i" : J A\ J September 11, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 29 Stage and Screen News and Reviews VILLAGE THEATRE The greatest pantomimic opportuni- ties of her career are said to be offered Colleen Moore by her latest screen vehicle, "Ella Cinders," a John Mec- Cormick picturization of the news- paper comic strip, which will be pre- sented at the Village theatre next Monday and Tuesday under First Na- tional auspices . Humor is promised as one of the most pervading ingredients of the new production, with the thrill of novelty as added measure, for "Ella Cinders" is a chronicle of a country girl's efforts to get a foothold in the movies, and the play is said to teem with so-called off- stage glimpses of studio life. Surrounding Miss Moore is a cast headed by Lloyd Hughes, who has often been seen as her leading man. "Excess Baggage," a two reel Edu- cational comedy and Pathe News will also be shown. Norman Kerry has a colorful uni- formed role in "The Love Thief" which will play at the Village theater on Wednesday. Greta Nissen, popular Norwegian actress, plays opposite. The cast includes Marc MacDermott, Oscar Bergi, Carrie Daumery, Augustino Borgato, Nigel Barrie, Charles Puffy, Alphonse Martell and Clarence Thomp- son. \ The latest Our Gang comedy "In Deep" and Pathe Review will be includ- ed in the program. Romantic castles in Europe; devi- ous intrigues in a European court; the romance of royal loves and barter- ing for kingdoms; these all come to life in the filmization of George Barr McCutcheon's famous novel, "Bev- erly of Graustark," presented by Cos- mopolitan as Marion Davies' latest starring vehicle, and playing at the Village theater Thursday, Friday and Saturday, September 16, 17 and 18. Miss Davies plays a dual role, one of the most difficult ever attempted, for as the heroine, she is required to mas- querade as a crown prince and be the central figure in the coronation to save a throne. She played the role with hair cut short like a man's and so thoroughly duplicated male mannerisms that the illusion is positively uncanny. The latest two reel Our Gang come- dy and Pathe News will be shown. NORSHORE THEATRE In "Fine Manners," Gloria Swan- son's latest production for Paramount, which comes to the Norshore, Sunday, the star is supported by the world's tiniest actors. This is no reflection on the size of Eugene O'Brien, her lead- ing man, or Walter Goss, one of the junior stars, who plays her brother. Both are proud of their six feet. The miniature entertainers are a circus of trained fleas which Miss Swanson and O'Brien attend in the course of the storv, by James A. Creel- man and Frank Vreeland. As the flea circus posters have it: "IInbelievable ? See and be convinced!" Douglas MacLean in "Hold That Lion" is now playing, and" it is an- nounced that there will be stage spe- cialties also and that prices are re- duced. THE HOYBURN A land rush with 12,000 men, women and children participating, is one of the big scenes of "Wild West," fea- turing Jack Mulhall and Helen Fer- guson, now on the screen at the Hoy- burn theater. With Monday's change of bill the showing will be "The Waltz Dream," a Viennese feature produced by a foreign cast starring Xenia Desni. Percy Marmont in Sinclair Lewis' story of "Mantrap" will come to the screen Thursday. Clara Row and Ern- est Torrence are also members of the cast. THE NEW EVANSTON Ken Maynard in "Senior Daredevil," the first of his series of super-west- erns, is on the screen now at the New Evanston theater. Dangerous stunts feature the tRriller--stunts which have made him famous in circus and thea- ter. The first showing of a Rudolph Valentino film since the late star's death, will be on the screen starting Monday when "The Son of the Sheik" comes to the screen. Vilma Banky, Agnes Ayres, Montague Love, George Fawcett and others appear in the cast.
