The Horse Is the Thing

Every novel does not make good
photoplay.
Fan Grey some time ago wrote a
novel which he called "Wjldfire" and
realizing the value OF the authors
name on the screen, Goldwyn made a
movie Of it under the title of When
Romance Rides"
The movie director probably thought
the sight of a heroine strapped to the
back of a wild Western horse dashing
toward a cliff would give the neces-
sary punch" to an otherwise tame
affair.
The chief fault with when Ro-
nance Rides" appears to be the fail
ure of the director TO knit together
several good scenes into a big climax.
There is one unique scene-that de-
voted to the capturing and break
ing" Of wild horse. The beginning
of the picture smacks Of the great out
of DOORS but the introduction of a
half wit" into the plot reduces the
story to a cheap melodramatio basis.
The cast is only fair. the best work
being done by Claire Adams and CARL
Gantvoort. Tod Sloan, a CORNER
Jockey, is in the cast.

plainly theatrical.

any other form OF life. Compared
with them, man is a feeble weakling.
