Burt Lan Tisler a government oper Ator trucks him Down through an encounter with a Young United nations interpreter Dorothy the whole tale has a believable air. The Romance which blossoms Between or.

Lancas Ter usually a morose gangster in films Here shows that when he is called upon to play a Normal Young Man that he can Dot it successfully. Miss Mcguire s Breezy personality is a great help. Mister so is a picture however which depends solely on its Blithe recital of a Story that is almost too incredible to be True.

The dialogue is Well written but there is too much of it and it tends to become glib it times. More notion and less talk have done wonders for a film which is but which never quite teaches a Peak.
