jandro Perez Lugin. Direction by Robert Leonard. M.G.M.
Previously reported in preview in April under the title “The Gay Troubador”. It is a pleasant musical romance of average interest.
Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 6 to 12. Passable. Little interest.
HER UNBORN CHILD. (English Cast). Directed by Albert Day. Windsor Pictures.
This is a serious drama concerning the problem of the unmarried mother. The subject is discretely and delicately handled by a capable cast, ably directed. Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 6 to 12. Doubtful. No.

HIS DARK CHAPTER. Reginald Denny, Meriam Seegan. Direction by George J. Crone. Sono Art. (Seen in preview).
Farce comedy about a young Englishman whom necessity forces to masquerade as a tramp, and whose personable appearance and pleasant manners complicate the situations considerably. Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 6 to 12. Entertaining. Entertaining.
INGAGI. Photographed by Sir Herbert Winstead F.A.S. Lecture accompaniment. Congo Pictures Ltd.
The picture gives an excellent idea of actual jungle life in the Belgian Congo, as the explorers with their party of natives trek into the heart of the Ingagi or gorilla country. It is extremely interesting and educational and the final dramatic climax of the native sacrifice of a woman to a ferocious gorilla is very exciting. We must admire the amazing courage and patience of the men who
make these adventures available to those less venturesome.
Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 6 to 12. Educational and interest Too exciting, ing, but exciting.

LADIES OF LEISURE. Ralph Graves, Barbara Stanwyck. Direction by Frank Capra. Columbia.
The story in itself is trite and rather false. It is about a woman of easy virtue who falls in love sincerely, and realizing the harm she may cause her lover, attempts suicide. The theme is redeemed somewhat by the cast which presents it.
Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 6 to 12. By no means. No.

THE LADY OF SCANDAL. Ruth Chatterton. Direction by Sidney Franklin. M. G.M. Based on the stage play ‘The High Road” by Frederic Lonsdale.
This is a treat for discriminating mature audiences. It concerns the efforts of a decadent aristocracy to prevent the marriage of the young heir to a popular actress. It is a delicious satire on baronial home life and is a perfect setting for Miss Chatterton’s reserved acting. Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 6 to 12. Interesting. No interest.

THE LOVE RACKET. Dorothy Mackaill. Direction by Wm. A. Seiter. F. N. Adapted from the play “The Woman on the Jury”.
This melodrama discloses the difficult situation of two women “tainted” by an amorous scoundrel; one on trial for the man’s murder, the other on the jury. It is an unwholesome type of play devoid of charm, sparkle or originality. Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 6 to 12. No. Decidedly not.
