Trick Devices
For the production, in which
weird light and south effects play
a prominent part, special "thunder
and lightening' devices were rigged
up, ready to send forth vivid I
flashes of light and claps of thun-|
der at a button signal from the
director. Many novel pieces of
camera equipment had to be made
for the unusual angles and a great
moving crane, allowing the camera
unlimited lateral and perpendicular
movement, was employed for some
of the striking shots.
The plot of "Guilty Hands." which
will open Sunday midnight at
Bailey, Eighty-One Theatre, re
volves about a criminal lawyer

daughter’s prospective husband in
order to save her from certain un
happiness. When a spectacular clue’
is discovered, he uses his wits to
save himself from the gallows. The
climax comes as a total surprise to
film audiences.
