Bryant Washburn and Lois Wilson in a delightful comedy of errors in which a young husband is the victim of an extraordinary series of misunderstandings. Good comedy entertainment. A Gentleman in Mufti (Gaumont; Mar. 10). An Australian production about a father's sacrifices to bring his daughter up as a lady. Played by the Sentimental Bloke cast, which includes Arthur Tauchert, Lottie Lyell, Beryl Low, Lotus Thompson, Cecil B. Scott, Dorothy Daye, Jack Raymond and Rene Sandeman. Simple, but sincere. The Ghost Breaker (Paramount; Mar. 27). An average movie in which hidden treasure, a haunted castle, a black valet, and many changes of scenery are well mixed up. Wallace Reid starred, with Lila Lee, Walter Hiers, Frances Raymond, Charles Ogle, Snitz Edwards and Joe Ray support. Gipsy Blood (Pioneer; Mar. 20). " Carmen " through German spectacles. Worth seeing because of an excellent character study of certain type of woman by Pola Negri, and some good settings and direction by Lubitsch. This movie has been very much cut, and was made some years ago. Glimpses of the Moon; (Paramount; Mar. 17). Adapted from Edith Wharton's novel, in which the interest centres around three women and a pair of very anaemic and unreal husbands. Beautifully produced and well played by Bebe Daniels, Nita Naldi, Rubye de Reymer, David Powell, Maurice Costello, Charles Gerard, and Charles Kent. Good society entertainment. Good Men and True (Wardour; Mar. 31). Harry Carey in a very good melodrama about a cowboy candidate for political honours in a western town. Supporting Carey are Tully Marshall, Vola Vale, Noah Beery, and Thomas Jefferson. Excellent melodrama. Grumpy (Paramount ; Mar. 10). One of the month's best character studies. Theodore Roberts as a crotchety old chap who solves a murder mystery by means of a gardenia. May McAvoy opposite, also Conrad Nagel, Carson Ferguson, Charles Ogle, and Bertram Johns. Good entertainment. The Impossible Miss Bellew (Paramount; Mar. 24). An excellent Gloria Swanson movie, with the star at her best as a modern young mother whom circumstances have robbed of her good name. The cast includes Conrad Nagel, Robert Cain. Gertrude Astor, June Elvidge, Herbert Standing, Mickey and Pat Moore, Clarence Burton and Frank Elliott. Good society drama. Judgment of the Storm (B. E. P.; Mar. 20). A melodramatic story of a man's love for a girl and his mother, with some fine snow settings and a realistic storm thrill. Lloyd Hughes, Lucille Rickson, George Hackathorn, Claire McDowell and Myrtle Steadman head a capable cast. Good entertainment. Lightning Love (Vitagraph; Mar. 3). Larry Scmon, Al Thompson. Oliver Hardy and Rhea Durand in a rural comedy written ami directed by the star. Love is an Awful Thing (P. B. O.; Mar 10). Clever farce concerning a bachelor with a past which nearly proves his undoing. Owen Moore stars, and Kathryn Perry and Marjorie Daw head an adequate cast Light farcical fare. Love in the Welsh Hills (Regent; Mar 20). Strong drama of Welsh life photographed in Wales and around Harwich and Yarmouth. Cast includes James Knight, Marjorie Villis, Constance Worth, Ray Raymond, and Heaton Grey. Fair entertainment. The Madness of Youth (Fox; Mar. 3). John Gilbert as a crook who is reformed by a wealthy man's daughter. Very nicely produced and well played by the star, Billie Dove, George K. Arthur, Wilton Taylor, Julanne Johnson, Ruth Boyd, D. R. O. Halswell. Good mystery drama." Montmartre (F. B. O.; Mar. 24). Pola Negri's last German production directed by Lubitsch. A somewhat hectic story of old Paris. Excellent character drawing and good work by the rest of the unnamed cast. Mothers-in-Law (Walturdazc; Mar. 31). A Gasnier production with a motherlove story treated from a novel angle. Beautifully staged and produced. Cast includes Ruth Clifford, Gaston Glass, Vola Vale, Crawford Kent, Josef Swickard, Edith Yorke and Doris Stone. Excellent entertainment Notoriety (Western-Import; Mar. 1). Mary Alden, Maureen Powers, Rod La Roque, George Hackathorne, J. Barney Sherry, Mona Lisa, and Richard Travers in a fantastic and unconsciously funny melodrama about a girl who wished to be famous at any price. Unbelievable and for the unsophisticated only. On the Banks of the Wabash {Vitagraph; Mar. 21). Another fine cast wasted on an artificial story written round a popular old song. Efficient direction and good acting by Mary Carr, Mary Maclaren, Madge Evans, James Morrison, Lumsben Hare, Edward Roseman, Charles Blacton, and Dick and Harry Lee; also some spectacular fire and flood scenes. Fair entertainment. Out of Luck (European; Mar. 24). Hoot Gibson as a comedian on board a U.S.A. dreadnought, in an excellent comedy-drama about a supposed murderer's forced term of service in the Navy. Laura La Plante opposite, also Howard Truesdell, De Witt Jennings, Jay Morley, and John Judd. P«nrod and Sam (Ass. First National; Mar. 24). An excellent sequel to Penrod, with Ben Alexander a great little hero, supported by Buddy Messenger, Joe Butterworth, Gertrude Messenger, Gene Jackson, Joe McCray, Rockcliffe Fellowes, Gladys Brockwell, Gareth Hughes, Mary Philbin, Wm, V. Mong, Bobby Sodon and " Cameo " the dog. Excellent fare for young folks of all ages. Putting It Over (Unity; Mar. 31). Cyclonic electioneering drama with Richard Talmadge proving himself Doug Fairbank's legitimate successor. Thomas Ricketts, Doris Pawn and William Home support. Thrill-a-minute drama. Very good of its type.
