H oil know what "WHAT PRICE GLORY" did for the trade and is still doing — But it was a silent picture NOW you have "The Cock Eyed World," all talking, singing, laughing— and what it will do to draw coin into the box-offices is nobody's business. And., if you want a few hot reasons why you won't see or hear a better picture inl929— get a load of this. The Cock Eyed World has SPEED, PUNCH, LOVE and rip-roaring COMEDY A TITLE alone that's worth the money . . .Walsh, McLaglen, Lowe — the same trio that clicked with "Glory" . . . Marines in action, at plav and at love. A. million laughs, a tear or two, music, madness, hope, despair, lusty bawdiness and what the French call "Le Sport" . . . It's an outdoor picture with natural outdoor sounds — which only Fox Movietone is capable of producing. IF this is not Box-office . .then REX BEACH IS A SUMMER RESORT Sez You ! Big League IF your audiences dote on cream puff entertainment, pass up the following because there can be no interest for you in what this column thinks about "The Cock-Eyed World." If, however, the gang goes for strong entertainment with guts and belly laughs running through its two hour footage, it is important information to learn that a big leaguer is about to start on its box-office way Loaded With Dough You would expect a story like this to be two-fisted. It is. The dialogue is man's dialogue which means it is usually rough. Yet the laughs are there planted against a colorful and actionful background. The picture is loaded with production and, not so incidentally, with money as well. K ANN Tim m m m mm m ^^H HH m Sez We! I m
