Summary
The romantic adventures of Johnnie Walker in 'Captain Fly-by-Night' continue to attract big assemblies to the Coronet. Miss Shannon Day is as pretty and accomplished a film actress as has been seen here. The story is a spirited narration of events in Spanish California of one hundred years ago, written by the author of 'The Mark of Zorro.' 'Captain Fly-by-Night' furnishes a genuine evening's entertainment. Buster Keaton in the 'Paleface' provides something new in the way of comedies.
