EMPRESS THEATRE
“GUILTY AS CHARGED.” “Guilty as Charged,” Paramount’s murder farce starring Edmund Lowe and Victor McLaglen, is to be screened at the Empress Theatre tonight and Friday. At the opening of the picture the audience sees a murder committed. But Lowe, a police reporter, and McLaglen, a detective, arrive on the scene later, and it takes them plenty of time, during which they blunder through many amusing incidents, for them to find out what the audience already knows.
Meanwhile, they nearly send Richard Arlen, a friend of the woman who has been slain, to the gallows. Adrienne Ames has the leading feminine role in the production. She is cast as Arlen’s sister; it is her appeal to McLaglen and Lowe that keeps them working on the case.
