Gun Running
Thriller

On the screen at Loew's Colum-
bia Theater this week you may
see Victor MacLaglen as swash-
buckling gun runner. He supplies
the arms and the incentives, too,
for revolutions.
TIL picture is called Laughing
at Life" and employs the largest
cast of reputable Hollywood actors
that ever frolicked on set. Some
of them have just bits.
Ford Beebe wrote the story and
he also directed it. Neither as
author or megaphone man Is he a
champion. He had so much to
tell that his story becomes in
volved and intricate, is hard to
follow. AS a director his tech
nioue is nervous and jerky and
so the feature is only moderately
interesting and occasionally ex-
citing.
MacLaglen as happy-go-lucky
adventurer hops from country to
country always just step ahead
of the constabulary. He deserts
his family and loses all trace OF
his son. Eventually he lands in
one of those mythical South
American countries to bootleg
rifles and stir up trouble. Just
as war is ready to pop who
should turn up but his son (Regis
Toomey). Father and son man
age to escape before the final
fadeout.
The romance angle is sadly
neglected although Conchita Mon
tenegro shakes a shoulder and
Ruth Hall appears briefly as dec
orative appeal. In the cast are
William (Stage) Boyd, j. Farrell
Macdonald, Noah Beery, Tully
Marshall, Lois Wilson, Henry B.
Walthal, Quinn Williams, Henry
Armetta, Edmund Breese, frankie
Darro, Pat OMalley and Dewey
Robinson.
On the supplementary program
is the Paramount News reel, q
short Harry Langdon comedy and
James Fitzpatrick travelogue
on the South Seas country.
