"At Ellis Island" Gertrude Wolf
does a splendid bit of "color work" as the
immigrant wife. The picture is startlingly
true to type, and she plays the part
with a touch of grimy realism, immensely
effective.
The erstwhile
Hebrew comedian has not entirely
freed himself from all the earmarks of his
old specialty, but he puts a vast amount
of feeling and sincerity into the Italian
characterization, and realizes the conviction
many of his admirers have had that
he is a character actor of ability.
