_ In "The Guilty Man." which is now
being presented at. the Regent Then-

It remained for Irvin V. Willat. di-
rector of "The Guiltv Man.“ under

to take his studio carpenters in hand
and go about it seriously. Any French
deputy would feel as much at home in
this French courtroom on though a:

the real thing in court room and as
substantial and solid as the Sphinxce.
All of which is interesting. but aside
from the main point which in this
case is that Florin Hope, Vivian Reed.

have made of “The Guilty Man" one
of the most realistic and thrilling of
modern pliotoplays.

when a rich man lchs nobody and no

in the world. This is the. theme that
is splendidly illustrated in Marguerite
