In trying to remain honest with herself, the heroine confesses her need of funds to the usual poor young man who loves her for herself alone. He, reflecting the attitude of his cave men ancestors, decide that she also needs a lesson, as a result of which decision he first loans her money on the engagement gift her rich suitor has provided and then marries her himself. He delays the lesson until some lime in the suggested future, however, and thus the pleasant ending is guaranteed. Miss MacDonald suggests the Maxinc Elliott of twenty years ago and she is also blessed with an intelligence and a poise that give character to her performances. Her supporting company in this instance includes Winter Hall as the rich but lonely millionaire, and Roy Stewart as the handsome youth with cave-man instincts. GEORGE LOANE TUCKER AT THE BAR I AM glad to read that Mr. George Loane Tucker is making so valiant a fight for his rights as a director. As the producer of "The Miracle Man" he certainly is entitled to his part of the fame resulting from the success of that picture, and the advertising campaign conducted in its behalf. So far as the screen version is concerned, he is practically the creator of the best picture of the year. And if it happen that Mr. Tucker wins the suit and is thereafter properly mentioned in the publicity, I trust it will at least suggest to him the rights of another gentleman — one, Mr. Frank L. Packard — who first wrote the story of "The Miracle Man," and whose name I fail to find printed, even in the-j smallest type used, in most of the advertising of this particular feature. If it had not been for Mr. Packard, neither "The Miracle Man" nor Mr. George Loane Tucker as its gifted director, would ever have been heard of, and I'm sure any man who will go to the Supreme Court in search of redress for his own wrongs is certain to be inspired with generosity toward the wrong he may have done others, even unwittingly. B)/ Photoplay Editors A MODERN SALOME— Hope-Hampton Productions, Inc. IT never would have happened if she hadn't had her portrait painted — as "Sa-^ lome." Leaving the projection room after viewing this picture my mind was in a daze — but I was sure of one thing : she shouldn't have had her portrait painted. Then Hope Hampton, who played the part of Salome, wouldn't have had to go through all she did ^ust what it is I don't quite collect; and she wouldn't have had to heave so painfully in the close-ups or perform that hula-hula before Herod. The title is justified in a very brief biblical allegory. A trade-paper, reviewing this production, the first of the Hope Hampton, Inc., releases, said: "The star . . who is as well known for her acting ability in handling the light and shade of difficult situations, as she is for her appearance . . ." As Miss Hampton has never made an appearance before, on stage or screen, this is interesting. She is a pretty woman with an extraordinary coiffure and poor taste in clothes. Manifestly an amateur, her willingness to work herself up to the climaxes— in which this picture abounds —is apparent. The story is one of the wildest you ever saw; if you like a lot of at i Every advertisement in PHOTOPLAY MAGAZINE is guaranteed.
