Always one of the political volcanoes of the world, the Balkans are crowding the front pages of the newspapers again. The unrest which exploded on that memorably tragic day at Sarajevo in 1914 has not been entirely stilled by the four years of war and the millions of lives sacrificed since a crazed student fired "the shot heard round the world." The motion picture has often followed closely upon the herald of important world news; but it remained for Jackie Coogan to embark on the filming of a story that presages the mid-European chaos. "Long Live the King," which Jackie is now making under the supervision of his father and the direction of Victor Schertzinger, tells a story of political imbroglio in the mythical Kingdom of Lavonia, typical of all the Balkan states. The author, Mary Roberts Rinehart, wrote this novel some years ago; but when the Coogans were seeking for the first story to be made by Jackie under his new contract with Metro, Jack Coogan, senior, selected this tale from the many under consideration, not only for its intrinsic drama and entertaining values, but also for its timeliness. He foresaw that conditions in the Balkan states were bound to bring on a political eruption — and that eruption has come to pass, even sooner than he expected. "Long Live the King," will be released as soon as possible after completion — it is now in its seventh week — and it will afford the American public a uniquely valuable opportunity to see the social conditions which exist in these little-understood communities and thus derive greater appreciation of the historical events transpiring there at the present time. Fundamentally, of course, the picture will be offered on the screens of the world as Jackie's biggest and most elaborate film, with a superlative cast supporting the starlet in his finest acting role, but the concomitant exposition of Balkan life will doubtless be of additional interest to audiences everywhere. Rafael Sabatini, whose Scaramouche," a romance of the French Revolution is now being filmed for Metro by Rex Ingram, is hailed as the modern Dumas. Coy Watson, Jr. Age 10.
