Beggars of Life Totally Explained

Everything about Beggars Of Life totally explained

Beggars of Life (1928) is an early sound film with talking sequences starring Wallace Beery as a rail-riding hobo and Louise Brooks as a girl on the run. Based on a novel called "Beggars of Life" by Jim Tully, the film is often regarded as Brooks' best movie. This is Paramount's first feature with dialogue on the soundtrack and the first time Beery's distinctive voice was recorded for a film, although the talking is extremely limited, similar to Warner Bros.'s The Jazz Singer the previous year.
   Beery and Brooks had appeared together the previous year in Now We're in the Air, a lost film.
   A copy of Beggars of Life, blown up to 35mm from the only surviving 16mm print, was screened at the 12th annual San Francisco Silent Film Festival at the Castro Theatre in July 2007.
