traction will be The Best People,
a satirical comedy by David Gray

principal characters being a great
corporation lawyer, his wife and their
son and daughter. The latter has de-
Cidcd that she wants to marry the
family chauffeur, while the son falls
in love with chorus girl. After the
first shock of the thing is over the
father comes TO the conelu ion that
il would be better for all concerned
to get a little new blood into the
family, so everything ends happily.

good company, including Florence
Johns, Charles Richman, Margaret
Dale. Helen jackson. George Graham,
Gavin Muir, G.. Pat Collins, Hope

bered it hazily, but at the time of
the original release, four years ago.

Emil Janniings.

4 LTHOUGH born in New York of
\ German parents, Emil Jannings,
star of the new Italian version of
Quo Vadis,' has thus far confined his
screen career to productions made
abroad. He has appeared in various
countries in variety of roles and is
quite generally looked upon as one of
the finest character actors in the
cinema world.
Jannings left home at an early age
to join the crew of a small steamer.
Life at sea soon became odious to
him, however, and he made for shore,
joining troupe of travelling players
as slapstick comedian. After a few
years he entered motion pictures, and
was closely associated for a number
of years with Ernst Lubitsch. When
that director came to America it was
predicted that Jannings soon would
follow. Thus far he has elected to
remain in Germany.
