The people of it, wellto-do, sophisticated, bored to death, all set sail, by various notions led, on the same ship, and are submarined, reaching finally a desert island. Here begins a testing out of the stuff they're made of in nature's own little laboratory of primitive necessities. There's none of the usual desert island moralizing, for everybody is rescued before anyone is reduced to the stage of dressing in his button holes. It's a nice, clean, entertaining little picture with a good bit of common sense filtering through its fictiony proceedings. One sad. sad sub-title there is, in the print observed, which reduced the audience to giggles, involving the expression "sailors's." MOTHER O' MINE— Bluebird "Mother O' Mine" is a special Bluebird flight, made of sentimental old stuff, but stuff, alack, perennially true. Successful sons do neglect quaint, old-fashioned mothers, and such heartaches trail through the ages. Rupert Julian directed and played the neglectful son* efficiently, Ruth Clifford lent her wholesome self to a nice handling of the blueblood financee, and Ruby LaFayette did a mother of transcendent charm, giving the screen what Mable Bert has given the stage as Mrs. Bascom in "Turn to the Right." POLLY OF THE CIRCUS— Goldwyn Goldwyn, which has been laboring for almost a year, gave first glimpse of its accomplishment in the Mae Marsh photoplay, "Polly of the Circus" made from Margaret Mayo's play. It is a good picture, but not at all a great one. The difficulty was too many accessories. There was a great play, so far as success and popularity went, there was a great circus, and in aiming adequately to use both of these, the greatest asset of all, Mae Marsh, was overlooked. So the photoplay is full of circus atmosphere, designed to please small folk immensely — all show itself, like the circus they love, with glimpses of the alluring mysteries behind the canvas, but with none of the human conflict which is Mae Marsh's forte. In billowing tulle ballet skirts she has the chance to look bewitching, which she does, but there is not much further chance. She gets at the observer's heart through her translation of emotion, and when she has none to translate, she is lost. "Polly of the Circus" is made of things rather than of feelings. THE LITTLE DUCHESS— World "The Little Duchess" introduces another juvenile player to five reel featuring, Madge Evans. She has been World's baby, reuniting warring parents, and providing noble motives through many a reel of adult struggling. The trend of the times which is giving us youthful players as the mainspring of stories that are suited to them, is providing filmdom with many delightful bits of entertainment suitable for whole family consumption.
