BEVERLY" A
NEW ROLE FOR
MARION

Marion Davies, heroine of many
romantic roles, plays one unlike
any In her entire carer, in her
new Cosmopolitan starring vehicle.
Beverly of Graustark." now at
Loew's Columbia.
Miss Davies has played ro-
mantle heroines in historical
dramas of the past; has been
the center of court intrigue in
medieval times, has played roles
laid against the background OF
old New York-but this time she
is playing a romantic central
figure. in a European court OF
today.
Royalty goes through its devil
Gus political bargaining and its
Burbanked 1oves-just as in the
days of when Knighthood Was
in Flower" but 1t Is strictly up
to-date-so much so that a great
deal of actual modern history is
unconsciously echoed in the story.
Agnes Christine Johnston, who
adapted the story from George
Barr McCutchepn's celebrated
novel. says:
THE new picture will place
Miss Davies on a new pedestal,
for really believe that she, and
she only, could play this particu-
lar character. It is a romance
that could not have fitted her
better had the author written 1t
around her personally. It has
all the glamor of Europe's courts
and all the vigor of modern
America, blended into an ultra
modern story which proves that
the present day Is just as ro-
mantle as the days of yore."
A notable cast supports Miss
Davies in the new picture, which
Sydney Franklin directed at the
Metros oldwyn-Mayer studios. An.
tonic. Moreno plays the principal
male role. Creighton Hale, Roy
Darcy, of Merry Widow" and
La Boheme" fame; Albert Gran,
Max Barwyn and other we'll
known players appear.
