field VIII ch has not been overbur-
osned with good examples of writing
CT acting is a reminder Of the stage
DAYS of the Frohman comedy players.
So strong are the individual members
OF the cast that one may hesitate
to give first place to any one Of the
several leaders. Miriam HOPKINS,
who has numerous friends in Wash
ington, is associated in a series of
scenes with Kay Francis and Her
bert Marshall. while Charles Ruggles
shares with them some of the Mdi-
crous adventures of an experience
which centers around tae loss of a
jeW"led handbag. What has been
particularly achieved is to give to
the scenes and the persons repre-
sented those fine shades which have
not often been found in screen rep
reSentations, but have been confined
to the stage.
Miss Hopkins develops a character
which offers both the bland poise
and quiet deception of the forces
that prey in fine raiment, and the
emotional quality of the person who
has been deceived Kay Francis as
the woman of wealth who IS willing
to forget her position because of
admira ton for polished Swindler
has one of the most sincerely effec-
tive parts that have fallen to her in
long time. while Mr.. Marshall,
paying attention to both ladies. is
the suave character in which he
reaches his highest mark Com
plete lack of ethical motives on the
part of these outstanding partici-
pants in the affair is the most anus
ing part of the production.
Mr.. Ruggles. most fashionably at
tired. does his very best to create
incidental comedy, and others who
are deserving Of share in the
praise are Edward Everett Horton.

VIII Rogers at Fox
In Too Busy to Work"
ID ETRACING his steps back from
IN the exalted seats of the mighty,
Will Rogers once more spreads his
philosophy as a man of the red soil,
in his new film. Too Busy to Work,
now offered at the Fox ThearT.
The philosophy is much the same
the kind that grows out of the ex-
periences of the common citizen
vino has his faults, but spreads good
will among the people that he meets
and breatbes the courage that re-
quires no publicity. His new story
is from the fertile mind of Ben
Ames Williams. who might be
called the biographer in fiction Of
characters like those which have
been identified with the life OF Mr..
Rogers. Between them they have
produced a motion picture which
has charm and spontaneous senti-
ment. with abundant humor based
upon touches of human nature. To

81 Am a Fugitive"
Held Over Second Week.

AM A FUGITIVE FROM A
CHAIN GANG" is the strong
est and bitterest film ever devised
by Hollywood with a view to holding
lip certain national institutions to
shame. 1t deserves a high rank
among cinema achievements. Due
to what unouestionablv will be
called "one of the best ten per-
formances Of the year" tby Paul
Numb. and to the direction, the
picture more than warrants being
held over for a second week at
Warmers Metropolitan.
While the subject and the treat
ment of it are not parlor entertain
ment. while the brutality that is
said to go on in certain chain gang
prison camps is something other
than comfortable. and while there
is little or no humor. Il Am Fugi-
tive" based Oh chronicle of fact,
Is stark and strong entertainment.
Further than that it does not pull
its punch. Each scene drives
straight home and there is no
mincing of customs and manners.
Muni'S escape from the prison is
an unusually exciting sequence. So
are many Others The whole film,
as a matter of fact, is good drama

unhappy note-but we'll worth see

Brilliant Acting

Brilliant Acting
In PAYMENT Deferred"
THE gruelling experience OF a poor
L end unbalanced London bank
clerk are created with the utmost
fidelity in Payment Deferred now
current at Loew's Columbia. Acteo
bv that amazingly capable actor,
Charles Iaughton. this becomes sud
denly one of the more interesting
horror filmS-even If its theme is
frightening. its progress slow ana
its outcome more than pitiful IL
should. however serve to advance
the fame of the already famous Mr.:
Laughton. and provide students OF
the cinema with a sure index TO
some especially brilliant acting.
The musty atmosphere of shabby
home, the rains and fogs and other
climatic peculiaritieS are brought TO
life with thoroughneSs by Director
Lothar MiendeS. who has done his
best to copy the play from which
this was taken. The hideous ma
chinations Of warped mind also
are deftly portrayed by the genius
of his camera, which swings through
the horrid pages of this story with
extreme insight MendeS has made
even wine glass play an important
part-Since it suddenly becomes the
horrible center of crime as 1t falls
from the fiabby fingers OF Actor
Laughton.
Exceptional acting and a grue-
some theme. while apt to please GER
tain theatergoers, will not. of course,
appeal to the public at large. New
ertheless. Payment Deferred de-
serves more attention than has been
accorded it. Its gaslike setting. the
grotesqueneSs of it's crime, the way
the rain slips over that garden out
SIDE of the house, in which has been
tossed the murdered person Of an
innocent boy, these are horrid re-
minders of horrid theme. Never
theleSS, Laughton is so magnifl-
Gently the perfect villain, his crime
is SO heinous, and his punishment
SO cruel. that those who don't mind
rough and dreary tonic will enjoy
the utter funerealneSS of the whole.
If they want glum and gloomy en-
tcTtainment they will get it-at It's
best. too-since this undoubtedly
puts "FTankenstein" 'on the spot"
