THE MOVIEGOER

At Loew's State & Orpheum

First party wishes to divorce second party; but second party isn't married to first party, only subs for fictitious third party. First party and second party marry to get a divorce, then change their minds, fourth party to the contrary notwithstanding.

This is, concisely, the plot of "Third Finger, Left Hand," involving Myrna Loy, Mclvyn Douglas, and plenty of healthy nonsense. Myrna and Mclvyn make ideal partners, outsmarting and nonplussing each other in that sadistic spirit that unravels itself into love. Altogether it's clean fun, though less so than "I Love You Again," whatever the ads say. And Myrna still shines at flippancy, but it gets progressively harder to love her again.
