Pauline Frederick's Interpretation OF
the mercurial "Zaza" in the photoplay
which the Famous Players Company
has made OF the Belasco drama. to pc
seen today and tomorrow at the Lead
er, Is a bit broader than that given
on the stage by Mrs. Leslie Carter,
and In its bToadness has an element
that the stage production did not pro-
vide. Miss Frederick gives a spirit
OF youth to the part which relieves
some of the tense moments without in
tho least detracting from their ORA
matte value.
Henry Arthur Jones drama, The
Masqueraders," adapted to photoplay
proportions, will be seen wednesday
and Thursday with Hazel Dawn in the
role of the young girl who marries a
nobleman while a bar maid and Is then
