The picture is not slap-sticky
as in "a Dogs Life" or "The
Immigrant" To me it is as
funny and substantially done as
shoulder Arms" despite the
contention of some critics that
Mr.. Chaplin is growing alto
gether too sentimental.
"The Bat" has finally reached
the studio lots and is in course
0f production.
After four or five years of
steady playing in every city and
hamlet boasting an opera house
and becoming so well known
that villages recognize bur-
lesques on the play, there is
ingenious but unintentional
humor in announcement from
United Artists that the mystery
angle will be stressed to the
limit and screen audiences will
be asked not to divulge the
sequence of the play or its out
come.
Say they:
Roland West will picturize
The Bat as an Independent
special for release by United
Artists. He has completed plans.
to stress the mystery angle even
while the picture is being made.
"Nobody but the producer and
his staff will know the identity
of the cast or where the Sc
quences are filmed. Activities
may be shifted to some other
studio than the United lot.
''Visitors, including those
from various picture organize
tions, will absolutely be barred
from the sets.
"All actors and actresses will
be pledged not to reveal their
characters to anybody.
'The identity of The Bat is
to be shrouded in mystery until
the picture is shown, and then
audiences will be asked to CO.
operate by not giving away the
plot to those who haven't seen
the photoplay.
"West, who will direct The
Bat as we'll as adapt and pro-
Guce the screen version, plans
new COMPLICATIONS designed to
BATTLE even the authors, Mary
Roberts Rinehart and Avery
Hopwood." j.

structure in applying his makeup.
and thus avoids anything that
might hint at artificiality, while
still achieving the height of that
very thing.
CLANCY plays Eric, the "Phan-
TOM" man born with fear
some countenance, but otherwise
everything that a man could ask
to be; talented, an athlete, and
with a wonderful education. How
the effect of the horrible face on
others gradually brings this mans
mind down from the sublime to
the sinister is a study in psyche
logy that stamps the French au-
thor, Leroux. as a keen student
of criminology.

Chaplin. BEFORE she sailed, it
