ARTCH»FT STUDIOS, Dept. 03. 3900 Sheridan Road, CHICAGO. GOLDEN STRAIN, THE— Fox.— A worthwhile photoplay of Peter B. Kyne's story of the boy with the yellow streak. (February.) GOLD HUNTERS, THE— Davis Dist.— A fairly interesting Curwood melodrama about a trapper who finds the map of a lost mine. (January.) GO WEST — Metro-Goldwyn. — Hardly a comedy because hardly a laugh. Yet the picture is very interesting. " Brown Eyes," the cow, gives a fine performance. (January.) GRAUSTARK — First National. — Norma Talmadge and Eugene O'Brien in a new version of the old story. (November.) GREEN ARCHER, THE— Pathe.— A stirring chapter play with more thrills than Sherlock Holmes. Worth following. (March.) HALF WAY GIRL, THE— First National.— Doris Kenyon in a story of the sordid side of the Orient. (October.) HANDS UP — Paramount. — Raymond Griffith as a Confederate spy in the civil war. Right funny. Marion Nixon and Virginia Lee Corbin make adorable heroines. (March.) HAUNTED RANGE, THE— Davis Distributing. — Ken Maynard, a newcomer, joins the "heavy ridin' brigade." Just another Western. (November.) HAVOC — Fox. — Showing the disastrous effects of the war on London society. A dismal drama is relieved by George O'Brien. (November.) HELL'S HIGHROAD— Producers Distributing — Cecil B. De Mille again gives the low-down on the lives of the rich. Leatrice Joy is starred. (November.) HER SISTER FROM PARIS— First National.— Constance Talmadge, Ronald Colman and George Arthur make this one of the funniest comedies of the year. But not for the children; oh dear, no! (Nov.) HIDDEN LOOT— Universal.— A straightforward story with Jack Hoxie as a deputy after a gang of crooks. Fine for the children. (January.) HIS SECRETARY— M-G-M — The story of the ugly duckling better done than ever before. Norma Shearer unbelievably homely for a few feet, then her own ravishing self. (February.) HIS MAJESTY BUNKER BEAN — Warner Brothers.— A good plot is ruined to make a slapstick holiday. Matt Moore massacres the title role. (Nov.) HOGAN'S ALLEY— Warners. — We hate to say it — but don't go. A hash of every Bowery story ever made with Patsy Ruth Miller mimicking Annie Rooney all the way through. (February.) HOME MAKER, THE — Universal.— A domestic drama with an unusually intelligent plot and fine acting by Alice Joyce and Clive Brook. (October.) INFATUATION— First National. — Dull and uninteresting. But Corinne Griffith fans will go anyhow because it's worth anybody's quarter just to look at her. (March.) IRISH LUCK— Paramount.— Tom Meighan in a good old Irish yarn with some gorgeous shots of the Emerald Isle itself — and Lois Wilson. (February.) ISLE OF HOPE, THE— F. B. O— In which Richard Talmadge does his daily dozen. (November.) JOANNA — First National. — Well, Dorothy Mackail] is always good, but she almost gets snowed under this impossible story. (February.) JUST SUPPOSE— First National. — Richard Barthelmess is a prince of Europe who falls in love with an American girl, played by Lois Moran. Very mild entertainment. (March.') KEEPER OF THE BEES, THE— F. B. O.— Not worthy of Gene Stratton Porter. Little Gene Stratton, the girl-boy, is very interesting. (December.) KENTUCKY PRIDE— Fox.— The biography of a race horse, interwoven with a human story. (October.) KING ON MAIN STREET, THE— Paramount.— A dandy picture, with the suave Adolphe Menjou as a European king on a holiday in New York. And Bessie Love doing the Charleston. (January.) KISS FOR CINDRELLA, A— Paramount.— Barrie. Betty and Brenon. the incomparable trio. A beautiful fantasy of the little slavey's dream of marrying a prince, {February.) KNOCKOUT, THE— First National.— If you like Milton Sills, maybe you'll be able to believe that he looks like a lie.ht heavyweight champion. (November.) LADY WINDERMERE'S FAN— Warner Bros.— A very smart film version of Oscar Wilde's sophisticated play. (February.) LAST EDITION, THE— F. B. O— An exciting story' of the inside workings of a great metropolitan daily, with Ralph Lewis as foreman of the press room. Good. (December.) LAWFUL CHEATER. THE— Schulberg.— Clara Bow, masquerading as a boy, makes her personality count in spite of a far-fetched story'. (February.) LAW OR LOYALTY— Davis Dist. Co.— Again our friends, the Mounted Police, struggling between love and duty. Fairly interesting. (December.) LAZYBONES — Fox. — A real characterization of a small town fella given by Buck Jones in a well told story. Fine supporting cast. (January.) LET'S GO GALLAGHER— F. B. O— Introducing a new Western star. Tom Tyler. The boys will like him. Good fights, stunts and rescues. (Dee.) LIGHTNIN'— Fox.— Much of the rare humor of the stage play is strangely missing from the screen version. Rather routine entertainment. (October.) LIGHTS OF OLD BROADWAY— Metro-Goldwyn.— Interesting for its historical sidelights on early New York. Marion Davies does a dual role. (Jan.) LITTLE ANNIE ROONEY— United Artists.— In which Mary' Pickford returns again as Queen of the Kingdom of Childhood. A thoroughly delightful picture. (October.) LIVE WIRE. THE— First National— Johnny Hines in the title role. Lots of "gags" and roughneck comedy. (November.) LORD JIM — Paramount — A fair translation of the well known book with Percy Marmont giving a good performance. If you don't know the book, the picture is a pretty good melodrama. (January.) LORRAINE OF THE LIONS— Universal.— The story of a little girl cast away on a desert island. Patsy Ruth Miller, as the girl, is rescued by Norman Kerry assisted by the long arm of coincidence. (October.) LOVE HOUR, THE— Vitagraph.— The heroine goes to Coney Island and wins a millionaire. It's one of the silliest pictures of the year. (November.) LOVERS IN QUARANTINE— Paramount.— The younger set will think,this hot stuff. Their elders may be amused. Bebe Daniels and Harrison Ford, good. (December.) LUCKY HORSESHOE, THE— Fox.— Wherein Tom Mix falls asleep and dreams that he's Don Juan. Just another Mix success with Tony and, as an added attraction, Ann Pennington. (October.) MADE FOR LOVE— P. D. C— Arabs, a wicked prince, an indifferent fiance, and some mummy excavating make this interesting. (February.) MAN FROM RED GULCH, THE— P. D. C— Harry Carey makes a pretty good Bret Harte hero. playing the good Samaritan in the desert. (February.) MANNEQUIN — Paramount. — Somewhat disappointing as a Fannie Hurst prize story directed by James Cruze. (February.) MAN ON THE BOX, THE— Warner BrothersSpend a good evening with Syd Chaplin. (December.) MAN WHO FOUND HIMSELF. THE — Paramount— Thomas Meighan goes to Sing Sing for a crime he didn't commit. It's Meighan at his most noble. (November.) MASKED BRIDE. THE— M-G-M.— Mae Murray as an Apache dancer and the toast of the Paris cafes. Mae can dance, nobody will deny that; but rather disappointing after "The M«rry Widow." (Feb.) MERRY WIDOW. THE— Metro-Goldwyn— A brilliant and gorgeous screen version of the romantic light opera with Mae Murray, John Gilbert and Roy D'Arcy contributing three of the finest performances of the year. (October.) MIDNIGHT LIMITED, THE— Rayart.— Gaston Glass and Wanda Hawley make a good team in this railroad melodrama. Above the average. (February.) MIDNIGHT SUN. THE— Universal.— The story of an American ballerina in Russia, grand dukes and moneyed power behind the throne. (February.) MIDSHIPMAN. THE — Metro Goldwyn — A rather juvenile story, but it brings back Ramon Novarro, and that's enough for most fans. (December.) MIKE — Metro-Goldwyn. — A Marshall Neilan bag o' tricks. Fairly amusing through the efforts of Charlie Murray and Ford Sterling. (.March.) MY LADY'S LIPS— B. P. Schulberg.— A crook melodrama that is lively and often amusing. (Oct.) MY LADY OF WHIMS— Arrow— Clara Bow again as the carefree flapper who defies Papa and goes to live in Greenwich Village. Pleasing. (March ) [ CONTINUED ON PAGE 14 ] Kvery advertisement In PHOTOPLA7.
