GRAND
“ME, GANGSTER’’
Those who dislike the hackneyed underworld typo of story with its details of sordid murders need have no fears about seeing the fine film. “Me, Gangster,” which will be shown at the Grand Theatre this evening. There is not a machine-gun in the entire pictured story, murder is not committed, there is no enmity between law breakers and police, yet there always is poignant, human drama, thrills, suspense, romance, battles of wits, battles of brawn with no scene that is not as natural as it is logical. From all of this one can gather that “Me Gangster,” as a story of the underworld, is refreshingly different; Terry, juvenile, playing the lead in his first* picture, is a real artist in Walsh’s hands, and June uollyer is more beautiful than ever. Anders Kundolf. Carol Lombard. Jc-e Brown, Nigel De Brulier, Arthur Stone, Stella Adams and Burr Mclntosh are part of the brilliant supporting cast. “The Fleet's In,” the bright Clara Bow story, will also be shown.
General Wiatsheslav Savitsky, the Russian cavalry veteran, who is a member of the troop of Uhlans in “The Awakening,” spent lour years lighting the very troops whom he. now represents during i ie World AS ur on tlio Eastern fronts
