Racetrack To Be
Shown at Dream
“Sporting Blood” sensational dra
| ma of the turf, with one of the most
elaborate casts assembled in seasons
is the attraction which will be shown
Tuesday evening at the Dream
Theatre.
The picture is based on Frederick
Hazlitt Brennan’s Saturday Even
ing Post story, “Horseflesh." Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer produced it.
I Clark Gable, who recently scored
in “A Free Soul,” “The Secret Six”
and Laughing Sinners,” and Madge
j Evans, of “Son of India” fame, play
the central roles, as the blackjack
' dealer and the gambler’s sweetheart |
respectively, who in seeking to re- j
habilitate an abused racehorse find
rehabilitation for themselves. I
Much of the picture was filmed i
on Kentucky race horse breeding
farms, and shows the “inside” of the
methods of, the track. The Ken
| tucky Derby and other famous races
furnish added thrills to the vivid,
story of gambling and greed. Many
famous jockeys and race horses also
appear.
