SUNDAY, MARCH 9, 1924 Theatricals GREAT ‘CROOK’ DRAMA AT THE RIALTO 15 SUPERB PRODUCTION “Big Brother,” a Rex Beach story and a Paramount picture, featuring Tom Moore, Raymond Hatton and Edith Roberts was shown for the first time at the Rialto theater last night. It’s an Allan Dwan produc- tion and something really big in the line of entertainment. The theme is that old, yet ever- new topic of regeneration. The story centers around one Jimmy Donovan and a little fellow, Midge, an orphan ieft mbsolutely alone in the world when his ‘big brother’ fs killed at the season's big social event, the an- nual dance of the Pat McGraw Pas- time Club. Big Ben Murrey was Jim's pal and Donovan’s last words to his faithful Meutenant were a promise to bring the kid up right. He fights a terrific battle with him- if and finally manages to go strat though he hates the police. Aceused of the theft of his firm's STRONGHEART DOES FINE WORK IN DRAMA OF THE NORTHLAND Strongheart, Mrs. Strongheart andJ splendid sequence of comedy five little Stronghearts are all in| pathos with no human appearing in the cast of “The Love Master,” the First National picture which 1s clos- ing at the America theater today. Heer since Stfongheart {imped into fame as a star in “The Silent Call” fans have been writing. “Give him a chance to do more,” and in “The Love Master” Laurence Trim- ble, his trainer and director, gives a full hearted response to this demand. For “The Love Master” is Strong- heart's story from the beginning to the end. He is there “doing his stuff" every foot of the film and developing one of the . finest dra- matic productions that we have ever had the pleasure of seeing. Strongheart has deserted his legal » master to go with his love master to seek refuge in a northern trading post. His master, played by Harold Austin, is attracted immediately by Sally the niece of the two men who own thé general store, and Strong- heart sets about winning the heart of Sally so that he may turn it over to his master. This accomplished he turns to the satisfaction of his own heart tugs. and there follows a Pay-roll, Donovan does a Houdini out of his handcuffs and starts hot- footed on the trail of the real thieves —Cokey Joe Miller and his gang, re- trieving at the risk of his own life the money—in fact he is seriously Wounded. The authorities are in- formed of the case and in apprecia- tion, the cops are admonished to “lay off Jimmy Donovan, he’s turn- ed straight"—not that the Czar of the Car Barn gang wi chicken- hearted or even a “sis,"—rather a gentleman who had become a gang- ster through circumstance and turn- ed the well known leave for Midge’s sake—and a girl, Mickey Bennett, as Midge Murray, is one of the cleverest juvenile actors the screen has ever seen. The whole thing is superbly done—an- other Dwan triumph—a gripping story, simply though convincingly Produced, It's a great crook drama. and any of the scenes, Strongheart gains his heart's desire and so re* turns to find if there is anything more he can do for his master. There is plenty. His master is down with pneumonia. Strongheart nurses him through that with the assistance of the girl and one of her uncles, No one who sees it will ever forget the physical fight Strong- heart has with death and his victory This done it develops that Strong. heart stil has to help his master to happiness. The young man needs money to clear his name, and the anual dog race, if the first prize can be got, offers the best chance. Then comes the thrills of the pic- ture, and they are thrills.
