HTHE way of a man with a girl—and of a girl with a man—has been shown us innumerable times on the screen from the very first days of the old silent pictures, yet there are some teams whom we remember before we recall the name of the film in which they appeared—possibly there is a single un- forgettable scene which lingers in the mind. As far back as I can remember, Mary Pickford was a favourite of mine, yet I can remember few love scenes except those in her last film, Secrets. Although she won an Academy Award in 1930 for her work in Coquette, I can remember little of the film— far less than her charming sequences with Leslie Howard in Secrets. Leslie Howard had the ability somehow" to bring out the best and sincerest in his feminine co-players, as he brought out Norma Shearer’s in Smilin' Through, the first film in which she played a dual role. Do you remember them starring in A Free Soul and Romeo and Juliet as well ? Those who remember Rudolph Valentino will never forget the film which brought him to their notice— The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Although he had appeared in several films before this he had not made so great a hit and after that he never looked back. From 1922 until he died in 1926 he made a reputation that will not die. Playing opposite Valentino in The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse was Alice Terry, one of the first favourites of the early screen days. One of the most delicately charming of all film love pairs was that of Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell and the film in Right: Charles Far- rell and Janet Gaynor in "Seventh Heaven." Extreme right : John Gilbert and Greta Garbo in " Queen Christina."
