Photoplay Magazine for March, 1930 145 Brief Reviews of Current Pictures [ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 16 ] SCARLET DAREDEVIL, THE— World Wide.— A melodrama of the French Revolution from England, unusually well acted. Silent. {Sept.) SEA FURY — Supreme. — No sense taking this seriously. Regarded as a burlesque in the best Hoboken tradition it's a riot. All Talkie. (Dec.) SENOR AMERICANO— Universal.— See this, you fans who are crying for your Westerns. Ken Maynard rides, loves, fights — and sings. All Talkie. (Dec.) • SEVEN DAYS' LEAVE— Paramount.— Barrie's fine play, " The Old Lady Shows Her Medals," lias been tenderly and effectively transferred to the screen. Beryl Mercer and Gary Cooper are splendid. All Talkie. (Feb.) SEVEN FACES— Fox.— Paul Muni gives seven "best performances" in one picture! Good entertainment with a novel twist. All Talkie. (Jan.) • SEVEN KEYS TO BALDPATE— Radio Pictures.— A fine phonoplay version of the old laughter-and-thrill-provoking favorite. Richard Dix again battles the microphone to a knockout finish. All Talkie. (Feb.) SHANGHAI LADY— Universal.— A fille de joie and a crook fall in love and each pretends to be a "swell" for the other's benefit. But it's China and there's a menace. Mary Nolan is so beautiful it hurts. All Talkie. (Jan.) SHANNONS OF BROADWAY, THE— Universal.— There's not a comedy team on or off Broadway that can hold a dimmer to the Gleasons — James and Lucille. Acting and dialogue are gorgeous in this phonoplay. All Talkie. (Jan.) *' SHOW OF SHOWS— Warners.— You'll be too busy enjoying yourself to count all the celebs in this super-revue — but they're there — 77 of 'em. And besides there are stunning stage effects and dance routines, gorgeousTechnicolor, and millions of laughs. All Talkie. (Feb.) SIDE STREET— Radio Pictures.— No telling what this might have been if not botched by bad recording. As it is. just another underworld yarn. All three of the Moores are in it. All Talkie. (Dec.) If ever Art had a true martyr to her sacred cause, it is this hairy gent. Andy Clyde, the Sennett comic here shown in civilian clothes, has worn this scraggly beard for over a year, just for the sake of realism in the talkie masterpieces of immortal comedy in which he toils btr* ^ RED HANDS Make them white and soft with MENTHOLATUM TRI ALTUBE.
