fly, whose ruin was to a large ex- tent brought about by the machin- ations of the sinister Rasputin, known also as the Mad Monk and Holy Devil"
 "Rasputin and the Empress" is something more than a mere screen drama. It is modern history only slightly fictionized. The dra- matic story of the last days of a tottering throne, of the intrigues and orgies of the uncanny Rasput- in who obtained firm hold on the
 royal family through his hypnotic influence on the invalid Czarevitch and thus ruled Russia from behind the throne, are more impressive in their bald facts than any flight of fancy.
 The same may be said of the performance of the Barrymores. Ethel Barrymore, who plays the Czarina, was a personal friend of
 that ill-fated empress, and one senses that her portrayal is more than mere acting, and that she is projecting to her audience . per- sonal recollection of a close friend. John Barrymore offers an- other finished portrayal as the debonair and romantic Prince Chegodieff, whose romantce with the Princess Natasha, played by
 the English stage star, Diana Wynyard, runs as an undercurrent
 through the heavier interludes of
 the plot.
 The "meaty' role, of course, the evil-1ooking Rasputin, he offers AA t-4n 4ot ~yfxyfA nnH SSp1nR- gettable performances. Whether he is carrying on irritation with one of the court ladies, threaten- ting the Czar, or working his hyp- notic influence on the little Grown Prince, there is invariably a mag retic touch about this actors work which makes it stand out as some- thing to be remembered and talk
 ed about.
 There are so many excellent
 players in the large cast of "Ras-
 putin and the Empress that it Is difficult to single any one actor
 out for special praise, but 8 word
 must be said for the admirable per- formances of Ralph Morgan as the
 frustrated Car, the beautiful and
 talented Miss Wynyard in the TO-
 mantle lead, Tad Alexander as the
 Czarevitch, c. Henry Gordon as
 the Grand Duke Igor, and Edward
 Arnold as the court physician.
 For sheer magnitude of scenes
 and settings, "Rasputin and the
 Empress'is a picture which has.
 not been equal1ed since the days of
 such silent picture epics as Ben
 Hur" and "Intolerance." Impress
 sive in the extreme are the bril-.
 liant throne-room and cathedral sequences with hundrds of uni- formed players in reproductions of
 the most colorful court ceremonies
 in the world. In directing this pic-
 ture, Richard Boleslavsky has dis
 played a rare ability to combine inc
 timate drama with dazzling spec
 tacle. "Rasputin and the Empress"
 will stand out as one of the finest talking pictures ever produced.

"HelPs Highway" Is the title of an epic of the sorrows and laughter of road camp convicts, coming Sunday to the Cameo theater, with Richard Dix heading an unusually powerful RKO-Radio cast.
 As the tough, 1arge-hearted, re- a1istic convict, Duke Ellis, Dix is said to strike tremendously ap- pealing note.
 While the picture Is powerful dramatic and not a preachment, the prison conditions 1t reveals, ac- cording to advance reports. are cal- culated to stir humane people to deep consideration of prison mis- management.

Mae West in
 Done Him Wrong
Barter in Dangerously Yours" C0-Feature at
 Garden

Mae West, most spectacular fig
 ure in the current Broadway thea ] trical world, makes her debut as a screen star in "She Done Him Wrong lusty melodrama which she herself wrote, and which comes to the New Garden theater Sunday and Monday. "She Done Him Wrong" is a story of the New York Bowery, with its collection of wide- open saloons, wise guys, and frivo- lous danes. It centers around a
 singer known as Lady Lou, who has a way with men and who ac- cepts their attentions in return for diamonds. Her collection of gems, so great is her popularity, is ran som for half a dozen kings. Miss West appears in that role, Noah Beery is the saloon-keeper who Is furnishing the jewels at the mo- ment. Cary Grant is ostensibly the head of a nearby mission, who turns out to be as susceptible to her charms as any of the natives of the district. A startling, dramatic climax follows their mutual dis covery of this fact. Miss West sings three songs during the course of the picture-the famous old ballad, Frankie and Johnnie," and "A Man What Takes His Time" and
 Haven't Got No Peace of Mind" The latter two were written espe- cially for her by Ralph Rainger, composer of "Moanin' Low"
 "Please," another popular suc- cesses. While "She Done Him
 Wrong" is Miss Vests starring first
 picture for the screen, 1t is not her first screen appearance. She played "a character role with George Raft in Might After Night"
 Warner Baxter. popular screen star is at his suave, romantic best in Dangerously Yours," his latest Fox film production which is the companion feature. In tho role of charming society jewel thief, Bax- ter makes 1t seem almost pleas ure to be robbed. Miriam Jordan, who made her screen debut oppo- site Baxter in "Six Hours to Live

Mae West in Strand Booking
Exotic Actress Featured in ''She Done Him
 Wrong"

Mae West, popular Broadway favorite, makes her first screen appearance one that will result in a demand for more of this type oi pictures, in she Done Him Wrong which plays the Strand theater Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
 Miss West, who wrole both the story and the dialogue, gives her role a brilliant and vivid treat. ment and puts over her lines with a cracking spontaniety that speaks we'll for her own ability and that of Lowell Sherman, who directed And her torrid rendition of your favorite old rag-time ballad, Frankie and Johnny" is some thing to get up and cheer about. Miss West also sings two brand new hit tunes, Haven't Got No Peace of Mind" and "A Man What Takes His Time"
 Quite as effective as the bril- liant portrayal of Miss West is the plot which twists and turns in any number of surprising ways, yet which succeeds in keeping perfect ly logical. Miss West, as Lady Lou, entertainer in a sinister cab aret in the heart of New York's colorful Bowery district, is the love-interest of every man who visits the cabaret. Her passion is diamonds and her current pro- wider, as the film opens, is Noah Beery, proprietor of the cabaret and leader of a ring of counter feiters. However, he has plenty of competition in David Landau, powerful political boss and Gilbert Roland. handsome Russian coun- terfeiter. But Lou has eyes only for Cary Grant, a crusading mis- sion worker.
 A series of climaxes begins when the cabaret is raided by the Hawk. an unknown detective who single-handed smashes the coun- terfeit ring.
 The companion feature Danger ously Yours" shows what happens when a charming young lady de- tective sets out to use her femin- inc wiles to catch a spave gentle man crook.
 Warner Baxter is starred in the role of the society thief, and the Miriam Jordan, recent recruit from the Broadway and London stage, has the part of the girl sleuth em- ployed by an insurance company
