A Few Cents Will Bring Many Dollars. Put Your For Rent Ad Belffl
MOVIE SIDELIGHTS j
DITTMANN I
Half real and half legendary Is
ew* central character around which i
"The Bad Man," Porter Emerson
Browne’s play, was written.
Pancho Lopez, the whimsical, wit
ty, bandit philosopher of this story
is as much a legendary type in Mex
ico and California as Robin Hood
was in England.
Needless to say, there has never
been a bandit exactly like Panchc
Lopez, any more than there was a
robber born with the qualities and
character of Robin Hood.
Yet there is much of trufu in the
picture. The bandit chiefs of early
California, gay, carefree, ardent
lovers and ferocious killers, al had
this streak in them, and the same
is true of many outlaws In the
old days along the Mexican border,
and, to a certain extent, even more
recently in Mexico.
Pancho Lopez, played in this First
National Vitaphone production by
Walter Huston, is a bandit and a
killer, who takes what he wants
with a laugh, whether it be money
or cattle, or women. His philosophy
of life is to be happy while he
lives, and to satisfy every persona’
desire, and not to care when or
how- he dies. He Is the born leader,
stern with his owm men. loyal tr
his friends, hating injustt*e in
others, the bandit who robs the rich
and gives to the poor.
QUEEN
When Marjorie White, featured
in ‘ The New Movietone Follies of
1930,” now showing at the Queen
theater, scored a sensational hit in
her first picture. “Sunny Side Up,”
many were the skeptical critic* who
regarded her merely as a “flash in
the pan."
"She did it once, but can she do
it again?” was their attitude.
Fox Movietone executives, who
have Miss White under long-term
contract, thought »o. To convince
the critics they put her in the
hardest spot ever occupied by any
young actress. She was given the
leading feminine role *in ‘Happy
Days,” spectacular muaical produc
tion which presented virtually ev
ery star on the Fox lot. To survive
such competition was a severe test
But Marjori:. not only survived, but
outshone everyone else In the pic
ture for her individual excellence.
Next. Miss White was given the !
comedienne role in “The Golden
Calf.” and with El Brendel, again
proceeded to romp away with the
major honors.
Again teamed W’lth the famous
Swedish character comedian in this
year's “Movietone Follies” and In
a role made to order for her. sir
demonstrates beyond a doubt that
she is the greatest comedy discov- !
ery since the advent of audible !
pictures.
Others in the cast include Frank !
Richardson, Noel Francis. William
C> ier. Jr., Miriam Seesar, J. M
Kerrigan. Yola D'Avril, Huntly
Gordon. Paul Nicholson ~nd many
other well known players. In addi
tion there is a dancing chorus cf
300 beauties and a vocal chorus of
50 trained singers. Benjamin Stol- j
eff directed the production from
the story of William K. Wells.
ItlVOLI—SAN BENITO
With Sahara sands transmuted
to the crisp, tingling, finer and !
whiter stretches of the Arctic Circle I
there is something of the vivid love
power of "The Sheik'* * "The
Spoilers," rated by many the peer

offered Thursday and Friday at
the Rivoli theater. San Benito, for
this first time as a sound vnd all

Something of the epic dimension.*
of "Wings." too. there is in the new ,

about Nome: something of the rug

something of the fascination of !
"Beau Geste.”
Not that "The Spoilers'* in talk
