Marion Davies an
Emotional Blonde
in Brides Play
New Picture Drama at the
Rialto Almost Escapes
Without a Climax.

RIALTO-Marion Davies in "The Brides
Play IA Cosmopolitan production for
Paramount adapted from story by
Dom Byrne and directed by George
Terwilliger. Scenario by Mildred Con-
sidine.
Once again Marion Davies adopts the
daring expedent OF wearing dark wig.
and once again. as in Buried Treas
ure," ono is automatically notified by
this means that here is no comedy, but
an emotional romance. Automatically
likewise, as In that earlier production.
one is carried back several centuries,
enabling Miss Davies to appear in her
own golden curIs and demonstrate her
versatility.
The story is distinctive In that It al
most escapes without climax, being
caught by the coattails and having a
dramatic moment fastened on It as it Is
about to evaporate. For five reels it
ambles along pleasantly and innocently
with Its tale of wealthy and romantic
convent girl In Ireland who falls in love
with young Celtic poet. only to dis
cover that he is tickle and courts as
many women as he wrote about in the
poems that first attracted her.
OF course a poet. one might point out
has to be inspired by various subjects
for the same indispensable theme OF
Eros. But Aileen repudiates him and
takes in marriage one or those strong
silent men whose worth Is never recog-
nized despite close friendship until
they have spent two-thirds of the pic
ture purstng their lips and mutely wish
Ing the girl would have more sense.
Comes the wedding day, and then
according to an old custom of the BRIDE
groom's family occurs the brides play
when she asks each Of the male guests
IL he Is her true lover-and, of course
will only take mo- for an answer
But an old crone tells how in the
Middle Ages E,,id of CasheH was ans
wered with yes by her noble sweet
heart. and Immediately eloped with
him. bouncing away on his charger.
Similarly the poet hurries to the we'd
ding and answers yes" at this cere-
mony-and promptly gets smacked on
the cheek with the brides slipper.
This result had been largely foreseen.
so that 1t lacked much of tho spirit Of
another blow for Irish freedom. Miss
Davies seems to be turning to double
roles frequently of late. and somehow
sne must nave heard the whisper that
she looks stunning in medieval cos
tunes. Likewise such vehicles usually
pave the way for two weddings in a
picture. and probably the star, like most
actresses, may feel that the ideal pic
ture should contain at least six we'd
dings-one for each reel.
No ore could look more decorative
in her regal costumes. and Miss Davies
again shows herself the leading logical
candidate for screen bride. The
medieval wedding is undoubtedly the
most opulent and picturesque shown on
the screen. and one woman spectator
summed UP the splendor suitably with
Some costumes, huh!'

Norma Talmadge Is
a Tame Wild Cat in
'Love's Redemption
Her New Film Covers Much
Ground Between West In
dies and England.

STRAyD-Norma Talmadge in Gloves
Redemption. Joseph M. scnenck
production for First National. adapted
from Andrew soutar's novel "0n Prin-
eipIe' and directed by Albert Parker.
Scenario by Anthony Paul Kelly.
At last 1t has been discovered by the
film pundits that persons in tropical
Chimes can persplre and still have noble
passions. That is symptomatic of the
sincerity in this picture--folks mop their
foreheads and make this a photoplay of
temperament and temperature. Norma
Talmadge and Harrison Ford. again her
leading man, earn their laurels by the
sweat of their brows.
The picture can do with such sincerity.
for its theme Of the younger son Of Eng
lish aristocracy who is drinking himself
to death IN Jamaica and is saved by q
West Indian girl has unfortunately lost
much Of the luster 1t once possessed be-
fore the movies claimed 1t for its own.
The dramatic resiliency of this situation
Is that it always seems find for a new
generation of theatergoers.
Here the girl daughter of Spanish
woman and an English gentleman. Is
married to the young man and taken to
England despite her protests, which for
tunately are unheeded--for this gives
opportunity for a change of climate and
for Miss Talmadge to appear enhancing

Miss Talmadge is finding her greatest
success of late in exotic roles, and that
OF the waif whose spirit wins her the
name of Ginger is one Of her best,
though her spiciness Is rarely evident
except when she is chasing marauders
over u wall with a beer bottle. tf
AS a matter of fact, Miss Talmadge
does not quite encompass the role, for
there Is certain fine dignity about her
personality that hardly goes with a'wild-
cat. But this part seeks also to reveal
that all the little mothers are not con-
fined TO England, Ireland. Scotland and

That Had No Turning,v Paramount
picture adapted from the story by Sir
Gilbert Parker and directed by Victor
Fleming. Scenario by Eugene MulIin.
Among other notable features this
picture presents the most lifelike repre-
sentation of King George V. in movie
fiction. Most men who impersonatc the
King of England on the screen look as
though they had been picked out of a
crowd of extras and touched up as we'll
as possible. But the present figure in
his brief flash on the screen not only
bears close resemblance. but does not
appear to need director shouting at
him, Now look royal I"
More than this, the photoplay is
notable for having neither a straight out
and out villain nor a straight hero, who
Is generally just as intolerable. 1t has
two men who are a little of both, which
has been known to happen In actual
life often. That Is one register of it's
approach TO reality. for all its flourish
ing of knives and pistols.
Its core Is the heart OF n Canadian
prima donna. acclaimed abroad as the
worlds greatest singer. whose skeleton
in the closet--what is opera without
such skeletons? Is a hunchbacked
husband. Straight enough in youth, he
has fallen prey to his hereditary pre-
disposition to u malformed back. and
the diva gives up her career, that was
bringing command appearances before
kings. to devote herself to keeping
straight and smooth his numbered days.
Then comes the melodramatic modus
operandi without which most movie
stars seem unable to keep their heads
up.
The large estate at Pontiac possessed
by her French Canadian husband is
claimed by another Canadian. who had
done kindness that won him the
legacy before he became so embittered
that his mouth was fallen arch. This
claimant, Fotiyrel, clamors for a search
for one of those wills that will always
carry n story through thick and thin.
Most OF the story is concerned with the
struggle to keep this will from doing its
naturally deadly work. In the course
of that conflict the irasclble husband
fights duel with the claimant, and it
Is touch of humanity in the picture
that the other unheroically faints al
though pinl<ed only slightly.
In her first starring venture alone
Miss Ayres appears to her best advan-
tage, and that shining suggestion OF
tears behind her eyes for once seems
part OF the picture and not mere eye
strain from Tn studio lights.
