Y THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, SEPT. 15 1933. BEBE DANIELS ALINE MacMAHON | Flying Fins Late News Events 'STRONG CAST " APPEARS IN CAPITOL FILM Edward G.Ebinson Has Lead in ‘Silver Dollar’ Opening' Tonight Edward G. Robinson, star of “Silver Dollar,” a First National picture which opens at the Capitol Theatre tonight, has the most dazzling role of his career in a character that parallels that of Haw Tabor, Colorado’s sensation- al Silver King of the gold rush and silver strikes. He is said to have achieved his greatest dramatic triumph in his portrayal .of this historically im- portant, although somewhat biz- arre personage, whose spectacular rise from poverty to a multi-mil- lionnaire was the talk of the na- tions, and whose love romance was a scandal of Denver and Washing- ton society. Gone into the background of memory is the modern gangster and gunman of ‘Little Caesar” and “Smart Money,” as Robinson blossoms forth as the Croesus of the West, political leader and U. S, Senator. But the same un- canny ability to_interpret the true character of the “big shot” crook is displayed in a sympathetic un- derstanding of vain, swashbuckling, Yates Martin., An unusually strong cast includes Bebe Daniels, Aline MacMahon, Jobyna Howland, DeWitt Jennings, Robert Warwick, Russell Simpson, Harry Holman; and Charles Mid- dleton. The picture was adapted from David Karsner's book of the same title by Carl Erickson and Har- vey Thew. It was, directed by Al- fred E. Green.
