It's a fairly sting story, rather cleverly ded and screened. It also gives unity to Miss Pauline Frederick Conrad Nagel for some rather r work. Miss Frederick is pera little too plain in the first but she makes up for it in portrayal of Mrs. Paramor. Mr. ~agel is quite competent and then there are Huntley Gordon and Mae Bush to lend a helping hand throughthe picture. The latter is especially good.

"MARRIED FURTS" CllieofiD T"-'"" "Forbidden Paradise" is saie1 to be one of the most colorful and dramatic films which that famous pair have yet produced. Adeline to their experience and their mastery of .technique during the two years which have elapsed since they separated in Europe, both Pola and Lubitsch broucht to the filming of "Forbidden Paradise" a strength· and deftness unknown in their European days. In the ltory Pola is the queen of a smaU BaDcan principality, a masterful and efticient sovereign who meets the intripes and deceits of court life with ·a n iron hand. . She is a creature of extraordinary beauty and magnetism and possessing a decided penchant for handsome young men. Rod La Rocque is a soldier in the army at the front. Menjou is the queen's chancellor, her faithful servant and a diplomat of the highest order. Miss Starke is first lady-in-waiting to th.e C~arina. A revolution is on foot and La Rocque, as Alexei, warns the queen, but the chancellor attempts · to discredit him The Caariana falls in love with Alexei. Anna (Miss Starke) is heartbroken. Alexei learns from his fellow officers that with the queen he is more or less of a plaything. He is filled with a loathing for the Czarina and joins forces with the revolutionists. The uprising is quelled and Alexei is imprisoned. How he is eventually freed and finds happiness with Anna should constitute one of the most interesting productions shown in Evanston in many a long day. Fred Malatesta, Nick De Ruiz and Mme. D' Aumery are ilrnong the more prominent members of ·a fine supporting cast. Lubitsch was loaned to Paramount by Warner Brothers to make "Forbidden Paradise." ble fine $ 17.00 375.00 375.00 65.00 45.00 62.50 75.00 1,265.00 158.00 875.00 375.00 200.00 245.00 5Z.OO 120.00 121·· 751.00 1,751.80 325.80 G.M 1Z8.18 7.58 %37·· lZS.IO 251.00 " TONGUES OF FLAME" M cVickers Theatre Th e story for "Tongues of Flame" s taken from the novel by Peter rk MacFarlane. It deals with one who is looked · up to and by the Siwash Indians who Shell Point. A prominent business man wants to buy the land but ha s little success till he employs Harrington to get the signatures of the Indians. ] ust as the papers are about to he registered Harrington .~ that the great anxiety on the lltt..Jifilli"'t'fl of said hQsiness man to buy the was due to the fact that there oil beneath the surface. Oh es of Tea-Pot Dome I Immediately Harrington puts a monkey wr ench in the machinery and the sale is off. But the business man is not through and the troubles he causes Harrington is quite sufficient. It ends all ri ght, however. Thomas Meighan, one of the real actors on the screen, is playing Harrington, .afid whether he be behind pri~nn bars or in the midst of mobs and fires he is still the actor and a fine one. And then he does some kind of work that makes a big hit with the ladies including a switch in his affections from the rich young lady to the one who is poor but has an hone 1 heart. Burton Churchill is Boland, the hnsiness man, and is entirely capable. The same in the main, is true of Bc ,sil Lo~e and Eileen Percy. Cyril Ring handles a small part well. Altogether, there isn 't much the matter with cast, direction or the picture in general and there are enough changes of scenes and ideas to keep interest well keyed up to the end. HOYBURN Adolphe Menjou is looking for a new word! The English language, rich as it is, doesn't seem to have a term which. describes the roles played by the noted Parambunt actor. "Villain ?" he asks. "I don't play villains!" The dictionary gives many defini·ions but none seems to fit Menjou's interpretations. In the beginning the word "villain" meant serf. "An ignoble or baseborn person generally a boor, peasant or clown." Then it gradually came to mean a vile perso11, a law breaker. "l do not violate the law in a picture like 'The Fast Set,' for instance," I obey the law but I am the arbiter of fashion and etiquette." In "The Fast Set," William de Mille's production, based on Clara Be~anger's screen play of Frederick Lonsdale s stage success, "Spring Cleaning," Menjou appears as a polished gentleman, who delights in sending a flutter through the hearts of women by sheer charm and personal magnetism. He appeals to their vanity. His gracious manners and ready wit make him the leader of the "fast set" a character as far removed from th~ accepted "viiJain" as are the poles. "The parts I have been most succe_ ssful in have been of men of educatiOn and wealth. You may call them philanderers, if you like. It is this k!nd of _ a part I play in 'The Fast Set., . ObV!ously, the so-called 'great-lover . m th1s picture, has had a college educatton and mingled with the best people. He wears fine clothing, carries a cane and · s~okes the best brand of cigarettes.

' "Yet, because the publie catalotllk'S tts stage screen characters, I am thrown into the heap marked 'heavy' meaning the stereotyped villian. I loathe the word, 'villain.' I find myself pictured in the public mind as a bearded, sweaty and bare-throated victim of emotion, the kind of character which leers at women and frightens the frail, youna things. "We must find a new term for this type of society figure. 'Villain' doesn't describe it." "The Fast Set," which is said to be one of ·the outstanding comedies of the season, features Betty Compsoo, Elliott Dexter, ZaSu Pitts and Menjou, opens next Monday at the Hoybum theatre for a 3 days' run.
