The Shadow of the Eagle

Long and rambling but still fun serial with an athletic performance form John Wayne and a troupe circus performers.

The 1st of 3 serials John Wayne did for the small Mascot Pictures company in his young years before he started establishing himself. I guess the most positive thing one can say about these is that John Wayne got practice being in main guy in these production preparing him for his later years. Because the quality of these serials are very mediocre and one-dimensional and filled with forced confusion with each episode ending with a cliffhanger. Did have some cool circus characters and happenings.
