Si ----A--de----rrr May 5, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 47 Shore Theaters 5305.0 am 0 -am-0au-0an%* Dolores Costello Comes to Granada in "Tenderloin" The exceedingly popular Dolores Costello comes to the screen of the Granada and Marbro theaters, start- ing Saturday, May 5, when Marks Bros., will present her in the picture, "Tenderloin." "Tenderloin" is a melodramatic crook 'drama affording Dolores one of the best emotional roles she has ever had. Further than this, it is known that Miss Costello had much to do in selecting the story of the picture, which was written by Melville Cros- man. The screen adaptation was made by E. T. Lowe, Jr., and as an indi- cation of what Warner Bros. thought of the work, they assigned the film- ing of it to Michael Curtis, recognized as one of the most artistic directors in the motion picture field. In this new deluxe offering Miss Costello has an acting role which en- ables her to play upon the sympathies of her audiences. An innocent girl in- veigled into a gang of master crooks through her infatuation for a seeming- ly honest youth, a member of the gang, she is dragged down and there is nothing to save her from utter de- gradation except that soundness of character that came to her at birth. It is a thrilling fight against what looks like fate, the odds all seemingly against her and hope as far removed as a miser's pity. Principal in the support of Miss Costello is the debonair Conrad Nagel, cast as the good-looking crook.
