TWELVE STARS IN CECIL DeMILLE'S
PRODUC ZION
"TE1E AFFAIRS OF ANATOL~

Remarkable cast headed by Wallace
Reid, Gloria Swanson, Elliott Dexter,
Bebe Daniels and Agnes Ayres seen in
superb picture.
Twelve stellar players and supporting
cast of unrivalled quality-that's the rec
ord set by Cecil B. DeMille's latest Para
mount masterpiece "The Affairs of Ana
tol," which will be shown at the Colonial
Theatre next Monday and Tuesday. The
roster reads like screendom's who's who.
The phrase "all-s star cast" is much
abused one but it adequately describes a
cast that includes Wallace Reid, famous
Paramount star; Gloria Swanson, Elliott
Dexter, Bebe Daniels, Monte Blue, Wanda
Hawley, Theodore Roberts. Agnes Ayres,
Theodore Kosloff, Polly Moran, Raymond
Hatton and Julia Faye.
Nothing like this cast in the way of
aggregate talent has ever been assembled
before. The drawing power of almost
any of the names on the roll has been
sufficient to awaken the interest of the
discriminating public. Here, for the fiji st
time, they are appearing in single pro-
duction under the direction of master
producer-Cecil B. DeMille.
"The Affairs of Anatof" was written by
Jeanie Macpherson, author of many no
table Cecil B. De eMiIle productions. Her
story was suggested by Arthur Schnitz-
ler's scintiilating comedy of the same
name.
The same quality that is featured in the
cast of principals and in the authorship
has been carried through every phase of
production work. The supporting cast
Includes such capable actors as Guy Oil
yer, Charles Ogle, Clarence Geldart,
Maude Wayne, Ruth Miller, William
Boyd, Lucien Littlefeld and others. The
beautiful settings are the work of Paul
Tribe, famous French artist, designer and
decorator.
