Rescuers, yes, but exemplars of animal rights? Not exactly. Eighty-eight years ago, forty years before the dawn of the animal rights movement, a muscular quasi-vegan sailor and his lanky girlfriend rescued animals on the silver screen, soon joined by a sexy “flapper” who sang jazz and her aged but ever inventive grandfather.
