DANGEROUS FEMALES. Marie Dressier, Polly Moran. Direction by William Watson. Paramount. Clever acting has been proselyted by the theme. Two sisters mistake the new minister for an escaped convict, and visa versa, using “sex appeal” and liquor to hold their men until the police arrive. The humor is not of the highest order. Adolescents, 12 to 16 Children, 6 to 12 Not recommended. No. — o — THAT RED HEADED HUSSEY. Charley Grapewin. Direction by Alf Goulding. Comedy attempting to provide a remedy for future quarrels. It is deafening! Adolescents, 12 to 16 Children, 6 to 12 No interest and No. not recommended. WESTERN KNIGHTS. Eddie Lambert, A1 St. John. Direction by Stephen Roberts. Educational. Western slapstick comedy. Mediocre in production. Adolescents, 12 to 16 Children, 6 to 12 Amusing. Harmless. — o — TARZAN THE TIGER. A Serial. Natalie Kingston, Frank Merrill. Direction by Plenry McRae. Universal. One of Edgar Burrough’s stories filmed in chapter or serial form. It concerns the replenishing of family fortunes from the wealth of a ruined temple in the heart of Africa and is less startling than many serials. Adolescents, 12 to 16 Children, 6 to 12 Probably of Entertaining, but not little interest. highly recommended. SUBSCRIPTION TO THE REVIEWS OF THE MOTION PICTURE COMMITTEE.
