Comment/Synopsis

A DA (Adolphe Menjou) decides that he needs a holiday so goes with his secretary (Ruthelma Stevens) to a small town , but when he gets there he gets involved in a murder in a circus visiting the town. The plot is not great with the murder happening three quarters of the way through the film. There are some high wire scenes and some curious freaks. Adolphe Menjou did much better work though Greta Nissen brings elegance to the film.
