A Potential Star.

4 MASTER of pantomime, Theodore
Koslon became fascinated with
the artistic possibilities of motion
pictures, and now there are rumors
that he will become a romantic screen
star.
His first appearance in films was in
Cecil B. De Miles Joan the Woman"
III which he played the role of an
Aztec prince. Since men Kosloff has
contributed a series of notable char
acterizations to the screen
A master of the art of makeup.
Mr.. Kosloff has been cast in a wide
range of characters, but it is as the
romantic hero. when opportunity is
given for his personal charm. his
grace and his good looks, that he has
seemed most in place.
Speaking of his many parts, Mr..
Kosloff says the most difficult make
up he ever experimental with was in
the prehistoric episode of Adams
Rib" 1t required three hours to get
ready for the camera. His most in
information for his part as the
Mexican dance-hall king in Fools
Paradise" He spent days down in
Old Town studying the Mexican types.
AS Pierrot during a sequence in THE
Green Temptation" Kosloff worked
out an elaborate makeup. His most
trying role, perhaps, was in THE Lane
That Had No Turning" with Agnes
Ayres. In this he had to gradually
develop into a hunchback.
The Koslof genius has made a vivid
impression upon the fans.

Similarities.

I lila LEE received letter recently
from a Lila Lee in Australia. who
is as fair complexioned as the former
is dark. Curiously enough, the Aus
tralian Miss Lee is also an aspirant
for a place in the motion picture
armament and suggests that IL she
ever realizes her ambitions one Of
them would have to change her name
Incidently. Miss Lee of Australia
reports favorably on the popularity
of the Paramount actress in her ma
tive land and predicts that she will
become a great favortte in the antip-
odes. The Letter follows:
Dear Miss Lee: After seeing YOU
in the Paramount pictures, Blood and
Sand and The Dictator I thought I
would write you few lines / think
that you are fine little actress. L
thought it strange coincidence that
your name should be the same as
mine. Maybe you will think so too
Although our names are alike, we are
not much alike in looks. You are as
dark as I am fair. I would love to go
to America and be in pictures, in
change our name. In closing I would
like to state that 1 would appreciate
very much photograph of my name
sake. (Signed.) LILA Lee
And-just like a press agent-he
adds it might be of interest to know
that the autographs of the two girls
are almost identical, 1t being prao-
tically impossible to distinguish one
from the other.

the time film companies were ad-

cure jobs.

The costuming of the prehistoric
characters for Cecil y. De Miles pro-
duction, Adams Rib" ran the gamut
of the clothes of human beings since
cave men, but this did not trouble the
minds of the costume designers.

During the past few years motion
picture audiences have become more
and more discriminating. They catch
a false note in any costume. So a
great organization has sprung UP at
the Paramount studio TO arr~ge
proper clothes for all occasions. The
research library knows how every
garment ever worn by man or woman
is fashioned.
Even the future is a field for the
costume designers, and visions Of pos

the quick changes in styles. and they

Then came Marshall Neilan's next
release. The Eternal Three" written
and directed by Mr.. Neilan himself
This is a GoldWyn picture. for re-
lease late in September. and 1 rank
it as Neilan's best production as well
as a strong argument in favor Of
original stories as against adapta-
tionS of novels and stage plays.
Briefly told. the story seems to lack
punch. 1t has to do with famous
surgeon. played admirably by Hobart
BoSworth. who has adopted street
gamin. When this adopted son is
grown the foster father marries a
young woman and the son tries his
Establishments on the stepmother.
Then the foster son is run down by
an automobile and the man whom he
has sought to betray has to operate
upon his brain. One slip of the knife
and all would be well for the sur
geon.
This sounds trite. but the way Mr.
Neilan has directed the picture is not
trite. He has made compelling
drama with cheap materials. and his
unquestioned success is due to the
way he develops his action scene by
scene
Bessie Love is the surprise of the
picture. l have never thought highly
of her work, and when, of late, 1
heard she was doing splendldly In
tragic roles l merely smiled cynically.
To my confusion / found my cynicism
absurd. She handles the part of the
doctors secretary in a manner that
is as good as Pauline Frederick at her
best. I am convinced that in Miss
Love filmdom has a great emotional
actress who heretofore has been
poorly cast or directed clumsily. Per-
haps both.
Raymond Griffith, a young man of
whom / have heard much of late, but
seen little, has Il fine part in the
Neilan opuS-that of the wayward
foster son. His work will bear watch
ing. He seems to be an unusually
able player and with great reservoir
of personal magnetism.

Los ANGELES, August 9-This
last week has brought to me the
privilege Of projection room preview
at various studios of several films of
unquestionable merit
[ have somewhat slowly and
stoically come to the conclusion that
the films are getting better, and as
l review mentally the photoplays not
Vet released which 1 have seen at
the studios of late gather full con-
fidenCc to state that this fall and
winter will see pictures on the av-
erage much better than those of any
previous season. There are more
extraordinary films coming out, more
merely good films and fewer trashy
films than in any other season within
my recollection.
This is partly due to the indie
pendent companies. which are bidding
Tor favor but in even larger measure
due to the new policy of the big COM
panies of making fewer and better
pictures and especially dividing their
expenditures among fewer produc-
tIons. The time is almost here when

One of the surprises met in my

tremely diYerting stage success by
George NJ. cohan. but it is also one
nf the talkiest of the Cohan operas

Sol Lesser studios, where the photo

Pictures release, prepared to be bored
instead i laughed and laughed and
enjoyed myself SO heartily that when

time had passed SO quickly I was sure
] had seen only 4,500 feet. Bert Lytell
plays the title role and handles it as
dcftly as any screen portrayal of his
which ! have ever seen.
An even greater laugh proyoker is

not be released until October. In this

quoted as saying.
The picture, now making at United
studios for First National release, it

gladness, much misunderstanding and

"Icebound." "

THE title Of Owen Davis play, Tee
bound" which won the Pulitzer
prize as the best play of 1929. and
which Sam H. Harris will present in
this city during the coming season.
Is said to be more symbolic than
literal. The subtitle used in the ad-
vertisements is claimed to best de-
scribe the character of the play, to
wit: "a warm-hearted play of cold
hearted people"
The Jordans were frozen up, due
partially to a mean environment. and
it needed an outsider, Jane Crosby, to
thaw the youngest Jordan of the sec
ond generation-the good for moth
ing Ben Jordan, who was the only
Jordan worth saving. The play is
described as a.vivid and stirring study
of New England life on the small
farm. Mr.. Davis was born and reared
in that environment.
