gage" does the very finest work Of
his career. He is interesting, curl
ously vital, dramatic and alive.
From the moment he makes his en-
trance, proposing to the adorable
Josephine Dunn until the moment
when high in the roof of the New
York theatre he prepares to lay
down his life to remove an obstacle
to her screen success, he holds the
attention of his audience.
It is as if he had made up his
mind that anybody can be q
comedian" and determined to show
the world that he could make q
highly keyed dramatic picture filled
with comedy; that would be all
things to all audiences. If that is
his ambition he may be said to have
achieved it. Excess Baggage" is
real comedy, real drama and knock

must appeal to all peoples. The tech
