[5] Instantly one thinks of: Arrowsmith, the dramatic typification of the finest ideals of science. Broken Lullaby, presenting with equal vigour the struggle of an individual soul and of the world at large for true peace. Alexander Hamilton, marking a new phase in biography. The Champ, Emma, Slippy, Sooky, The Expert, all nearly perfect in their depiction of the simple, homely and price- less qualities of everyday life. Street Scene, a view of current humanity, to which the historian of the future will be able to turn as to no written document. Around the World in 80 Minutes, Tabu, Ran go. Trader Horn, Tarzan, new chapters in the drama of travel and wild life. Cimarron, revivifying a period of our national history. Shanghai Express, unusual, tumultuous, an experiment in the plastic art of the screen. Outward Bound, marvelous in its psychological presenta- tion. The Lost Squadron, Hell Divers, X Marias the Spot, Arsene Lupin, more indices of the new possibilities for melodrama.
