DIRECTOR PAYS
CHATTERT0N
A TRIBUTE

Ruth Chatterton can express
an emotion more accurately by
deft suggestion than perhaps any
stage actress who has come to
the talking screen"
This is the tribute Of Sidney
Franklin following his direction
of the actress in THE Lady tf
Scandal" Metro-Goldwyn- -Mayer's
filmization Of Frederick Ions
dale's stage hit, THE High Road," "
which is now at Loew's Palace.
THE art of Ruth Chatterton,' v
says Franklyn, "is an evanescent,
inexplicable gift for projecting
thoughts to an audience which
is almost uncanny. Strangely
enough she is equally adept at it
in silent pictures, for her first
picture, silent, showed it. USu-
ally the stage player relies wholly
on words, but she does not. At
the same time nobody reads d,a-
logue more intelligently.
"She does not learn lines. She
learns the meaning of them, until
she absolutely feels the role. She
may change a speech for one
that can be spoken more easily,
but she always gets the exact
meaning into it. Because she Is
able to do this we don't have to
insist on direct adherence to a
written dialogue with her. Her
mentality makes it an inspiration
to work with her. Lionel Barry
more told me this after he had
directed her in Madame X but
1 didn't fully realize how true
it was untn I too had worked
with her"

No, this amt the daily summary
of a hotel register. it merely COM
prises some of the varied roles Ed
mund Lowe has played in his
screen career during the past nine
years. Though he has held com
missions" without number in
military pictures, his portrayalS
of "non-com" have won him his
greatest acclaim, as witness What
Price Glory" In Old Arizona"
and The Cock Eyed World"
His first gangster role was in
Dressed to Kill" which created
something of a sensation in the
late days Of silent pictures. In
his latest offering for Fox Movie
tone, Born Reckless" which Is
at the Fox Theater this week, he
again plays the part OF gang
ster, but one that is very different
from the usual type gunman Of
the screen.
Directed with remarkable dram
attic force by John Ford, the maker
of Men Without Women" and
-Four Sons" the production re-
veals for the first time the real
truth about the commercial pi-
rates of today. Catherine Dale
Owen, Lee Tracy, Warren Hymer,
Marguerite Churchill, William
Harrigan and Frank Albertson
have the other featured roles, and
Eddie Gribbon, Paul Page, Ben
Bard, Roy Stewart and 'Yola

players. Dudley Nichols wrote

Desiree Harris Can
Initiate q Barnard

It's almost too late to mention
this but the fact should be re-
corded for the benefit of those
who might require a barnyard
for entertainment purposes. In
Jerry" which the National Play
ers did some weeks ago, an Off
stage device intended to imper-
senate a rooster sounded so much
like a crying baby that Director
Brooke was baffled.
Young Desiree Harris, Of the
troupe, stepped into the breach
thereby labelling herself the only
female rooster in town. Pigs,
lowing kline, neighing horses and
other impediments of the rural
sections are duck-soup to Desiree.
AS a youngsters her mother
taught her to initiate them all.

Anne Profits

Arthur Leslie Smith, who has
made and lost fortunes in the
Washington theater, takes pen in
hand to observe that this columns
observation about Terry Duffy
making $35,000 on "Abie's Irish
Rose" was less than 100 per cent
correct.
Impresario Smith, who was a
partner in the President Theater
venture, admits the profits were
heavy, but the Duffy portion Of
the box office velvet was turned
over to Author Anne Nichols, wife
of Manager Duffy, at that time.
Well, Arthur Leslie, it was Terry
Duffy who spread the report that
his wife had given him her prize
play, Able" for production in
certain cities, with the more than
intimation that whatever he made
on the play belonged to him.
Mr.. Smith further reports that
his partner lost no money in
Washington, but did drop all Of
his profits trying to make a go OF
the Crescent Theater in Brooklyn.
It was then that he tried to end it
all, but proved to be a poor marks
man.
Word comes direct from Holly.
wood that aspiring authors are
wasting their time trying TO
write back stage stories. That is,
If the purpose is to sell them for
the talking screen. Back stage
stuff il taboo. To a lesser de-
gree, murder trial and mystery
yarns are no longer in demand
and the underworld fiction which
reaches production will have GO
be very good, or at least have a
startlingly original twist.
It will be interesting to see
what D. w. Griffith has done
with Abraham Lincoln" which
he has just finished for United
Artists with Walter Huston as
the Immortal Emancipator.
Interesting, because every pro
'ducing company will be watching
ut closely to see how it appeals.
If it turns out to be smashing
hit look for a run Of talking
.pictures with historical characters
as the film heroes.
Although the Rocket Brothers
dramatiZed Lincoln for the screen
and made an excellent silent fea-
ture around incidents in the life
Of the Civil War President, it was
only an artistic success. It brought
the Rocket boys to the attention
of the industry and since they
have become important produc-
ton executives.

the life of Francois Villon by Justin
Huntley Mccarthy quarter of
a century ago; for here we have
dramatic sweep and brilliant dia,
logue rather than elodic
glamour.
In fact, as we witness the dis
tinguished acting Of Dennis King
as Villon, jeanette Macdonald as
Katherine de Vaucelles, and Lii.
liam Roth as Huguette and o. P.
Heggie as Louis XVI, we are i'm
pressed by the fact that in THE
Vagabond King" the noble legend
woven by the playwright is Of far
more significance and beauty
than the music which Rudolph
Friml has writ n into it.
There may be some who find
THE Vagabond King" a trifle
rhetorical and turgid in this swift
moving age, who find its roman
tic tale stilted when contrasted
with the drama of a realistic
era. To us, however, the nara
tive of IF I Were King" dts
original name) is as rich and
fragrant and memorable as the
works Of any Of the Victorian
romanticists. and We lend our
selves easily to its spell.
The entire production is in
technicolor and many compost
tions of eye-arresting beauty are
unfolded in it. There is no fault
to be found with it save in the
fundamental and controversial is
sue as to whether light opera Of
the leisurely fashion Of a genera
ton ago meets all the require
mentS of screen technique; and
The Vagabond King" goes far
towards settling that issue by
placing the music in a distinctly
subordinate place. A. M. j.

Favor History

I have often heard it said that
Charlie Chaplin yearns to top off
his career by playing Napoleon,
although the coming of the talk
les may have taken the edge off
this ambition, for the little come
dian has marked English accent.
Roxy is another great admirer
Of the French hero and those who
profess to know the intimate side
of the supershowman claim he
likes to contrast incidents in a
meteoric rise in the amusement
world to similar steps in the
career of the famous warrior.
There is talk of Roxy going into
the production end of pictures, so
Why not a Napoleon feature?
There is. it seems to me, a
wealth of fine movie material in
the American biographical litera-
ture. About Andrew jackson, for
instance, many volumes have
been written and a number of
plays. His life teemed with color

PICKING UP
EASY MONEY
BY ANDREW r. KELLEY

Vaudeville and pictures are
after the newspaper writing
celebrities. Haywood Broun has
just completed a week at Keith's
Palace Theater in New York for
which he drew down $1,000 and
cut it among four worthy chari-
ties.
Broun gave a monologue, o. x.
for New York. but considered Of
doubtful value in any theater
away from Broadway. So the
one week constitutes the two-a-
day engagement.
Greater circulation will be given
to the talents of Damon Runyon,
whose sports writing is a Wash
ington Herald feature, and Mark
Hellinger, with some fame as a
colunnist. They will appear in
a Vitaphone short film called
THE Round Table" and will be
assisted by Gentleman jim"
Corbett and the always ready
De Wolf Hopper. When these
-four get wise-cracking it should
dbe worth hearing.
