It unites Loretta Young and Franc-hot, popular young players. “The Goguarded HojJr” is the story of an attorney whose brilliance enables him to .send men to the gallows by nmmi stantial evidence alone. In his most sensational case, he finds his wile the witness whose testimony absolves Ihe defendant, after which he himself becomes involved in a crime, trussed in a skein of circumstantial evidence which he cannot break. It is a story which never lags, from the first scenes at a Mayfair party to the last in a tense court room. The story shifts between London and Biarritz. The supporting cast includes, such names as Lewis Stone, Roland Young, Jessie Ralph, Dudley Diggos, Henry Danioll, -Robert Grcig, E. E. Clive, Wallace Clark, John Buckler, and Aileen Pringle, a famed star of silent-film days. The remainder of
