The Faker (1929)





Director Phil Rosen should avoid all spiritualistic mediums (or is the plural media?) after this picture is released. Here you have the absolute low-down on the hocus-pocus boys. It is remarkably well done, too, and gives interest to an ordinary picture. Warner Oland is the fake medium, with Jacqueline Logan as his assistant. Of course, she gives it all up to lead a Clean Life.
