''TOL'A ABLE DAVID"
WINS PH0TOPLAY'S
MEDAL Of HONOR.
Voted by Followers of the
Screen Greatest Motion
Picture in 1921.

Photoplay's second medal of honor.
for the year of 1921, has been award
ed to the Inspiration Pictures, Inc,
production, 'Tol'able David" The
award was made by the readers Of
Photoplay, thousands of votes having
been cast to decide the question.
'"Tol'ble David led in the avalanche Of
votes by a safe margin.
1t will be remembered that Photo
play awarded its first medal of honor,
for the best production of 1920, to the
Cosmopolitan production of "Humor-
esque." In first announcing it's plan to
award an annual medal of honor, Pho
toplay defined its qualifications of a
great picture as a combination of
theme, story, direction. acting. con
"vibrant With Atmosphere"
"Tol'able David" was based upon a
short story by Joseph Hergesheimer.
Praise for its production seems to be
pretty evenly distributed. Its star,
Richard Barthelmess, deserves credit
for first seeing it's screen value. With
his director. Henry King, and his CON
tinuity writer, Edmund Goulding, he
worked for months with Mr.. Herge-
sheimer perfecting a bullet proof
script. MUCH Oh lAS tAttiltAIr VI III
detail and atmosphere later revealed
by the finished film was due to this
thorough preliminary work.
A great deal of credit goes to Di-
rector King. who so successfully caught
the spirit and feeling OF fine Virginia
backwoods. "TToI'able" David was vi
brant with carefully created atmos-
phere. Indeed, ''Tol'able David lifted
Mr.. King to the forefront of Il most
promising directors.
Medal Is Beauty
Photoplay devised its idea of award
ing a yearly medal of honor to further
aid the development of the motion pic
ture play. Il felt that such an award,
selected by the film fans themselves.
would be a worthy and distinguished
compliment to the men who gave their
best towards lettering the photoplay.
The Photoplay Magazine medal of
honor is a thing of distinct beauty. 1t
is of solid gold, weighing 13 IL pen
nyweights. and is two and a half inches
in diameter. 1t was executed, as was
the medal of honor of 1920, by Tiff
fanny and company of New York.

cause bobbed hair is not becoming to

An elaborate. scenic production OF
'Ihelma," a decentralization of Marie
Corelh's famous novel, is the offering
Of the Adeline Rumble Players at the

mencing tonight. The story of the
little Norwegian girl who becomes the
wife of an English nobleman and finds
herself surrounded by fashionable So
ciety which she does not understand
and which. in turn. makes life miserable
for her with its petty jealousies and
unkind criticism, is toe well known to
make repetition necessary. 1t is a
beautiful story with a wealth of good
comedy to tighten the serious moments.
Miss Muriel Owen will be seen in the
role Of Thelma. Miss Owens person
atty is especially suited to such a char
acter. But Thelma is not the only
character that stands out prominently.
The %toothless old nag, Loyisa, who
showers her curses on all that is good
and beautiful, is a character that long
will be remembered. Miss Adeline
Rumble will be seen in this role.
Olaf Guldmar, the picturesque old
Norseman and Thelma's father, will be
played by Howard Foster. Another
well remembered character Of the book

ms has been engaged to play this part.
Lee Tyrrell will be seen in the pleas
ing role Of Sir Philip Harrington, while
Robert Thorn will again be seen in a
comedy role. Miss Leon Clark will be
seen as Britta. Other members of the
cast have been assigned to suitable
roles.
Special attention has been given to
the scenic production Of the play. Vic

ment for the scenic effects. Among
other interesting features there will be
a practical waterfall into which the
maddcned Sigurd leaps to his death

effect. The first two acts OF the play

'kNGHTH0OD' HITS
RECORD MARK FOR
DRAWING CROWDS
Marion Davies Starring We
hicle Continues to Attract
Movie Fans.

Newspapers in the smaller cities
have commented with some amaze
ment over the fact that Cosmopolitan
Productions wonder film, When
Knfghthood Was in Flower starring
Marion Davies, drew a packed house
in Los Angeles on the opening night in
spite of the fact that seats sold at s.
each. Not only was this true of Los
Angeles, however, but of New York.
Boston and Washington. In each of
these cities where seats also sold at So
apiece on the opening nights, there
was such a demand for tickets that
many were turned away.
For the first time in the history of
motion pictures 1t has been necessary
TO put on four full performances a day
for a picture not playing continuous.
This has happened in New York where
four shows a day are now the rule at
the Criterion theater on Saturdays
and holidays. This was made neces-
sary because of the immense and con
tined patronage in spite of the fact
that when Knighthood Was in Flow
err, is now in the ninth week of its run.
Producers are carefully .analyzing
the picture now to determine the ele-
ments which have brought about its
amazing success and made such an in
Simultaneous appeal to the public. First
of all perhaps has been the absolute
excellence of the entire cast of play
ers, each one seeming to have been
particularly adapted to the role he or
she plays. Marion Davies in the role
of the charming Princess Mary Tudor
mas achieved the greatest triumph for
which any actress could hope.
The splendid direction by Robert G.
yignola and the superb settings by
Joseph Urban combined with the ex-
eellent acting make the thrilling story

sorbing interest from start to finish.
