HOLLYWOOD, June 11 — Right out of New York comes word Jack Warner has added “The Two Mrs. Carrolls” to his list of New York plays. Jack, who has spent money unstintingly for New York hits, is starting with a schedule that is terrific from the standpoint of an investment in screen material.

The price reported paid for this murder thriller is $225,000. It was the play in New York with Elizabeth Bergner and Victor Jory. It’s old-fashioned melodrama but the kind the theatergoing public eats up.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel.
