Her Right to Live" which is the
Dixie's big feature for today, tells the
story of young orphan girl who is
little mother to family of brothers
and sisters. The action has one dra.
matte idea which has not been given
the skillful introduction it deserves.
The details leading up to the. main
situation are rather tedious at times.
The plot follows the life story of the
girl who is adopted by a wealthy and
cruel uncle. To escape his unkind
treatment, she runs away from his
house and seeks refuge Dust at mid.
night in the bungalow of young ar.
list. That night murder is committed
which involves the artist who cannot
establish an alibi for fear of com.
promising the young girl; however she
rushes to the rescue in a courtroom
scene and saves the situation for all
concerned.
By far the best work In the cast
is done by Antonio Moreno as the
young artist. He makes a resolute
and convincing figure in his efforts
to save the young girl from scandal.
Peggy Hyland as the orphan girl,
looks charming, as usual. The small
but extremely effective person of Bob.
bic Connolly, aged six, who, as the
man of the family, tries his best to
protect his sister against the dangers
that beset her path, lends a refresh.
