By Eliot Keen Word comes from the West Coast that Jannings has surpassed himself in "The Way of All Flesh". If he has, all we can say is that he makes a new record in altitude. In our opinion, Emil Jannings in "The Last Laugh" and "Variety" gave the best performances to date. He was so wonderful that anyone could feel with him. He was as intelligible as a real experience in life. Our editorial enthusiasm is aroused over the thought of this man's bravery. In far off Germany, surrounded by his friends, he won his pedestal in the film world. He was offered work here in a strange place and among strange people. His problem was whether or not he should come to the greatest of cinema cities. He came and did the best wor\ he has ever done. When you have done your best work on the home team and are enjoying the fruits of your good work among friends, the opportunity may come for you to go to the big league, the home office, or wherever the money calls. Perhaps you will be afraid to try it. This is to tell you that luck is on the side of the venturesome. When your time comes in the new surroundings you will find yourself letting out a couple of unexpected notches and doing better than you ever did, or than you ever thought you could do. Conquerors can't stick around the house. 16
