...Metropolitan opens its history with Adolphe Menjou in "The King on Main Street" an amusing and sophisticated farce on the troubles of Kings and things in general. Menjou lifts a supercilious eyebrow, shrugs a careless shoulder, and winks a languid eye with all the nonchalance generally associated with Kings.
