"SEE AMERICA THIRST,"
HILARIOUS SATIRE ON GANG
LIFE COMING
The first satirical revelation of
the great American liquor traffic
and gangster methods soines to
the screen at the Dream Theatre
In ‘‘See America Thirst.”
As a feature length comedy.
"See America Thirst" lays claim
to being one of the most unique
pictures ever brought to the
screen in that it presents gang
ter life in a hilarious veiir. Harry
Langdon and Slim Summerville
were selected for the comedy
team with Resale Love portraying
the character of a cabaret singer,
and sweetheart of a gang leadev. j
The casting department of Uni- ,
versal ran a cloise race with the
police rogue’s gallery in rounding
up gangster "types” for the pic-1
ture. Extras, whose ugly faces I
are their fortune, figuratively
speaking, were in constant de- j
tnand for "killer” roles. The stn-i
dlo took on the appearance of i
America's wildest gangster rend- j
evous with Its scores of tougn
characters, machine guns and
trucks ip evidence during the ten
weeks of “See America Thirst’
production.
In "See America Thirst." Harry j
and Slim are mistaken for two*
gunmen hired bya gang of liquor j
