A featured role is Jacqueline Gadson’s in Metro-Goldwyn Mayer’s “The Thirteenth Hour.” The cast includes Lionel Barrymore, while Chester Franklin is directing.
At the “five and ten !” Aisles of heaping counters, gorgeous with things one dare wish for — jostling, eager shoppers enlivened by the thought that here to desire is to have! A “five and ten,” that carnival of buying, uniquely American, is the setting Mary Pickford has chosen for her next United Artists production, “My Best Girl,” a scene from which is pictured above.
What a smile the screen has missed! For it belongs to F. Richard Jones, the director. Jones is now making Douglas Fairbanks’ next U-A release, “The Gaucho.”
Nine plug hats — but only one Harry Long, who stands (at left) with distinguishing modesty in this group of high-hatting comedy makers. Long is the masculine star of the “Keeping Up With the Joneses” series, which Stem Brothers is producing for Universal from adaptations of the similarly entitled comic strip. Gus Meins (fittingly enthroned) is the director.
Creed A. Neeper head of Harold Lloyd’s New York offices, has been in Hollywood concerning the two-reel comedies being made by Edward Everett Horton for Paramount. He is shown shaking hands with Horton (right), with the latter’s staff attending.
Evidently Gwen Lee thinks Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer a model employer, for here is the familiar trade mark being rendered in clay by that M-G-M star’s own hands. Miss Lee’s most recent role is in Norma Shearer’s “After Midnight,” just completed by Monta Bell.
