FINE FILMS AT BRITANNIA
Those who dislike the hackneyed underworld type of story, with its details of sordid murders, need have no fears about seeing the fine film, “Me, Gangster,” now at the Britannia Theatre. “Me, Gangster,” based on Charles Francie Coe’s story, which ran as a serial in the “Saturday Evening Post,” and has been published in book form, was directed by Raoul Walsh along progressive lines. 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.
