--- September 17, 1927 WINNETKA TALK Shore Theaters News 20 mn 0 "Beau Geste" Next Week's Offering at Norshore Theater Starting next Sunday the Norshore theater offers "Beau Geste" and Al Kvale and his Jazz Collegians in a new stage offering "Al's Harum Scarum Revue." Al's revue promises to be even hot- ter than any of his previous offerings. A huge cast of prominent artists have been engaged to assist in the presenta- tion and with the Jazz Collegians, are all set for a harum scarum time with plenty of harum scarum syncopated tunes and a world of chatter and new steps. (Anyone ever see Al when he wasn't chattering?) "Beau Geste"! A masterful tragedy drama beautifully filmed, splendidly directed and superbly cast. There, I've used all the adjectives I can think of and haven't said all I want to. Ronald Coleman has been featured in some very brilliant pictures but with the exception of the "Big Parade" never has he presented anvthing that can compare with "Beau Geste." and that too is saying a plenty. "Dark Hour," "The Winning of Barbara Worth," "A Night of Love"--all were fine productions but still incomparable with "Beau Geste." The picture opens with the arrival of a relief troop of the French For- eign Legion at a fort in the Sahara desert. Here the commandant of the troop finds that the battlements are all manned--by dead men. A bugler volunteers to scale the wall and open the gates. He does not re- turn. The commandant going in search of him also scales the walls. He finds no trace of the bugler but investigation discloses that the commanding officer of the fort was killed by a French bayonet and that the body of the man who apparently murdered him lies close by. The commandant goes to summon his troops and to open the gates. In his absence the two bodies disappear and shortly afterward the fort bursts into flames and burns to the ground. These occurrences form the basis for the unfolding of a mystery that as far as the French government is con- cerned, remains unsolved. But while the mystery forms the basis for the plot, the story really deals with the affairs of Beau Geste, his two brothers and their aunt, who has raised them. To tell you any more of the story "Not for Publication" | Heads Teatro Program The four pictures scheduled for next | week at Teatro del Lago are "Not for Publication," "The Poor Nut," "The | Satin Woman," and "Back to God's Country." Ralph Ince is starred in "Not for Publication," which is to be shown Ince is supported by a comer of the The story cen- next Sunday. comparatively new screen, Jola Mendez. ters about the building of a big dam in | The appealing love theme action revolves em- phaszes the devotion of the star to his orphaned sister. Political intrigue and the driving action of a militant newspaper toward clearing up the situation, form the background for the picture. "The Poor Nut," with Jack Mulhall, will be shown on Monday and Tues- day. It is a splendid little farce- comedy on college life and deals with a young man who "maintains" an in- feriority complex and later becomes the school track star and wins the girl he wants. Wednesday's presentation, "T h e Satin Woman," is a Mrs. Wallace Reid-Gotham production, presenting Mrs. Reid in the title role. She plays the character of a "butterfly of fashion," who suddenly realizes the folly of her ways and reforms. Then comes a still more remarkable transi- tion when, to save her daughter from the west. about which the wrecking her life, the mother once more becomes the alluring "Satin Woman." Renee Adoree is a French-Canadian lass in "Back to God's Country," which is the bill for Thursday and Friday and was written by James Oliver Cur- wood. Robert Frazer, Michael Lewis and Walter Long also are cast in the picture. "Back to God's Country" is a nicely photographed film of the far north. THE VARSITY Syd Chaplin in "The Missing Link" is now playing at the Varsity theater. Monday's change of bill will bring Ben Lyon and Charlie Murray in "For the Love of Mike." The Vitaphone pres- entations include Roger Wolf Kahn and his society orchestra, the Kouns sisters and Buddy Doyle. would be to ruin it for you but I can assure you that you will want to see "Beau Geste." rinz CHATEAU taeatre BROADWAY AT GRACE STREET All this Week THE MINTURN with HARRY MINTURN in "THE GORILLA" NEXT WEEK--"LAFF THAT OFF" PLAYERS Cast Includes HENRIETTA TEDRO--JUNE KERWIN--WILLIS HALL EARL JAMISON--JANET REGAL Every Evening at 8:15--Mats.
