Directed ty LOIS WEBER asco of tke S creen orrowtfd Clothas " When » Cirl Lpy#s' Homa " Torbiddtfif* A STORY somewhat like "THE PRICE OF A GOOD TIME" but a picture with a flavor all its own — in which Mildred Harris and Lew Cody give you a slice of life involving an innocent little person's passion for clothes complicated by other passions not quite so innocent, all done with that wondrous restraint of which Lois Weber is complete master. A DIFFERENT kind of a Western— a Lois Weber Western — in which Mildred Harris does everything that nobody ever expected her to do and does it superlatively well. And you get in this whirling drama the best fight ever staged between two men. We'll let that bet go "as it lays." A PICTURE for everv girl about to be married and most of those who are married. Designed throughout by Lois Weber — who knows more about what women like in a screen drama than any other woman director you can name. That's why she put a real husband in the story. A BRILLIANT drama that swings from small-town to biff city and carries a young person into affluence, only to discover that she isn't satisfied at all — but must go out adventuring — so she promptly has — some adventure ! And comes meekly home to hubby — and a his surprise. Another Lois Weber-Mildred Harris triumph.
