. Its authentic English atmosphere is a sheer delight. " The Sport of Kings," which had its premier London presentation at the Tivoli, was directed by Victor Saville, who has since made the talking picture translation of " Hindle Wakes."
