Vol. 19, No. 3 Universal Weekly For the Screen!” said that her work in “Fools Highway” was so good that it was “almost too good for the screen. Nothing is “too good for the screen.” Anything that is good enough for the stage is none too good for the screen. In fact, Pve seen many a bit of directing, or stage setting, or acting on the stage that would not get by on the screen. But to get back to Miss Philbin and “Fools Highway.” In this picture you see this charming new star in the Bowery, not the Bowery of today, but the Bowery of about 30 years ago when that old location gained the fame that will cling to it forever. I won’t attempt to describe the type of part she plays. I won’t attempt to describe with words a thing which must be seen before its charm and sweetness can be appreciated. But if you realize how much it means to you to give your patrons a story which they can live, a story which makes them take the heroine right into their hearts, arrange to show them the “Merry Go Round” girl in “Fools Highway.”
