Special Music Score
For Big PhotOpIays
Future innovations

The time Is not far on when the
big photOplay producers will look
upon having a special music score
written for each big feature pic
ture. just as the producers OF legiti-
mate attractions depends on music
for their productions" says Wasili
Leps. who has written an original
music score for The Woman Cn-
tanned" which is now being shown
at Moore's Garden Theater.
In doing so, Leps has convinced
all that what he says about music
scores written to harmonic with
the picture is a big step forward
in the art of motion-p!cture pres
entation. In. writing the music
score for The Woman Cntamed."
Mr.. Leps has woven the weird music
OF the savages OF the South Sea
dies, sometimes soft and sweet,
then loud and compelling. then
some drowsy weird strains. always
keeping in harmony with the ac-
ton of the play, and in so doing
has created a wonderful atmosphere
for this very unusual story of the
South Sea Island.
Eugene O'Neill. considered to be
Americas foremost writer for the
theater. had an unusually hard
struggle to win the recognition he
now enjoys. Although his father.
James O'Neill, was one of the best
known tragedians Of bis day. Eu-
gene O'Neill had to enter the the
atrical world through what might
be called the back door" His first
plays were produced by the Prov
incetown players down in Green
wich village in an old stable on
MacDougal street
The Emperor Jones" and DIFF
frent' were first offered for public
approval in this small theater and
there is where Adolph Klauber saw
In them the possibilities OF the popu-
lar uptown production which they
now have under his management.
II such men as Adolph Klauber
had not been on the alert. O'Neill
might have gone back to the ships
OF adventure" he writes about, an
unknown author.

Deep Psychology Woven
Into Columbia Picture
Buried Treasure" Answers Question of In.
tense Interest to Humanity

Buried Treasure" which begins
an extended run at Loew's Column
bia today, is a story clearly and
fascinatingly told by means of the
cinema. 1t is a beautiful series OF
pictures and more. II is an ap-
pealing love story and moro. 1t is
a tale of action and adventure and
more. For underlying 1t is the
question asked by every heart OF
the world. Shall we meet and know
and love again on the next plane of
our lives Buried Treasure" is a
mine OF comfort, for it answers the
question. The question is answered
Yes"
With a Belasco-like mastery of
the art Of creating atmosphere. this
Paramount picture is heralded by
scene 'in an old Spanish garden"
Then, to an accompaniment of the
slow. haunting music. Pauline Van

enticingly rogueish, Is discovered
trying to remember" Just as we
have tried to remember. something
far away and tantalizing. real but
elusive, some faint shadow of a long
gone event that vanishes while we
long to recall It. One of these
flashes of memory that psycholo-
gists says are fitful glimpses of a
life lived before, has come to Pau
line, played by the exquisite Marion
Davies. She Is dressed for a mas
querade ball.
Suddenly she seems transported to
another place and time. II am try

brother and friends interrupt the

Buried Treasure" is intensely
dramatic. A scene of a captain
