ADVANCE PUBLICITY Newspaper stories to be sent out three days before the first showing of “MADAME JEALOUSY” A complete departure from her usual style of photoplay will be found in Pauline Frederick's newest Paramount picture, "Madame Jealousy" in which she is to appear at the Theatre. "Madame Jealousy," by George V. Hobart, is an extremely picturesque allegorical photoplay which affords the actors chances for unusual dramatic acting and which has given the director, Robert Vignola, occasion to display his remarkable artistic ability. For instance in "The House of the Heavy Hours" there are scenes of the weirdest, most bizarre beauty where almost Oriental luxury predominates. Again, in "The Garden of Delight," a wholesome natural beauty of the out-doors appears. Throughout the whole the photography is excellent. In speaking of her newest Paramount photoplay, "Madame Jealousy," which is to appear at the Theatre on Pauline Frederick recently said: "It is perhaps a little incongruous for one who is portraying the very spirit of jealousy to dissetate upon its evil effects,* yet I feel that there may be some one who will misunderstand my attitude on the subject and I wish to make it perfectly clear that I regard jealousy as the most devastating, obnoxious form of evil to which the human being is subject. Throughout the entire picture Director Robert Vignola and I as well as the clever players who appeared with me, have endeavored to drive home this lesson. The breaking up of the charming love affair of the two average, happy young people. Valor and Charm and the subsequent misery— all caused by Jealousy and her servants. Treachery, Mischief and Rumor, tells a tale of its own. The production is artistic in the extreme and is the first allegorical production in which I have ever appeared. The scenes in "The House of the Heavy Hours" (the home of Jealousy) and again in "The Garden of Delight" are especially charming and I feel sure that "Madame Jealousy" will please my many friends all over the country. " At the Theatre on... admirers of Pauline Frederick will have an opportunity to see that star in a new and vivid role, the title role of "Madame Jealousy" which is a Paramount photoplay. "Madame Jealousy" was written by George V. Hobart and directed by Robert Vignola. The excellent cast includes Thomas Meighan and Frank Losee. II
