Gypo Nolan in "The h. former" There are pathos, savage aggressiveness, reckless heroism and passages of rich humor as the brawny Victor fights, loves and loses and sweep on to his dramatic fate in climax scene of tremendous power.
 Though McLaglen's portrait of Marty is the highlight of the film it is not just a solo triumph. The leading feminine part in the picture is played by Beatrice Rob- erts, a beautiful newcomer to films. AS the girl McLaglen loves and loses, she is splendid. Paul Kelly is sincere as the priest. William Gar gan and John Gallaudet portray the two policemen in the old gang with an appealing directness. Frank Jenks, one of or favorite comics. is very funny and so is the moon faced Dave Oliver. Tn fact the whole sup- porting cast. including several child players carry their roles expertly. The other hit of the program is "Sinners in Paradise" a stirring tale of nine desert island castaways.
