A LL the screen world is expectantly awaiting Erich Von Stroheim's forthcoming film .."•The .Wedding March". Von always over shoots and cuts. The picture is now assembled in fortyfour reels. It may possibly be released as two pictures or he may get it down to twelve reels for one release. Anyhow we know it will be a great picture.
H' I 'HE BIG PARADE" is the most successful picture ever made and many warfilms have come to the screen in consequence. "What Price Glory", the play, began the war craze and in screen form is carrying on. "Wings" is the latest "epic" of the A.E.F. and perhaps the last big war picture, although Barthelmess in "The Patent Leather Kid" has a war story.
PVERYONE is looking forward to two great love pictures — "Love" with Greta Garbo and John Gilbert and "The Magic Flame" with Vilma Banky and Ronald Colman.
A/IARY PICKFORD is busy with "My Best Girl" and that's good news. Douglas Fairbanks is well along on "The Gaucho" . Charlie Chaplin is not yet able to finish "The Circus" but he will one day and again take his place as our greatest comedian.
TT'S the young ones who particularly attract our attention and of all the young men Richard Arlen and Charles Farrell are outstanding. Arlen in "Rolled Stockings'" and in "The Blood Ship" was on Broadway in The Paramount Theatre and The Roxy Theatre at the same time, which is the first time any leading man has done that. Farrell's work in "Seventh Heaven" is still being seen by housefulls. His next is "Bride of the T^ight".
CPEAKING of "Rolled Stockings" which was a college picture recalls the flood of college sports pictures of last year. Red Grange, in "One Minute to Play", William Haines in "Brown of Harvard", Richard Dix in "The Qudrterbac\" . They were all good. This year Dick Barthelmess and a lot of real college boys are making "The Drop Kic\" . William Haines has made "Spring Fever". He was a Marine in "Tell It to the Marines" and is at * work on a picture about West Point. Also William Boyd is working at West Point on "The West Pointer". He has just made "Two Arabian Knights" — a doughboy picture.
/"\NE bit of news that will please everybody is that Phyllis ^""^ Haver has been featured in "Chicago" . Her work in "The I** Way of All Flesh" with Tannings is great. You can't speak of the movies without mentioning Tannings. He is making "Hitting For Heaven". The Rialto Theatre with "The Way of All Flesh", the Strand with "Tartuffe" and the Cameo with "Passion" are helping New Yorkers to see Jannings.
TTHERE is great interest in Dolores Del Rio although only "What Price Glory" and "Resurrection" have been shown. "Carmen", "Trail of '98" and "Ramona" are coming.
/~\F all the girls showing promise, making good and carrying on, little Janet Gaynor right now is at the top of the heap. "Seventh Heaven" is simply delightful. Her next is "Two Girls Wanted".
