Oliver, however, has grown! up to be a scornful and unscrupu · lous young man about town, cynl- cal, brittle and unashamed: He manages to bring unhappiness to the people who have loved him most. When regeneration comes, It is almost too late.
Unforgettable acting is contri- buted by Miss Carroll as Livia Vay nol, Brian Aherne as William Es sex and Louis Hayward as Oliver Essex. Featured roles are handled extremely well by Henry Hull, Laraine Day, Josephine Hutchin son and Sophie Stewart.
