Flight
Fancy flying — the best I ever saw. A real air saga, with the United States Marine Aviation Corps providing the thrills and Jack Holt, Ralph Graves and Lila Lee the romance. The fight between nine bombing planes and the Nicaraguan general com' manding his guerillas is tremendous. But the big spot is where a pilot crashes spectacularly. Not a sad film, but swell.
Big Time
Another of these back-stage hoofer stories, this time featuring Mae Clark and Lee Tracy, as the married couple. Josephine Dunn does her usual vamping act but Daphne Pollard, a hardboiled blonde seal trainer, and Stepin Fetchit, the back-stage porter, win the humor laurels. A human climax, where the wife, as a famous Hollywood star, is reunited with her husband.
Blackmail
A breath of something different is this alldialog picture, fresh from England, which opens with a fine staccato quality as Anna Ondra, a lovely Hungarian girl playing the English heroine, stabs an artist in his studio. Anna's fiancee, John Longden, happens to be a detective on the force at Scotland Yard — the detective headquarters of Great Britain. Torn between love and duty, love for his sweetheart on one hand and his duty to Scotland Yard on the other, Longden helps Anna conceal her crime. The highlight of the film is the excellent performance of one Donald Calthrop, as a blackmailer, who attempts to extort money from the young couple. Nearly every movie fan will enjoy this interesting story which brings British life and customs, and picturesque spots of dear old London.
Side Street
A home-spun story of three brothers in humble circles, one of whom goes crooked — the others rising to decent professions. This will prove interesting to many fans since three real brothers play the roles — Tom, Matt and Owen Moore, with Kathryn Perry, in off-stage life, Owen's wife, enacting the heroine. Matt gives an excellent, restrained performance.
Tonight At Twelve
A lot of our old friends are in this one — Madge Bellamy, George Lewis, Margaret Livingston, Vera Reynolds and Norman Trevor among them. George is an only child, with Madge so much in love that she takes a job as maid in a neighboring house. A lot of hocus-pocus, with papa, Robert Ellis, running wild. Madge gets her Georgie and the audience gets relief.
