CROOKED CIRCLE— World Wide
A FEARLESS expose of police methods and the crooked power behind the cop, dramatically and forcefully told. Eric Linden is great as a bellhop who witnesses a gang murder, is forced to take the blame and is beaten into a confession by the police. It's a gripping, timely story which should stir every citizen. Sidney Fox, Frank Sheridan and others give powerful performances.
A SNAPPY little mystery comedy with plenty of fun, some spooky happenings, and a share of laughs. A lot of the action takes place in a haunted house, with ZaSu Pitts as a maid and Jimmie Gleason as a cop turning in more than their quota of laughs. Ben Lyon and Irene Purcell supply the romance. There are some thrilling surprises in store at the end of the picture. Good stuff.
THOSE WE LOVE— World Wide
THE THRILL OF YOUTH— First DivisionInvincible
A SLOW moving story about a novelist, his self-sacrificing wife, another woman and the son who brings mama and papa back together again. Lilyan Tashman's amazing clothes and Mary Astor's charm and sincerity almost save this from the doldrums — but not quite. Kenneth MacKenna, Kay Francis' husband, leaves his directorial megaphone to act in this one. The picture gets off to a good start; too bad it misses.
FAIR entertainment, although not very logical in plot. The rather rambling story is about a young couple and an older pair who finally find their way to happiness. Lucy Beaumont is fine as an indulgent grandmother, and you'll recognize two other favorites of silent days — Ethel Clayton and Bryant Washburn. Cast includes June Clyde, Allen Vincent, Matty Kemp, Dorothy Peterson, George Irving and Tom Ricketts.

THE THIRTEENTH GUEST— First DivisionMonogram
C
HANDU, the magician of the radio, comes to the screen, a mysterious, forceful character in an exciting picture. Elaborate and eerie settings add greatly to the effect, while Edmund Lowe well interprets the role of Chandu, modern worker of magic. Bela Lugosi makes a shivering Roxor who steals the death ray. Ooh! What awful things happen. The kids and dad, too, will thrill to this one.
BETTER take a hot-water bottle with you, to counteract the chills that will race down your spine. For here is a real murder mystery thriller, but with bright dialogue and enough comedy to offset the horror. Frances Rich (daughter of Irene) shines in a supporting role, her first. Ginger Rogers and Lyle Talbot are good, but J. Farrell MacDonald very nearly steals the show. [ additional reviews on page 118 ]
