Officer O'Brien (1930)
If William Boyd wants to get a speed ticket fixed he's a cinch after this glorification of the American cop. Although you might hesitate to believe that a lieutenant would go single-handed to arrest the most notorious gangster in town, you'll still find this entertaining and exciting. Ernest Torrence turns in a grand performance as the jail-bird father of the young policeman. A mildly pleasant evening.
