GRAND THEATRE
TO-NIGHT. "The Devil is Driving," a Paramount picture which opened last night at the Grand Theatre, is a finely constructed melodrama which fully lives up to its unusual title and to the quality of its cast, headed b'y such players as Edmund Lowe, Wynne Gibson, Lois Wilson and Allan Dinehart. The story is set against the background of a big city garage which is used only incidentally for the storage of cars. Its principal purpose is to ' serve as a "blind" for an .organised auto-theft ring. Stolen cars are driven in, rebuilt so that they cannot be recognisea and then resold. Lowe in the role of an easy-going mechanic, doesn't care much about 'the shady aspect of the situation until the gang operating it seriously injures his young nephew and then murders the boy's father when h'e sets out for revenge. The revenge that Lowe gets with teh assistance of Miss Gibson, night-cluh hostess, brings the picture to a dramatic climax.
