The producers of this motion picture have cast aside the plot conventions of the average film and blazed a completely new trail in a motion picture fraught with significant truth, truth which is more abecdbing than any boy- meets-girl romance could possibly be. PIETY VERSUS BRAWN IN "FULL CONFESSION”— The titanic struggle of piety against brawn, between a two-fisted simple-minded brute and a deter mined, strong-willed priest, provides high-pitched drama in “Full Confes sion.” Victor McLaglen, Sally Eilers, -Joseph Calleia and Barry Fitzger ald play the leading roles. The powerful story chronicles the efforts of Calleia, as a kindly priest, to persuade McLaglen, a paroled convict, to ton fess the murder of a watchman, in order to save an innocent man from the chair. But the slow-witted ruffian, Who knows the priest cannot expose him be cause of the seal of the confession al', refuses. How Calleia eventually succeeds in his mission by arousing the inherent decency in the man brings the film’s soul-stirring climay. “Ride Him Cowboy”, latest thrill er in the John Wayne Western series, will roar into the Joy Theatre Tuesday.
