Cast as the semi- | demented knife-thrower in a circus who is apparently without arms, the "eighth wonder" uses his feet for both hands and transportation facilities. It is uncanny to see him use them. "Will you have a drink?" remarks Alonzo to himself, "or a cigaret?" and forthwith his toes produce the desired result as easily as you or I could do it with our fingers. And when it comes to knife throwing--it'll be "step aside Mister lest ye find interference in yer ribs." The story is just as weird. Alonzo covets the fair daughter of the circus owner--who being Joan Crawford, is far from hard to gaze upon. The Estrellita (Joan), however, has a hid- den love for Malabar, the strong man, and the only reason that she doesn't play Juliet for her Romeo is because she has a queer fear of all men's arms. Alonzo feeds this mental quirk by auto-suggestion and thus uses it to further his own interests. But Estrellita's papa doesn't like Alonzo and makes matters difficult. Alonzo choses a dark night and Estrel- lita becomes an orphan. But Alonzo fears that when the lady finds that he is equipped with arms that his chances will do a marathon elsewhere, so he promotes an operation in order to loose them. In the meantime, how- ever, Malabar is doing some promotion in his own interest and when Alonzo returns from the hospital it is to find that he will have to remain a bachelor. He organizes another annihilation act and--then comes the climax. "The Poor Nut" First National production; Richard Wal- lace, director; Oriental presentation.
