JACKIE COOPER'S LATEST
‘ SOOKY ' AND ‘ BROKEN WING ' FOR OCTAGON ‘ Sooky,’ Paramount’s sequel to that very popular film ‘ Skippy,’ starts at the Octagon on Friday, together with ‘ Broken Wing,’ starring Lupe Velez. Jackie Cooper is a big star despite his youth. He is as much at home in emotional drama as he is in comedy. He is extremely popular since his great success in ‘ Skippy ’ and ‘ The Champ.’ ‘ Skippy ’ made another juvenile star in addition to Jackie Cooper—Jackie Coogan’s “kid” brother, Robert Coogan, who accomplishes an amazing piece of work as Sooky; Young Coogan is living up to a great name. ’He boars a strong resemblance to the Jackie Coogan of ‘The Kid.’ He has the same quality of pathos—the same well-developed sense of comedy—that made Jackie Coogan an international favourite. ‘ The Broken Wing’ provides romance, adventure, and comedy delightfully blended by the artistry of the players, Leo Carillo, Melvyn Douglas, George Barbicr, and Lupe Velez.
