Norma Talmadge in "The Eternal
Flame,

Norma Talmadge's most recent
and most opulent production for
First National. The Eternal
Flame" is on view at Crandalrs
Theater the first three days of the
current week. beginning yesterday.
In this subject, Miss Talmadge has
the perfect vehicle for the display
of her manifold talents-perfect in
story development, investiture. act
ing and photography.
Adapted from Balzac's La Ouch
esse de Langeais," The Eternal
Flame" unreals the story of a beau
tiful young woman who, deeply
wounded by the insults of her prof
ligate husband. becomes the reign
ing coquette of the gay court of
Louis XVIII of France. Tainted by
a friend whose rivalry for social
leadership was keen. about her ina
bility to enlist the interest of Gen.
Montriveau. the Duchesse sets her
cap for the gloomy man whose rep
utation was that of woman hater.
Not only does she succeed too well
In awakening the most passionate
love in the heart of Montriveau, but
she herself falls victim to a love as
deep. From this situation is built
climax and denouement that hold
interest and multiply admiration for
the artistic discretion revealed by
the director, cast and cameraman.
Miss Talmadge is radiantly beau
tiful in the stellar role and Conway
Tearle has never been so well cast
as in the role of Moptriveau. Others
of note who appear in important
parts are Rosemary Theby. Kate
Lester. Irving Cummings, Otis Har-
Ian. Adolphe Jean Menjoua and
Wedgewood NOVEL;.

BELASCO.
Herman Timberg's .Froli

ef"" ii"perBs "r rOiics OF 102S.
Else and Paulsen. the marvellous
skaters; Herman TimbeFg. with his
quaint Quips and witticisms, and
Hattie Darling. pretty and shapely,
are the high lights of Timberg's re-
vue. "Frolics of 1922" the unit show
which forms this weeks attraction
at the Belasco. In addition. the pro-
duction is distinguished from cur
rent vaudeville. among other things,
by the fact that nobody. at any
time. offers a Gallagher and Shean
imitation, and rare is the vaudeville
bill nowadays without one. The pro-
gram lists a Gallagher and Shean
number, but evidently it was decided
to remove it.
The show gets away with a novelty
prologue showing how a theatrical
manager goes about the job of put
ting a revue together. Next the girls
are introduced. and they are good
looking enough, though lacking a bit
in pep.
The vaudeville really starts when
Hattie Darling and Sammy Timberg
put on their piano-violin speciality
and becomes decidedly interesting
when Miss Darling appears in a no.
tably abbreviated but becoming cos
tune. She sings, dances and plays
the violin to general approval, while
Timberg does stunts on the piano.
The Else and Paulsen revue. in
which the great team of skaters ap-
pear, presents an Apache dance num-
ber on skates. Else and Paulsen use
an ice substitute that apparently has
all the merits of the real article. and
they perform feats that one would
Sly. even after seeing them. are
pretty nearly impossible.
Herman Timberg makes his ini-
tial appearance after the skating
scene and probably will succeed in
immortalizing himself with his au-
dience by propounding the great
problem of the year: What is II
that grows on the desert and does
not look like a ukelele?" There's an
answer for it. but even Timberg
has to think for a while before he
can recall what it is. Timberg is
well known in Washington. and his
characteristic specially proved ef-
fective. as usual.
Nat Navarro presents Buck and
Bubbles in a ragtime specially, and
the revue which makes up the sec
ond part of the program centers
about the theater box Office and
checkroom and the conflict of joys
and glooms.

duced in Rome by J. Gordon Ed
wards. and everything that could be
found in nature or built to stand
nitude. its novelty and it's thrilling
interest seems to have been success
fully utilized.
Much of ancient Rome at the time
when the tyrant Nero was at his
zenith and human life was held
cheap at court has been reproduced
and peopled with a cast and ensem-
BILE so judiciously chosen that the
highest pitch of realism is attained
The massive buildings with their
e'A SN'NS iui phSoi =
trappings have all the appearance
of being genuine. Legions are
massed and moved through valleys
and over mountains. Mobs, the like
of which the screen has never
known before, swarm through the
streets and pack the great Circus
Maximus. The chariot races are
dizzying and the spectacle of the
hrIc fIsaN1 L. H. 40
picted in its every CHASTITY detail.
The burning of the city is literally
a city burning. the effect heightened
by clever employment of natural
color photography to make the
leapinG flames seem all the more
real.
The acting is superb. Violet
Mersereau is the only American in
the cast, the others being assembled
from the stages and screens of Italy,
France, Russia. Denmark and other
continental countries.
In the title role Jacques Gretillat
star of the French stage. offers
a. characterization that will long be
remembered by those who see it.
Mons. Gretillat is endowed with
features, physique and temperament
that equip him especially well for
the difficult task with which he is
confronted. Paulette Duval and
Edy Darclea. as Poppaea and Acte,
rivals for the favor of the Emperor
are both beautiful women of con-
trastihg types and gifted actresses.
Two unusually effective portrayals
are contributed by Alexander SAL
vini. as Horatius, and Nero Bernard,
as the young apostle of the Chris
tian faith.

when Knighthood Was in

Cosmopolitan production in which
Marion Davies offers the great, out
standing characterization of her
whole cinema career. has apparently
settled down for real run at
Loew's Columbia Theater. where
this masterpiece of photoplay art
began its fourth week yesterday
afternoon.
"Knighthood" is a picturizsd ver-
sion by Robert G. vignola of tn.
famous story of chivalry and ro-
nance in the days of the Tudors of
England. 1t is a production con-
ceived on a massive scale. executed
with force and delicacy and placed
in a setting of golden. jeweled
splendor that makes even more re-
markable the splendid outstanding
characterization OF Marion Davies
in the role of princess of the
blood who defied her kingly broth
er. Henry VIII of England. and who
selected the man of her choice
in spite of kings and courts and
the royal traditions of centuries.
The settings which make
"Knighthood" such marvel of
beauty were created by Joseph Ur-

signer who has made the settings

RIALTO.
George ArIiss In THE Man Who
Played God"

A vrOgram of unusual merit was
presented at Moore's Rialto Theater
yesterday, the show featuring George
Arliss in THE Man Who Played
God an adaptation of the story of
the same title by Gouverneur Morris.
In the title role the star drew a
capacity audience. He plays the
part Of John Arden. world famous
musician, suddenly deafened by the
explosion of a bomb meant for one
of the monarchs of Europe. He re-
turns to his New York home. a cynic
embittered to the point of driving
away his friends and even turning
his young bride against him. He
contemplates suicide, but through his
knowledge of lip-reading learns of a
tragedy greater even than his own.
Here he begins the game of playing
God to life's unfortunates, and finds
it so enthralling that he ceases to
think of his own misfortune.
Believing that his bride has learned
to love another. he drives her from
him that she may have her freedom
Through a trivial accident he re-
gains his hearing: learns that his
wife still is his in heart and soul. and
they are reunited.
Mr.. Arliss presented a character
that was so real as to seem a living
personality. Others in the cast who
give surprising performances are
Ann Forrest, in the leading feminine
role; Effie Shannon and little
Miriam Battista and Mickey" Ben
nett. the latter being child stars who
come in as proteges of The Man
Who Played God"
One of the supplementary fea-
lures of the program gives four
members of the orchestra a chance
to cover themselves with glory. The
four in question are II. Sokolov, first
violin; C. V. Burrows. second vio-
lin; II. Pearlman. viola. and c. Ker-
shaw, cello. appearing as the Rialto
String Quartet. and giving two
delightfully."- enjoyable selections.
Pochon's beautiful arrangement of
the melody, Drink to Me Only With
Thine Eyes" and Beethoven's
'Minuet in G." both numbers win
ming well deserved approval The
interpretative score. with which Di-
rector George Wild has surrounded
the feature showing, is likewise
worthy of special mention as it adds
materially to the enjoyment of the
presentation.
The concert film features measure
up well to the high standard of the
entire bill. laughable juvenile
comedy, entitled Young Sherlock,
a beautiful and Instructive scenic
"A Blanket Stiff" Topics of the
Day" and an exclusive showing of
the Fox News all contributing to
make the showing one of which the
Rialto has every reason to be proud.
