He escapes, hov.;ever, and flies across the Atlantic in time to intercept the marriage of his S\\'eetheart to his brother. Emil ] anuings has proved again that ' art need not be beautiful. And he has shown also that realism, stark and po,verful, is his forte on the screen, realism with a grim, human quality that burns into the mind. This time it is "The Street of Sin," more than a worthy successor to his first American · production, "The Way of All Flesh," which created a place for the tragic screen drama in a land given over to happy endings. Replete with heart shock, fine irony and pathos, this Paramount picture will follow Lon Chaney's "Laugh, Clown, Laugh," at McVicker's theater starting Monday, ~fay 14. Jannings sta lks through the rabble of the London slums Jike a conqueror in cordurov. The streets of Limehouse obey the threat of his fists and women love him despite his brutality. It i:; es entially a story of regeneration, but wrought .differently than ever before on the screen. His reformation. brought about h~· Fay v\ ray, who plays a Salvation Army lass, is vivid because it is truthful.
