aS PE / THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1927 - PAGE THREE X Screen News and Reviews by "Old Bill" At the Regent A REALLY GOOD RACING DRAMA Manager Osier; of the Regent, has been fortunate in securing this pie- ture, "In Old Kentucky" which will remain here until Wednesday night. The picturization loses nothing by being modernized; in fact, been considerably improved, and is far more interesting as a modern drama than iy was in its old stage form, The war scenes, though brief, are well done, anl the classic horserace is a tremendously thrilling piece of work, The caste is particularly well chosen, especially the coloured members. Carolynne Snowden, and Stepin Fetchit, whose perfect com- edy draws roars of laughter from the audience. \ James Murray, who plays the part of "Major" Brierly, only son of a proud Kentucky family, is al- most a newcomer to the screen, but is already making a name for him- self, He has two distinct charac- ters to enact in "Old Kentucky'. At the heginming he is a lovable laughing boy looking down the road to a future which was to be all sun- shine and happiness. Then comes the war, ,"Major" is one of the first to join,,,.he comes back a changed man, a drunkard and a gambler, On his return home every- thing is different for him, and in DH spite of the entreaties of his moth- | er he leaves home, bad to worse for the Brierly fam- ily, until one day Mr. Brierly dis- covers. one of his racehorses amongst some of the horses which had been returned from the battle- fields of France. He huys the horse, and prepares it for the great Derby race, ' At the very last moment it looks a8 though Queen Bess would not he able to enter the race, and great is the delight of the family when they see her taking her place amongst the starters. Then commences the most excit- ing part of a really good picture .and,,,,we would strongly ad- vise yon to go and see the finish.

As the unctuous "Deacon" who is always ready to test the '"'faith" of others in their card-playing abilities, he actually seems to live the character. Under this veneer, there is the real man, a man of strong sympathies, who seems to go about, obtaining money from those who do not know how to use it, and passing it on to those whe will do good with it. As to his methods. ..well... perhaps the methods of Robin Hood were not strictly legal. ..methols 'must be changed to suit the times. There is a very dainty love story running through the play, with lit- tle June Marlow as the heroine, and Ralph Graves as the stalwart hero whose main object in life\is to ob- tain 'the sum of $200.00 to furnish a home for himself and Phyllis. At last he gets the chance by substituting for an absent prize- fighter. He is offered that sum if he will last ten rounds, and he does 80. However, when he goes to claim the money, the promoters refuse... and then the real excitement. he- gins, There are several very un- expected developments, which keep {one wondering what is going to happen next. Everybody loves tho Deacon... except those whom he has relieved of ill-gotten riches. ... even the sheriff has a very soft spot in his heart for the 'Deacon'. The prize fight is very well stayg- ed, and how the hero manazes to stand up under the shower of blows is more than we are able to under- |8tand. However, at the end when | his opponent asks him in a surpris- ed tome, "Say, hoy, whatever held you up?" he manages to gasp, "Four rooms of furniture!"

The Rogers' horses won, and Miss Gordon rode into the limelight in the lady's hunter class. This event brought 'out thirty-four equines, all handled by young ladies. The jumping was of an outstanding character, for twenty hunters sailed across the fences without registering a major kick, Miss Gordon rode the four Rogers' entries, Fetchem, Red Star, Matchem and Mischief, and under her guidarnce three of them ended up in the ribbon class.
