G Robinson, Bebe Dantels, and Aline MacMahon “Silver Dollar,” which opened at, the Capitol Theatre last night, is an astounding drama, one of the few really great' masterpieces of the screep, in which Edward G. Robinson ungquestionably gives his greatest performance. Its characters reflect the- envir- | onment in which they actually, lived and loved and fought and toiled. They are of that fascin-| | ating type of reckless, dauntless spirits of daring and adventure | that led them to face the untold hardships of the wilderness and | to conquer new worlds. < The most amazing of all these | figures in the building of the | Great West was Yates Martin, Colorado silver king, a counterpart of the character portrayed by Ed- ward G. Robinson in this First | National picture; | bizarre, so fantastic, that his reck- | less spending of millions made him a national figure in his day. The characters of the “Silver Era,” have been drawn in all their vivid coloring by David Karsner in the novel from which this ne'er to be forgotten epic of the screen, has been dramatized. No such en- deavor to bring back so . import- ant and so picturesque a. period in the history of America has re- cently been attempted, and . never beforz has this particular era of the early mining days of Colorado ever been presented on stage or, screen. Bebe Daniels, back on the screen for the first time in more than a year, not having appeared sh}cc the birth of her baby, is younger seemingly, and more charmin than ever as the frivilois and beautiful bloride 'who steals the affections of Edward G. Robinson from his first wife. “Aline MacMahon presztns the | of the finest characterizationsthat | nas ever come to the\scréen in the portrayal of the hard work- ing, common sense, pioneer wife, who molded her husband for suc- a character SO in the Anchorage|cess during their period of pover- The little girl ty, only to have him desert her for a pretty face when he had ob- MODERN DAY S THEME OF PLAY ‘No Otherfiw—oman" with .Irene Dunn, Charles Bick- ford.and Gwili Andre Irene Dunn, Charles Bickford and Gwili Andre, stars of Other Woman,” RKO-Radib pic- ture opening tonight at the Coli- seum Theatre, form the splendid cast that gives an entirely new verve to the eternal triangle, with the vitality and realism of their performmance. “No Other Woman” is a real- istic dramd of modern marriage | and morals, full of romance, con- fliet, intrigue and humor. The story begins against the grim' back- ground of the steel workers and their ‘glaring furnaces, and ends among the luxurious surroundings | | gl | of great wealth.

Tomorrow's 2rogram “The Sign of the Cross,” great feature presented by Cecil B. De- Mille with a huge cast and mag- nificent settings, will open at the Capitol Thealre tomorrow after- noon. This is the first great sound spectacle picture to reach the screen and successfully proves that De Mille can bend sound to his will. Great epic-drama of pagan Rome, “The Sign of the Cr¢ has a fine cast of including Claudette Colbert, Elissa Landi, Frederic March and Charles | Laughton, suppcrted by 7500 oth- ers. ———————— Attending the movies is about the only recreation Gov. Dave Sholtz of Florida has been able to fit into his busy life. | even though he is’ proud to be a| steel ‘worker, proud of his strength | and loves to toil and sweat. Through the success of Joe, with | the backing of Anna, in perfecting | a new dye formula, they all be-| come rich and Jim and Anna find themselves in a different world. Jim finds that putting over a| business deal becomes as thrilling as making steel, trips from Pms-’ burg to New York take on a new | and spley flavor when he meets| ™ Margot, played by Gwili Andre. Dramatic Scene The affair becomes gossip and | Anna starts out to prevent him | from making a fool of himself, re- fuses to divorce him and falls.| One of the big dramatic scenes of the picture is in the divorce court, where one exciting bombshell is| exploded after another, and Irene Dunn has one of thé most tremen- dous scenes of her caresr. “No Other Womah' is from the play “Just a Woman,” by Eugehe Walter, and in addition to the leads has a Ssplendid auppuwng: cast. e o e nd An old ordinance makes it 1llcgul} to wash a horse on the streets of Charlotte, N.
