MOVING PICTURES,
Colonial.

|
Few photuplays of recent years
have offered such decided contrasts
as Eyes or No?" the latest of best
offering of photodrama distributed by
First National, in which Norma Tai
madge stars. Two sides of life are
shown in it, the story shift
ting from one to the other with
startling rapidity. In the home Of
Margaret Vane we see the social elite
frittering away their time while a
moment later, whisked by the magic
of the moving picture camera few
blocks east we encounter Minnie Ber-
~, laboring amid squalid poverty to
keep her home and babies in a manner
worthy of the love Of her devoted but
preoccupied husband.
OF course Miss Talmarge handles
both roles. And she does it with =
rare skill and charm. Both OF her
characterizations are excellent, her
beauty contributing much to the en-
ioyment of the picture. Even as
Minnie Berry in Bingham and with
hair bedraggled, this delightful little
actress is good to look upon, while IN
the gorgeous wardrobe she has equip
ped herself with for the part Of Mar
garet Vane her beauty IS irrisistable.
