FILM FOLLIES “Flying pollywogs, what a night for the poor sailor boys at sea!” “Any Old Port” Offers Realistic Ocean Scene The Christies went to sea on the Pacific Ocean and in the studio in making a realistic presentation of scenes of an ocean liner on fire at night for the comedy Any Old Port, which features Neal Burns. As one of the reviewers said after seeing the picture, it is hard to tell where the Christies are at sea and where they are on land so well is the detail of the sets carried out. Any Old Port has a lot of laughs scattered around the rolling staterooms and slippery decks. It is Burns’ next appearance in the Christie Comedies after Oh Promise Me, and follows such pictures as 'Tis the Bull and Fair Enough, which featured Bobby Vernon and Dorothy Devore, respectively. Can you imagine taking a bowl of goldfish for an ocean trip and then have them get drowned in a shipwreck? ANY OLD PORT Featuring NEAL BURNS Directed bv SCOTT SIDNEY Story by FRANK R. CONKLIN Photographed by ULLMAN and WALSH THE CAST The traveler Neal Burns His wife Josephine Hill The other girl Alice Maison A stowaway Henry Murdock Many a good man is the innocent victim of a circumstance like this.
