984 T30 MOVING PICTURE WORLD October 29, 1921 R C PICTURES DORIS MAY» c/^ HuTit Stvomherff ProctvLction. Bingham & Cohen : "Different from the old line of comedies and satisfactory to flappers and grown-ups alike. Laughs are spontaneous and ring true. You have a great picture in 'The Foolish Age.' S. Barret McCormick : "You've accomplished something truly worth while in the realm of modern farce. 'The Foolish Age' is a thoroughly enjoyable audience picture of rare entertainment qualities. My very best wishes for continued success." Max Ascher: "After the audience preview of Doris May in 'The Foolish Age,' my opinion is that its the best comedy-drama 1 have had the pleasure of seeing. They get ten dollars' worth of laughs, and it's a picture that's just a bit better than the one you thought was best. Keep the good work up — and you have one of the best bets in the business." Eugene Roth and J. A. Partington: "Have just booked your delightful picture, 'The Foolish Age,' featuring Doris May, who we believe is one of the coming stars. 'The Foolish Age' is splendidly cast, well directed and will surely please every audience. Congratulations for continued success." NOTE: The Great Showmen whose authorized endorsements are printed herewith represent , those who have seen "The Foolish Age" to present date. National Board of Review : "The National Board of Review feels that the producers of "The Foolish Age' are to be complimented on their success in the field of legitimate satire on American society and customs. The picture is more than a mere comedy of situations. It is a comedy of manners containing a number of interesting criticisms of present-day foibles. The entertainment value is excellent, the dramatic interest well sustained, the acting excellent, the productional-directorial qualities excellent. (Thio recommendation in the form of a special praiseworthy report sent throughout the country.)
