The Filmgoers' Annual 77 -with JOHN BOLES and LUPE VELEZ "Resurrection," as a novel, has been translated into eleven languages. Sir Herbert Tree presented the English stage version by Michael Morton at His Majesty's Theatre, in 1903. As an opera, it was presented in 1925 at Chicago, by Mary Garden. LUPE VELEZ, with the completion of the part of Katusha Maslova, in "Resurrection," reaches the dramatic heights to which she has aspired ever since she began to be a player in pictures. The tales about Lupe being one of Hollywood's wild women are the opposite of the truth. Lupe Velez is a serious actress and a serious person, with all the ambition in the world. She went to Hollywood in the first place to get a footing on the musical comedy stage. Hollywood was not impressed, but, at last, she was engaged to dance in " The Music Box," and there Douglas Fairbanks saw her, with the result that she played as his heroine in " The Gaucho." Since then she has played in " The Wolf Song," 'Tiger Rose," "Where East is East," " Lady of the Night " (called in America, " Lady of the Pavements "), " Hell Harbour," ' The Storm," " East is West," and " Resurrection." In talking pictures, Lupe Velez, now under contract to Universal, will greatly enhance her reputation. She has a light, sweet singing voice and her speaking voice is extraordinarily appealing, as " Resurrection " signally exemplifies. In the opinion of D. W. Griffith, who discovered her and who is recognised as being, without any exception, the greatest star-maker in pictures, Lupe Velez is one of the most sensitive artists on the screen.
