" DRAMA III
The Resurrection of The Thief"
Alice Brady and Lionel Atwill Bring
Henri Bernstein to Life

WHAT happens when a mediocre
" play is skillfully produced is
superly illustrated these days at the
Ritz Theatre in the hands of Alice
Brady and Lionel Atwill.
Stated in terms of comparison one
is naturally led to say that the re-
suit is far happier than when a good
play is poorly produced and acted.
"The Thief" drama Of the draw
ing room and bourdoir school of
dramaturgy, is a typical exhibit of
the work of Henri Bernstein, boule-
ward playwright and emotional it'll
liant.
A country home-a drawing room
the host announces that a large
sum of money has been stolen-a-
private detective announces that the
hosts son, a romantic youngster Of
nineteen, is the culprit. He con-
fesses to the theft before the first
curtain-but the audience, through
the kind graces of Bernstein, dis
covers that-well, it's one of those
plays.
Under Mr.. Atwill's marvellous
direction this banal story and most
obvious mechanical claptrap took on
flesh and blood.
In spite of the fact that the play
ignores the social forces which drive
men and women to emotional and
spiritual heights or depths, and sub
situtes cheap theatrical tricks in their
stead, due to its perfect cast and
direction the play takes on a sem
blance Of reality.
Miss Brady read something into
her lines that Bernstein never
dreamed of when he wrote "The
Thief"
There can be no doubt that the
present, revival of this piece will be
financial success, which means that
it will be some time before we see
Miss Brady in a vital effort. Her
performance in ''The Bride Of the
Lamb" still remains her outstanding
Interpretation.
In the supporting cast Mona
Klngsley's capable work stands out
most intrusively and under circum-
stances which call for great praise
and admiration. Anthony Cooper as
the romantic youth is a good deal
more than adequate.
While the production as a whole
offers little to the seeker of native
proletarian theatrical art it affords
a lesson in conventional dramatic art
and craftsmanship.-C. Y. Fl.

On the Screen
The MISSING LINK

There are redeeming features to
this mediocre comedy. These are par
ticularly evident in the pantomine of
sgd Chaplin who brings his excellent
mimicry to the movies from the Eng
fish music halls. It is there, together
with his artist brother Charlie, that
sgd Chaplin got his training. In JUS
tice to sgd Chaplin, he has developed
his own movie style, and has become
a comedy star second only to his
brother.
AS a noted explorer, with whose
fame as a big game hunter the ma
tives are tremendously impressed, sgd
acts as referee in a fight between
two natives. The winner is to be-
come his bodyguard. He explains the
rules in pantomime, according to the
Marquis of Queensbury boxing rules:
no hitting in clinches, break clean,
and no hitting with the opponent on
the ground. 1t is excellent fun and
the following fight in which the rules
las usual in boxing) are absolutely
disregarded, is more good fun. Other
occasional bits of excellent work plus
the laugh-provoking antics of Aka,
a chimpanzee with pants on, are the
only redeeming features of this inane
and rather dull picture.
"The Missing Link" is a far, far
cry from that excellent comedy "The
chimpanzee as around sgd Chaplin,
gave us the hiccoughs from laughing
in his splendid characterization of
Old Bill. The gags in "The Missing
Link" built as much around the
Chimpanzee as around sgd Chaplin,
were by large rather stupid. No OPP
portunity was given this excellent
comedian to show his real ability to
advantage. Chuck Reisner, director
of "The Better ole" also directed this
film which will add no credit to him
self nor the star. Ruth Hiatt takes
the part of the blonde who is always
evident in the comedies for no reason
at all. Let us hope that the Warner
Bros. in their next sgd Chaplin COM
ic, will give us something better than
this rehash Of stale slap-stick acted
IN the jungles that so evidently never
grew in Africa. With the presence of
authentic pictures like "Chang" even
we armchair travellers can get wise
to fake movie props.
Additional compensation on the
program including the "Missing
Link" at the Colony Theatre in New
York, are the Vitaphone presenta-

tons. No matter how dull a program
may be presented, the Vitaphone is
always intriguing in it's demonstration
and vision of future possibilities.
