WINNETKA TALK August 25, 1928 North Shore Theater News (Continued from page 23) TO SHOW "SUNRISE" Great Picture Is Booked for Granada Starting Saturday; Janet Gaynor and George O'Brien Are the Stars The Granada theater will show the vitaphone picture "Sunrise," beginning this Saturday, August 25, for one week. Some of the ablest critics in America have declared this to be the greatest picture ever made. It has been fascinatingly synchronized with the movietone, though there is no talking save a blur of voices in a street scene. It is all very gripping and very beautiful. "Sunrise" has not the intense ap- peal of either "Seventh Heaven" or "Street Angel," but as pictures go, it is almost perfect. The story, by Her- bert Suderman, suggests to you Drei- ser"s "American Tragedy," though characters and outcome are vastly different. The leading roles are played by Ja- net Gaynor and George O'Brien. Those who saw Miss Gaynor in "Street An- gel" and "Seventh Heaven" will not be disappointed in this. George O'Bri- en could scarcely have been better. Charles Kaley and his orchestra will be at the Granada this week in a new stage production called "The Jazz Kid- dies Revue." Merriell Abbot's Juvenile Stars, said to be the greatest collec- tion of stage children in America, will be on hand to assist Mr. Kaley in making things merry at the Granada. Chinese Flappers Will Entertain at Norshore Chinatown will be moved to Chica- go's north side next week when Fran- kie Masters, popular young singing director, and his Jazz Collegians will perform in a new stage show called "Frisco's Chinatown at Midnight" at the Norshore theater. News from the big movie house on Howard street is that there will be Chinese dancers and Chinese singers--and Chinese flap- pers too. And that isn't all. D. W. Griffith's most recent success, "Drums of Love," is the screen attrac- tion beginning this Sunday. The pic- ture has been acclaimed one of the best and has been called "a piece of superior workmanship, unerring in its artistic detail." The sets, scenery, and photography are splendid, and the pic- ture is _romantically costumed. The outstanding figure of the production is Lionel Barrymore. As Duke Cathos de Alyia he gives a great characteri- zation. Mary Philbin is lovely as Emanuella. Lon Alvarado is also in the cast. SPANISH REVUE RETURNS "A Night in Spain," popular revue of the New York Winter Garden, which ran for nineteen weeks at the Four Cohans theater last season, will be brought back to Chicago by the Messrs. Shubert for a brief run be- ginning September 2. It is their plan to put the show into the Majestic when they take charge on that date. The same cast that was here last sea- son, including Phil Baker, Ted Hea- ley, and Miss Aileen Stanley, will re- turn for the short run next month.

LLOYD HOLLISTER INC. 1232-36 Central Avenue Wilmette Greenleaf 4300 Sheldrake 5687 "Roadhouse," With Lionel Barrymore, at Teatro Monday Fred Thomson, motion picture actor and clergyman, will be at the Teatro del Lago this Saturday in "Kit Car- son." The picture is an authentic ac- count of the famous scout's romantic life. The play was filmed in Arizona and has much to do with the Navajo Indians. "The Wright Idea," a fast and hi- larous Johnny Hines comedy, is booked for the Teatro this Sunday, August 26. This time Johnny is an in- ventor named Mr. Wright. The film is a lively number that includes every- thing from insanity to bootlegging. It develops on both land and water, and numbers among those interested, such a variegated assortment of humans as is rarely assembled in one film. Mr. Hines is at his best in this new film, and Louise Lorraine is pretty and charming as the girl. Barrymore in "Roadhouse" Lionel Barrymore in "Roadhouse" will be at the Teatro next Monday and Tuesday, August 27 and 28. In this picture Barrymore is ideally cast as the American business man and father who is overwhelmed by disgrace through his own minor indiscretion and his son's folly. The son's search for excitement takes him {rom his home and his childhood sweetheart, Mary, to a roadhouse on the outskirts of the city, where disastrous compli- cations develop. Maria Alba, the lead- ing lady in the picture, is a flaming beauty and a born actress. She was acclaimed by popular vote the most beautiful girl in Spain. Behe Daniels' admirers will feel that she has made the most spectacularly thrilling picture of her career when they see "Hot News" at the Teatro del Lago next Wednesday. The story deals with the exploits of a newsreel camera girl (Miss Daniels) who steps into her father's business at a crucial moment and saves him from ruin by "scooping" the other newsreel services at every turn. Neil Hamilton plays opposite her. The climax of the pic- ture is one that is warranted to give the most blase moviegoer a thrill. Air- planes and government coast guard cutters are employed to make this an unusually spectacular finish. Barthelmess in Duel Role The whims of fate, as exemplified in the roulette wheel, provide the theme of "The Wheel of Chance," which comes to the Teatro del Lago Thurs- day and Friday. The effect of circum- stances and environment upon the twin brothers, separated in childhood by relentless fate, was the idea behind the original story, "Roulete," by Fan- nie Hurst. Tt is followed faithfully in the picture version, which brings Rich- ard Barthelmess to the screen at his best, in a powerful, dramatic vehicle with suspense and "punch" through- out. Barthelmess plays the dual role. portraying both twins. It is one of the big pictures of the year. Rex Bell Acts in Cowboy Picture at Pearl Today Rex Bell in "The Cowboy Kid" is today's offering at the Pearl theater in Highland Park.
