Irene Dunn. Star at Keith's,
Has Unusually Strong Film.

IVES that leave a strong impress
sion on the small world of emo
t'onal experience. and create the
charm that may blot out distressing
incidents, appear in Consolation
Marriage" which has been chosen
TO introduce Irene Dunn as a star.
Her new film play. shown at
R-k-O-Keith's, is one of those
dramatic pieces in which there are
touches OF striking loyalty and mar
row escapes from disaster so cleverly
woven that there is a clear approach
70 that almost forgotten art of the
stage which makes every move
creative Of suspense and anxious an
tlclpation. 1t is beautifully written.
The name of the film offers but an
indefinite conception of the plot.
1t does not explain that consolation
marriage in this instance is the real
marriage-the one that unites two
persons. both OF whom might have
had a worse fate. Only a chance
meeting is the basis for the romantic
element of the story, but it is a
meeting which in naive quality is
one OF tha most intensely interest,"
ing that the films have presented,
ana II is the starting point Of a,
series OF experiences involving ad-
mirab!e displays of character. Rarely
mas stage or screen presented so
wildly the temptation to fee from
partnership which has seemed to
be facing shipwreck, with each of
the persons involved hating at the
stage OF actual separation, because
OF the greater attraction of home
and family. Filled with distinctive
lines by the author, and favored by
direction which has produced some
thing approaching perfection. it is
worth while as a play.
Beyond the dramatic workmanship
IS the outstanding merit of the per-
Torrance by Miss Dunn, which Is no
less pleasing than her work in "Cim-
AKRON. She is naturally endowed
with both the capacity for the
humorous phases which serve to in
troduce her to the future partner,
and fitness for the more pathetic or
inspiring developments of the later
scenes. Through it all she imparts
the navor OF personality to her work.
In the working out of the story
there IS also some excellent actin

Loew's Palace,
the Cuban Love Song"

Loew's Palace.
the Cuban Love Song"
I AWRENCE TIBBETT in the rofe
OF an American Marine singing
Peanut Vender" NAV sound incon-
g1uous, but 1t really isn't as bad as
II sounds
The Cuban Love Song" as pre-
scented at Loew's Palace, affords the
vocally gifted Tibbett opportunities
to demonstrate both power and
range Of his excellent voice, though
the melodies may not possess the
depth perhaps which one would as
sociate with an opera star
The lack of conviction which one
feels at seeing Tibbett as a Marine
is due rather 10 his physical in-
ability TO look the part of hard
boiled soldier and sailor too" who is
not generally visuali7ed as mus
tachioed and singing love songs be-
meath a tropical moon.
However, Marines do 90 to the
tropics. and they have the reputation
of falling in love with pretty seno-
rttas and 1t Is this angle Of the
Marines career which has been used
to present Tibbett to sing the Pea
nut Vender" in The Cuban Love
Song"
An ingenious bit of illusionment
is produced when Tibbett sings a
duet with himself The dual per-
sonality, achieved so frequently upon
the screen by clever manipulation of
the films, has been used in a vocal
number. In one of the closing
scenes, as Terry" the Marine he
forgets himself in memories of the
past and while in trance sings the
love song of former days. Suddenly,
the dim shadow Of his astral body
slithers out from the unknown ether
and takes its place beside the flesh
and blood" Terry, who sings the bass
to the Marines tenor. The effect is
rather remarkable.
The picture at its start produces
fears of heaviness and dragging, but
these are dispelled as the story is
unfolded, drawing to climaxes which
are both dramatic and unexpected.
Lupe Velez, as the little Cuban
peanut vender, who causes Terry to
forget Crystal, the girl back home,
