Little HINTS LAYGOERS KICK IN— Paramount OU would never imagine so many thrilling things could happen to one man until you see Bert Lytell in these action-crowded reels. Lytell is movicland's perfect crook and in Kick In he has a perfect crook role. Betty Compson is the district attorney's daughter whom the crook loves, and Ouida Bergere, who adapted the stage piece for her husband, Director George Fitsmaurice, preserved all the "kick" of the George Cohan anti-climaxes. This is a melodrama that will make you grip your neighbor's coat sleeve, because it is one of the month's best movies. THE HEADLESS HORSEMAN — Hodkinson flICHABOD CRANE steps straight from the pages of our old Fifth Reader onto the screen. Will Rogers, as Ichabod, is a homely, lovable character whose subtle humor and quaint pathos will not be appreciated by the flappers. The atmosphere of Sleepy Hollow and the little tozmi of Tarrytown lias been conveyed to the silver-sheet successfully—perhaps because the picture was filmed in the original setting in York State and the old tale has been done with a sympathetic touch that should be welcomed after a cycle of boudoir brochures and Roman revels. 36
