From the Front Row Revlews and News of Waahmgton L] Thesters. “The Spollers” at R-K-O Keith's Gives Cooper a Strong Role. AmlNfi 6 complete exhaus- tion, Gary Coovper and Wil- lam de ol the cast of “The Spoilers,” at R. K. O. Keith's, enact a scefe which it would be hard to duplicate in the films. The fight is typical of the spirit of Rex Beach's famous novel of the days of Alaska’s "gold = Tush and also is a part of the climax of the story. Glenister, the hero of the story and the character. _that furnighes Coop- er with a role of his generally accepted type. settles with McNamara, Jeader of claim jumpers, the question of su- premacy, after throwing all firearms out of the window. Not only is the fight staged with all the force that human ingenuity and vigor can devise, but it also has a most sensational setting, as a room 1s completely wrecked and the cham- plons of justice and tmposition, re- spectively, are carried into the open by the fierceness of their onslaughts, while the entire community gathers around to watch the final blows There is also & bagtle of smaller proportions but equal energy at the ‘wharf when the ship leaves with the gold seekers for the North, and men and women are forced to struggle for the opportunity to get aboard and be on their way to fortune. Striking incidents of an attempt at mob violence attract the atten- tion, as a multitude swarms to the hiding place of gold which the miners believe has been stolen under authority of the law by corrupt officials. The scene is illuminated and made more vivid as these marching men break into a war song, paraphrased, on their way. Scenes in the old settlement of Nome, on a large scale, are repro- duced in this talking version of the atory, while the placet 6f amusement are shown in full operation, adding color to the production. While “The Spoilers” \is familiar to the public, this picture, accompanied by sound, furnishes continuous enter- tainment, appealing to the taste for the rugged scenes of primitive life and the search for sudden fortune. Gary Cooper. " town. Perhaps it sit up and take notice. Other acts include Rene Riano and the Chester Hale Girls in otch form. The Palace ‘hestra, newsreels and comedies complete the bill E. de 8. M. Marx Bros. Run Riot In “Animal Crackers.” new picture at the Columbia is easily the funniest thing in i8 the funniest thing that has ever come to town Certainly, for the better part of an hour and a half the Marx Brothers send laughter roaring into the rafters by their idiocies in “Animal Crackers™ There 15 something about these fourewcr rather three—comedians distinct from all. others. They pro- voke mirth with absolutely no ef- fort. - They never do much that is new, and they mever fail to_make a gag funny even if—in the flesh—it u»nz funny at sll. Groucho turns to his unseen sudience after a pret- ty feeble poke and says, “Well, you cnnt expect them all to be good!” From beginaing to end there is not a whit of sense in this film. It is all good old farce on the gran- diose scale. It seems, too, infinitely better than its stage ancestor, hav- ing discarded much of the drawn- out chorus shamblings and the love- interest necessary for the last three rows. There is, of course, something of a plot——about a famous picture that is stolen, restolen, and so forth. But that is best forgot—in fact it is Only the Marx Brothers Unfortunately, neither Harpo nor Chico spends much time at the harp and the plano. Short selections on these are all that they allow. But these, as in any of their shows, are distinctly some of the best of their talent—and if the audience could show appreciation they would prob- ably have to keep playing for some time. Groucho seems at his best through all this, dominating the fra- terity more than ever before. The fourth member. Beppo, it as incon- sequential as ever. Newsreels, comedies and the Co- lumbia Orchestra follow this mad- cap and hilarious feature film. E. de 8. M.
