“Obey The Law”
On Sunday Night
The story of an easy mark who
became a human firebrand, just such
a screen drama is the Columbia pic
ture, “Obey The Law,” which opens
Sunday at the Dream Theatre. Leo
Carrillo, Dickie Moore and Lois
Wilson are featured in the princijj
al roles of the production, written
for the screen by Arthur Caeser
from the story by Harry Sauber.
In “Obey the Law,” Carrillo por
trays the role of an Italian immig
rant who is so fired wiht loyalty for
the United States after he becomes
a citizen that he cannot rest com
fortably when he meets the vicious
ness of politcal terrorism.
He is so enthusiastic for every
thing American that he almost be
comes an easy mark for the vice
ring of big city politics, until he
discovers the deceitfulness of “Big
Joe” Rierdon, played by Henry
Clive, boss of the 8th Assembly dis
trict, who controls the gang Carrillo
then begins to buck.
“Obey the Law,” is fully as pow
erful a story as “Washington Merry
Go-Round.” Instead of venturing its
attention on the broad field of na
tional politics, “Obey the Law” digs
intimately into the political nest of
crookedness and theivery of the lo
cal scene in a big metropolitan cen
ter.
The screen play by Arthur Cae
ser catches the warm childlike con
fidence with which intmigrants look
forward to becoming citizens of this
great country, and the subsequent
disappointment that often awaits
them when the political machine be
gins to “use” them.
