Lenore' s Leading Man.

GERALD KENT, who plays opposite
Lenore Uric in Pagan Lady," is
a Canadian and started his stage Ca
reer in his own country. Born in
Winnipeg, he received his education
at st. Johns College, in that city, and
first went on the stage as q member
of the Winnipeg Players at the Win

training in the matter Of stage tech

touring Canada, entered America with
the play. He has remained in this
country ever since.
Going to New York, he Joined the
films and appeared for Paramount in
support Of such stars as Gloria Swan
son, Thomas Meighan and Gilda
Gray. AS result Of an offer he re-
ceived from Fox Films, Mr.. Kent next
went to Hollywood and played In q
number Of Fox productions. But the
lure of the legitimate stage proved too
strong, and when he had fulfilled the
terms Of his screen contract he re-
turned to New York and Joined the

Williams Discovered.

Williams-for the second time.
The handsome young British actor
was first noticed by film scouts in
1925, when he toured the United
States and Canada in Journeys
End" and was induced to take a part
in the memorable screen version Of
Charles Aunt"
Then he returned to England and
the American cinema center proceeded
to forget all about him until a few
months ago, when he was cast In the
role Of the grown-up son, Kit, in the
new talking screen version Of Warwick
Deeping's "Sorren and Son."
1t wasn't until prints Of "Sorrell and
Son" reached Hollywood that the
powers Of the motion picture capital
remembered Hugh Williams. No sooner
had the picture been unreeled in a
preview projection room than the
cables to London began to sizzle with
offers to Williams to come to the
United States for featured roles. Fox
won, and Williams hurried over to
take the leading male role In "All
Men Are Enemies" starring Helen
Twelvetrees.
Motion picture fans will recall
Williams as the wistful. unhappy
young fellow in Bitter Sweet" whose
entire life was changed by the tragic
romance that formed tie basis Of the
Noel Coward story. His part was
brief, but extremely effective, and
when Herbert Wilcox made up his
mind to remake "Sorrell and Son" as
a talking picture, he also determined
to cast Williams as the son of Stephen
Sorrell. incidentally, the latter role
is again played by H. B. Warner,
whose silent characterization Of six
years ago in the same part still stands
as one of the outstanding histrionic
attainments In screen history.
Williams, too, Is particularly suited,
both in type" and style Of acting, to
the part Of the mature Kit. He has
all the quiet shyness that the role de-
mands, and he acts with admirable
restraint, especially in those scenes
where his mother. who had deserted
his father years before, Is seeking to
wean him away from the aren't whose
sacrifices had enabled IN to become
one Of the most promising young
surgeons in England.
A graduate of the Royal Academy
Of Dramatic Arts, Hugh Williams
made his stage debut in THE Charm
School" on tour in England. After
two and a half years with the Liver
pool Repretory Theater, he played
featured roles in THE Best People,"
"The Gold Diggers" and 1.-THE Garden
Of Eden" He spent q season with
Dion Boucicault In Australia, and later
appeared in the London productions
Of 1.-The Matriarch," Grand Hotel"
"The Firebird," Strange Orchestra"
and 1.-THE Green Bay Tree" In addi-
ton to Bitter Sweet" he appeared
in Rome Express another English
film.
"Sorren and Son" is again being
released by United Artists. the COM
pany which originally produced the
story on the screen.
