GOLD"
LOADED WITH
MELODRAMA
John BOIes and Claire
TreUOr Star in Another
Story of the Great Vest.

There are times when a lot of
melodramatics and hooey can be COM
bined TO make a fairly presented bic
picture. wild Gold" now showing
at the Columbia, is one of these,
loaded to the breaking point with the
melodramatic events that made peo-
pie cling to their seats in the days
Of the nickelodeon.
John Boles, singer, and one who
really does have an excellent voice,
has turned actor. and Claire Trevor,
blond actress, who knows a lot about
acting, has turned singer in this
filming of a modern gold rush. Mr..
Boles' ability as an actor was slightly
overrated here. but, nevertheless, he
does fairly we'll as a playboy engineer
with a penchant for the jug Many.
however. will be inclined to think
that Mr. Boles should continue sing
ing. Whereas, Miss Trevor. not only
carries the brunt of the film on her
shoulders capably as an actress, but
surprises with singing twice some sort
of song entitled, I've Got You at the
Top of My List" in a manner very
aLLTdCIlNe.
Mr.. Boles does not sing, except one
or two lines of the song which he
more or less growls while chasing
Miss Trevor around a table
The film actually begins as II it
had something behind its picturiza-
ton, but after one-third has passed,
melodramatics are introduced Miss
Trevor, night club singer, happens
to have husband who has habits of
blackmail and everything else despi-
cable. On his last offense she packs
up, takes the car and offs to the West,
where the car breaks down just out
side Red Gulch, or some place like
that. She is befriended by Pop Ben
son. aged miner, who also is a friend
of Mr.. Boles. But, it seems, Mr. Boles
is great annoyance to Miss Trevor.
AS usual all is Strengthened out in the
end and Mr.. Boles and Miss Trevor
are seen disappearing down the road
after a big dam has burst
On the supplementary bill there is
comedy featuring Ernest Truck, who
is really good comedian; a musical
short with songs from the opera
