(William Wellman, US 1933, 73 min.)

then at 8:30 p.m. TAXI!

(Roy Del Ruth, USA 1932, 69 min.)

Heroes for Sale, one of the most thrilling of pre-code melodramas, follows working-class hero Richard Barthelmess as he survives serious injury in WWI, overcomes a morphine addiction, and faces unemployment—then finds love (with Loretta Young), a steady job, and tries to stop a vicious striking mob—and that’s just in the first half! Then, Taxi! driver James Cagney rallies his fellow cabbies in a fight against the monolithic company that threatens to ruin their independent drive to make a living. Look for Cagney’s first on-screen dance number in a scene with Loretta Young and up-and-comer George Raft. Two films for one admission price.
