Vol. 14 December 6, 1929 No. 31 DAILY^ MOTION __ •» B <U> u v, a/ REVIEW PICTURES T O D AY Published Daily Except Sunday. Arthur James, Editor and Publisher BOY , WHAT A PICTURE ! When Edmund (Moulding set out to produce “The Grand Parade” for Patlie, he applied to it originality and show brains and wove into the structure attraction values which make it a grand parade indeed. The grand parade in this case is going to be a parade of customers to the box offices for this picture is a natural, made-to-order hit. It was written and produced by Mr. GouUling and directed by Fred JVewmeyer and the credited stars are Helen Twelvetrees and Fred Scott, but in the cast are Kichard Carle, Marie Astair, Eussell Powell, Sam Blum, Tom Malone, Jimmie Adams, Bud Jamieson, “Spec” O’Donnell and Jimmy Aubrey. Judged entirely by their performances, we proclaim this as finely a balanced group of talent as we have seen in ten years. The story is the life of Kelly, a minstrel singer who goes to the bottom through drink and then comes to the top through the love of Molly, a slavey. With this simple motif, a tremendously human and absorbing story has been developed and it is done with skill and charm and speed, action and color. It is musically splendid and its tender elements are done without the slop sentiment which is so objectionable in some pictures of this type. Here is a picture for the classes, the masses and the works. A. J.
