I submarines, secret doors, secret panels, and hot love and hot hate and what-not thrown together to make the pulse beat faster. The hero must needs masquerade as a government spy employed by an obtuse foreign agent. He must guard his identity so that he represents a wolf in sheep's clothing to the girl — who in turn must protect the munitions plant at all costs. Wild and rapid and carrying many hair-breadth escapes. The flag waves at the finish. Louis Sherwin, who once scorned such plots as a dramatic critic, prepared the scenario. Shirley Mason is the plucky heroine, Charles Jones the intrepid hero. Forget its improbabilities and enjoy its thrills. T he Victor Prize-fights have become so common that they have penetrated the movies. But a good fight like the one staged in "The Abysmal Brute" doesn't happen along every day. "The Victor" is a weak, gymnasium bout in comparison. It features Herbert Rawlinson as an impoverished Englishman given to saying "jolly well," "topping," and other Piccadilly expressions the while he bounds around in search of a job. He knocks out the middleweight champion in a restaurant brawl — and is promoted as likely talent for the coveted crown. The fight scene is very tame. Eddie Gribbon is the "pug" who hits the resin and stays there. Rawlinson is more subdued here than usual. A single-track story — lacking punch and vitality. Come prepared to sleep. Man and Wife A mad array of improbable episodes which, because of their wildness, will appeal to one's sense of humor. The stuff of which this impossible movie is made concerns a runaway farm girl who marries a city surgeon. He is called out of town, leaving her in charge of his despicable cousin. A wire calls him back saying that she is dead, having lost her life in a. restaurant fire. So he goes to the farm to rest — not knowing that it is her erstwhile home. The madness, of this plot continues. He courts and marries her meek sister within six months. Then the first wife bobs up very much alive, but very much insane. Cousin had taken her motoring and an accident resulted. So Mr. Surgeon operates successfully. Meanwhile wife number 2 is busy sewing upon baby clothes — a scene that wont, pass in Pennsylvania. Here's a pretty pickle ! The author extricates himself by having the first wife go insane again and a second operation kills her. All for the sake of an unborn babe. And they waste time selecting such hopeless stuff as this. A mad, bad, sad movie. Radio-Mania The author of this fanciful story had no other recourse but to employ the dream situation, since the idea revolves around communication with Mars. The radio craze was destined to become popularized for the screen, but it could have been treated with more ingenuity than is noticeable here. Merely placing a busy inventor in a deep sleep and causing his imagination to run riot over the perfection of his powerful radio which will enable him to talk with the Martians will hardly suffice. It could have been treated with subtle satire— surely with more imagination. The sleep episodes introduce the Martians according to the popular theory — carrying huge heads and ears upon their puny bodies. The story stops in its tracks very often to introduce a weak and arbitrary romance. In fact, there is nothing to it, but a capitalization of the radio craze.
