PLAZA
“THE COCK-EYED WORLD” “Believe it or not.” as Ripley would say. but there is a well defined notion iu the minds of film critics that Raoul Walsh has surpassed, directoriallv and in many other ways, his former worldwide success, “What Price Glory" with his current production. “The Cock-Eyed World.” In fact, the latter which is now at tho Plaza Theatre’ might well be called an all-talking classic of the “Devil Dogs” in so-called peace times. There are many contributing reasons for this prediction: for with the advent of talking pictures, there is a marked breadth of technical advance in picture production as demonstrated by the results achieved by Walsh. Nor will anyone deny that both Edmund Lowe and Victor McL&gfea have climbed many steps up the ladder of cinema fame since their former effort by reason of commendable portrayals in other important Fox pictures. But in none have they appeared to better advantage than in this epic of the marines.
