EXCITING PRISON PICTURE

ALSO POWERFUL DRAMA FOR OCTAGON The beautiful Continental actress, Elissa Landi, is seen in the splendid drama, * Sisters Under the Skin,’ which will commence a season at the Octagon on Friday. Miss Landi has been seen previously in ‘ The Warrior’s Husband,’ ‘ The Masquerader,’ and ‘By Candle Light.’ In her latest picture she is said to handle an exceedingly difficult role with a polish and finesse which stamps her as one of the foremost actresses on the screen. She is ably assisted by such talented players as Frank Morgan, who will bo remembered lor his outstanding performance as the Duke in ‘ The Affairs of Cellini,’ and Joseph Schildlcraut, seen in ‘ Viva Villa.’ In ‘ Shadows of Sing Sing, which will be the other picture, a typically American problem is presented by Bruce Cabot. As the son of a police officer he falls in love with sweet Mary Brian, the sister of the gangster. How the two eventually resolve their great difficulty occupies several reels of exciting screen story. Complication follows complication as the net of the law sweeps wider to catch the gangsters, and the determination of Mary becomes sterner. Eventually, of course, tbev find happiness. They are variously helped ami hindered by Bradley Page, Claire Du Brey, Grant Mitchell, Irving Bacon, and! Dewey Robinson. ■ns'’
