"FLESH" QUEEN'S THEATRE.
Wallace Beery, famous featured player of record breaking films, gives another of his flawless per Ronations in "Flesh" which is now showing at the Queen's Theatre.
Beery who portrays a wrestler and out for world honours, looks acts the part to something almost approaching perfection. The story is the usual one, wound round the gold digger who deserts the sinking ship for a better prize.
Karen Morley is excellent in the part of "Laura," while Ricardo Cortez is charming as "Nicky" her new lover.
