Brief Reviews of Current Pictures [continued from page 15 ] STOLEN BRIDE, THE — Fim National — A young countess, a sti rn parent, a marriageable officer — there you have it. It's a light farce with Billie Dove as its star. (.August.) SUNSET DERBY, THE — First National. — A jockey, a girl, a horse and a race. Not very original nor vi ry exciting. With Buster Collier and Mary Astor. (August.) SURRENDER — Universal. — An interesting and sincere portrayal of racial conflict in Russia between Christians and Jews. Mary Philbin does some fine acting. (August.) TARZAN AND THE GOLDEN LION— FBO. — The original "Tarzan" stories were good. This is one of the biRKcst pieces of nonsense ever fed to a suffering camera. (May.) TAXI DANCER.THE— Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.— An unsavory story of an ambitious girl's adventures in Manhattan. Joan Crawford manages to triumph over inferior material. (April.) TAXI, TAXI — Universal. — The sort of pleasant comedy that usually finds appreciative audiences. Edward Everett Horton and Marion Nixon are in it. (April.) TELEPHONE GIRL, THE — Paramount.— An engrossing drama, directed with fine intelligence by Herbert Brenon. May Allison gives one of her best performances and Madge Bellamy, Holbrook Blynn and Warner Baxter are also excellent. See it. (June.) TEN MODERN COMMANDMENTS — Paramount.— A back-stage story of chorus girls and suchlike, made better than it really is by the presence of Esther Ralston. (September.) TENDER HOUR, THE— First National.— Gorgeous setting, that means nothing, and a plot that means less. One of those "you must marry the Duke" stories. With Billie Dove. (August.) THREE HOURS— First National.— Underacting by Corinne Griffith; overacting by the rest of the cast. A slow and unpleasant story. Too harrowing for sensitive nerves. (Slay.) TILLIE THE TOILER— Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. — Marisa Davivs pla a t;': t oewriung geld diggei 181 an amusing film adapted from the popular comic strip. (August.) TIME TO LOVE— Paramount.— Raymond GrKfilh trying to prove how silly he can be — and proving it, too. Of course, if you have a lot.of time to wast. — (September.) TOO MANY CROOKS— Paramount— Mildred Davis tries a comeback in a silly story. It is not a success. Sorry. (June.) TOPSY AND EVA— United Artists.— Broad burlesque of the old story with Rosetta Duncan snatching most of the footage. Funny in a way and slightly vulgar. (September.) TRACKED BY THE POLICE— Warner Bros.— Rin-Tin-Tin deserves an extra helping of dog biscuits for making this picture good entertainment. (July.) TWELVE MILES OUT— Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. — Rum-running off our dry' coasts. A highly popular film with Jack Gilbert giving a sound and interesting performance. (September.) UNDERSTANDING HEART, THE— MetroGoldwyn-Mayer. — If it weren't for a thrilling forest fire, this would be one of the dullest pictures of the year, in spite of the work of Joan Crawford and Francis X. Bushman, Jr. (July.) *UNDER WORLD — Paramount. —Great story, great direction, great acting. A raw, red drama of the seamy side of life. George Bancroft. Evelyn Brent and Clive Brook are credited with hits. Not for the children. (September.) Any Part of Face, Neck, Arms, Hands or Body!
