THE Screen f "The Big Broadcast of 1936" Is The Last Word In Entertainment It Has Everything — Stars, Laughs, Songs, A Dancing Chorus And Romance. ONCE in a while a picture comes along that sets a new standard and makes you feel that at last perfection has been reached— that nothing can ever surpass its all around excellence. Such a picture is Paramount's "Big Broadcast of 1936." The reason of course is that the players are so completely competent that they can make the most of the excellent songs and comedy dialogue. Jack Oakie, George Burns and Gracie Allen, Lyda Roberti, Wendy Barrie, Henry Wadsworth, Bing Crosby, Amos 'n' Andy, Ethel Merman, Mary Boland, Charles Ruggles and the many other talented stars in this picture carry screen entertainment to a new high. "Isn't love the sweetest thing, Georgie-Porgie?" Gracie Allen and George Burns in Paramount's masterpiece. 8 Silver Screen
