The real murderer's confession saves the day, and likewise the tar. It has its lapses, this story, but they arc as few as we have come to expect from Joseph Josephson, one of the sanest and most human of screen story adapters, and for all its hokum we found the picture dramatically, sentimentally and pictorially worth while Lloyd Hughes is modest and wholesome as the hero, Gladys George does nicely by tin- heroine. BEHOLD MY WIFE Paramount-Artcraft THERE is. in "Behold My Wife," which George Melford has screened from Sir Gilbert Parker's "The Translation of a Sav- age," the sort of romance that appeals to all the primitive story-loving instincts of the widely known human race. A proud young Englishman seeking a fortune in the Hudson Bay country hears from home that his fiancee has married another man. He is led to believe his own family had de- liberately planned to influence the match. To be even with them he drinks a pint of likker, marries an Indian girl, Lali, the daughter of old Eye-of-the-Moon, and ships her to England as his wife. Then the pic- ture becomes Lali's. The good sports of the English family, dismayed and shocked though they are. take the savage in hand and, of course, turn her out a raving beauty in two reels, so that when the English chap, stricken finally by remorse and put on his feet by a two-fisted surveying gang fore- man, returns to England to recover his squaw, he finds her the social sensation of the season and the mother of a fine little son. There is color and action, both in the north country scenes and those in Eng land; and a nice regard for detail and good taste. The only weakness the story reveals is in the lack of a sufficient excuse for the English hero's determination to be revenged upon his family. He had little reason to believe they had conspired against him. which weakens both the force of his subse- quent action and the effect of Lali's arrival in England. But the romantic appeal car- ries the storv through and it is well played by Mabel Julienne Scott. Milton Sills, Elliott Dexter and Ann Forrest. HARRIET AND THE PIPER— Louis B. Mayer-First National THEY cannot all be best-sellers, these stories of the sporty young ladies who marry in Greenwich village and repent at lei- sure. This one about Harriet of "Harriet and the Piper," though it was taken from a Kath- leen Norris story, neither stimulates the imagination nor irritates because of its lack of probability. In picture form it is just a movie about a heroine who tried the trick of living her own life, bobbed her hair, danced the shimmy, smoked the insidious cigarette and finally married the handsome j gent who proposed that they sign a con- tract to live together so long as both were content with that arrangement. Then she suddenly suffered a change of heart and repented of her bargain. So far as she was concerned she was ready to break her con- tract at the boudoir door. But her selected mate, being a rough fellow, was not at all of the same mind as she. However, Harriet got away, and from that time on she was constantly being called upon to "pay the piper." Finally she found happiness and a bear hug in the home of the Carters, where she found work as a social secretary. Mrs. Carter, like so many other frivolous wives. decided to run away with Irv Cumnnnn- which left Charles Richman to Harriet, oth- erwise Anita Stewart. The cast carries more conviction than do the adventures of the heroine. By Photoplay Editors THE DANGEROUS PARADISE — Sclznick LOUISE HUFF left Selznick BOOH after this picture was made. We merely men tion it. Louise doesn't have much to do in this flippant society drama but look at tractive, which .-he does without half try ing. Selznick society is more weird than any of our screen conceptions of upper crust existence. The heroine is "gorged with admirers but starved for the right one." Of course the right one comes along—if you can stay for the finish. MAD LOVE—Krcmer HELL, or so we have been told, know- no fury like a woman scorned. You can imagine what Lina Cavalieri, with her Latin temperament, would do with a role like that. Madame vamps her way through the five reels, presenting, with all the articu lation that can be distinguished by mean- of the hands and arms, a pretty good argu ment for female wile and wit against mascu line brawn. Muratore, her husband in real life and incidentally a great tenor, provides the virility. It's a foreign picture, and while the behavior of all those concerned may seem a trifle mad to our Amdo-Saxon minds we must make allowances for tem perament. not forgetting the first two svl lable- BLACKMAIL—Metro THIS is a tale of astonishing connubial -Uadfastness, the account of an earnest young man who loves his wife even though he knows she has been a crook. Yiola Dana is the beautiful blackmailer who finally breaks down and in a touching scene con fesses all. When we tell you that Wyndham Standing is the husband, you know she is gladly forgiven. This sort of thing i- ill rieht if you like this Sort of thing ALWAYS AUDACIOUS- Paramount-Artcraft THERK will be considerable cardial con gestion at all box-offices this month Wallace Reid. in his latest and merriest com cdy, is essaying a dual role! He gives 09 two entirely different characterizations to consider in this lively Ben Ames Williams tale of double identity. Up to the very last minute, no one in the cast or the audience is at all certain that the young millionaire is going to establish his claim to his own fortune in the battle with the young crook who resembles him. The finish, as deft a> it is satisfying, is too good to give away Margaret Loomis is a charming heroine James Cruzc did the swift and snappy di reding. This is a picture well worth your time and trouble, to say nothing of the tax HONEYMOON RANCH— Bert Lubin-State Rights THE question is, do you or don't you? Do you yearn for the good old-fash ioned "western;" do you pray for a re turn to the dear old days when Bill Han et al. filled two reels full of ridin' and Every tdf Ule B U Pt in rrtOToPLAT MAGAZINE is purtntecd.
