Imperial Theatre, who may be an
moved by "title readers" will not
have to suffer from this cause to
night, as there are no titles in "The
Lights of New York; the first all
talking picture produced by Warner
Bros.
Throughout the entire film the
actors speak their various lines, and
these are synonymous with the ac-
tion of the picture.
Many who witnessed the picture
last night were delighted with it,
the novelty Of the "all talkle,
adding much to the interest of the
picture. Even without the talking
feature, the "Lights of New York,
would be an interesting film. 1t
deals with the underworld night life
of New York in realistic manner
without STOPPING to mawkishness.
White Shadows of the White
Seas the film about which all val
leyitcs who visited the coast last
summer were talking, will be shown
tomorrow night. This is a silent
picture but on the same bill will be
"Thc Lions Roar Scnnett's first

While the musicians are sigh
ing over the growing popularity
of sound films because it must
soon mean fewer jobs for melody
makers, the situation has created
more positions for the motion
picture operators. However, the
union keeps a tight hold on
expanding membership. There
are a number of apprentices who
have worked for years in the

One of the regular readers of
this column-Mr. Sullivan, If
you must know-writes a letter
which will be printed Saturday
in the r. S. v. P. corner, calling
for a halt in the court room
features for the screen. He
thinks they are all strikingls
similar in method and content.
The troubles of hooters and
back stage folks and the Judi
cial procedure in first degree
murder trials have engaged the
Hollywood actors more than
other themes in the past six
months. Still, it is possible to
weave in some novelty and
commend Thru Different Eyes"
at the Fox Theater this week,
as an example of a court room
trial that is different. / confess
that I have heard at least half
= dozen solemnly robed judges
declare they would clear the
court room If another disturb
ance occurred. All in recent
films. While the gag Of having
the clerk make a jargon Of adj
ministering the oath was good
when first introduced in the
stage "Mary Dugan," but not
good enough to have every gold
coast director steal it and insert
as an original bit. AS mat
ter of fact this last bit of bust
ness was first introduced by Sir
James M. Barrie in Legend of
Lenora," many years ago.
"The Desert Song" has demon
strated that operettas will be
bought in wholesale quantities
by movie fans and you may ex-
pect a deluge of this type of
entertainment. However, this
outlook is pleasing. "Desert
Song" music is so superior to
the reiterated and overdrummed
theme songs there is no COM
parison.
Directors-and, for that mat
ter, producers-follow the leader.
: If one makes a fine feature of
certain type, he starts a pro-
cession. / think the real reason
for so many murder trial pic
lures is the fact that it was
convenient and economical way
of solving the problem of getting
over dialogue effectively.
