Wharton, Inc., Ithaca, New York The Celluloid Critic (Continued from page 49) who says and does the obvious things. This actor who flashed such talent in "Beau Brummel" is a good likeness, but there the comparison ends. He seems to be as much in the dark as the director in how to draw the character vividly and compellingly and sympathetically. The picture will arouse discussion — for Lewis is either liked or tossed aside. It may be that some readers, disappointed in the novel, will admire the film — and those who like the story will probably be disappointed in the screen version. More lightness and humor would have made it more human. HOW to Educate a Wife" (Warner Brothers) is one of those satires on modern married life written by no less an authority than Elinor Glyn. She doesn't tread on the sob pedal this time — and somehow by getting away from sermonizing on this eternal subject she comes closer to the truth than what is usually revealed under her signature. It's extremely light fare, but pleasant withal — and the idea points out the impossibility of educating one's spouse when she wants to become contrary. Most any husband will agree with this. The story offers a lot of little pretentions. There is a scheme afoot here when the husband's friend advises him to use his wife for vamping purposes. He cant see the plot at all. But she steps out and vamps one of the customers. And there's an end to the love nest. The rest of the fun deals with hubby trying to run his house single-handed — enjoy-( able incident interlaced with some delicate make-believe tactics toward reconciliation. Marie Prevost and Monte Blue, who are much together in pictures these days, make an excellent pair of battling lovers. And Claude Gillingwater furnishes some of that fine character talent as the "fall guy." The piece moves at a lively pace, keeps its sparks lighted thruout — and exudes more than a share of realities. Monta Bell, who directed "Broadway After Dark," shows that he hasn't worked with Chaplin in vain. There is subtlety in his work. F OOLS in the Dark" (F. B. O.) is as near an approach to clever melodramatic satire as we've caught on the screen in some time. We who have grown accustomed to seeing the old situations with the regulation characters — all of them developed in the same old way, (Ninety-four)
