On the Screen
"The Wall Flower" at the Capi-
,oI and "when Satan Sleeps"
at the Rivoli
By Harriette Underhill

Some one said that Rush Hughes -
Rupert Hughes's son. and II this Is true
then congratulations are in order for
Rush has pleasing personality and a
nice way Of playing his part on the
screen. Also. II Hughes or. Is not
careful the laurels will be transferred
70 the Younger generation. So firmly
implanted is Rupert Hughes in the
hearts Of the movie fans that they
forgave him for "Come on over which
he nroduccd a few weeks ago. But ne
has followed this up with The wall
Flower" and all We can say - that
,,bc, aThe Wall Flower" found that
she was Il be presented at the Capitoi
she should have bowed modestly ana
said. Excuse me. please, but Hold
Your Hor0cs' Is going TO pineh MY ior
me" and every one would have oeen
delighted. There was comedy whleh
was worth seeing any number OF times.
The only thing in "Thc Wall Flower
that is convincing Is Colleen Moore,
and /. was not difficult for Miss Moore
10 convince US that she is not beauty.
We have always considered Miss Moore
an extremely plain looking young
woman, and because We intimated as
much In one Of our reviews several
persons accused US Of being spiteful
and prejudiced. The story which Mr..
Hughes has fashioned into The Wall
Flower" is the old story OF Cinderella.
and this is an ever popular theme, only
Mr.. Hughes wasn't content 10 let II
alone as IL has stood and entertained
for 80 many decades. As u Is now Il IS
Cinderella played with variations.
Miss Moore is ldalcne Nobbin, a
homely. awkward. badly dressed girl
who is always left alone against the
wall at all the dances. Through a
Joke. one Of the boys takes her TO a
prom dance, and here she has rude
awakening, for she hears her inadvert-
cnt beau offer another man his bull
pup and 81 20 take her of his hands
FOR the evening. ldalenc tries 10 com
nit suicide By throwing herself under
r. motor car. and II is the car OF the
hero. Richard Dix. This is their sec
ond meeting, and II Is also the second
time he has run over her. We can
fancy him saying TO her, "pm always
running across you"
We'll, the second time the car ran
over her both legs were broken. and
when she recovered from that she was
graceful. fascinating and chic. None
Of the boys who had treated her 50
rudely recognized her and they all
rushed to dance with her. The weak
point in this was that she didn't really
look so much different from the way
She had looked at FIRST. A French maid
had done her hair and she had on q
becoming frock. but that was all. And
she had learned how 10 Airt, too; 20.
