George Megan’s Production “Ebb:
Tide” from Stevenson Novel Is
Real Screen Thriller. .
A. desperate fight with an octopus,
a breath- -taklng storm at sea. scenes
of pearl divers at work and overlay-

actors of Robert Louis Stevenson and
Lloyd Osbourne—such are the high
lights of “Ebb Tide," 9. new George
Melford Paramount picture. which
comes to the Regent Theatre today.
tomorrow. matinee only and Riday.
The finely drawn characters which
are so truly Stevensonian divide in-
terest so equally in the story that Mr.“
Melford, instead of featuring any one
or two players, has assembled a
notable cast all of whom are of
“star" or near-star rank in their own
right. The women are Lila Lee and
Jacqueline Logan.“ The men include
James Klrkwood, Raymond Hatton.
George Fawcett and Noah Beery.
All are members of the recently or-
ganized Paramount Stock Company
players.
As in the case of "Burning Sands,"
beautiful exterior scenes are the most
important feature of “Ebb Tide." A
Pacific island was chosen for the 10-
cale and transformed into a tropical
isle. Mr. Meltord. with s. large

as-

rnent, s. fleet of power boats and
schooners and a large force of play-
ers and technical help, encamped for
a whole month at this location.

 

A BLIND BARGAIN.-

sents Chaney and Jacqueline

Everyone knows Lon Chaney. From
the day that he was put into the
role of the crook cripple in "The
Miracle Man" he has been one of the
most popular actors of the screen and
not only that, but he has been. one of
the most capable.‘ Chaney is selected
for parts that few stars could play
and he masters everyone of them. In
“A Blind Bargain." the Goldwyn su~

at the Palace Theatre during the last

Chaney plays a dual role and Nor-
walk theatregoers who see this play
will marvel at his work. In the bril-

liant supporting cast, the play goer
will find Jacqueline Logan, the
charming and beautiful star who

played with Milton Sills in ”Burning
Sands." This combination could not
be bettcred. There are other cast
members of high standing and the

to be one of the hits of the year.
Judged by the reception that it has
received elsewhere. the producer's
aims have been reached.

A baseball writer might chalk down
this interview as a double play—Stan-
islavsky to 'Kosloft to The Sentinel.
Kosloft, one of the foremost char-

acter actors of the screen, is in New
York on a. vacation. Stanislavsky is
here with the Moscow Art Theater. of
which he is the director. He is con-
sidered by many to be the greatest
living master of stagecrat't.
Stanislavsky and Kosloff saw the
film version of “OtheTlo” together.
'Here is what Stanislavsky said to
Koslol‘f:
"It's good acting, but” what's it all
about. Here is'Othello, alone in the
picture. You begin to see what is go-
ing on in his mindland then a street

about? Before you can learn that,
another view of Othello is given, this
time at close range.

faces again. Just one player before
you, thean a flash two of them.
There is no sustained effect of- action
or story. That is the trouble with. the
movies. Potentially the screen may
be an art. but as it exists today it is
not an art.” .

deloi! said he agreed with Stanis—
lovsky. “The motion picture is very
young." he said. “It has no tradition
in the arts. It is very much like
America. young and beautiful. but not
developed. The screen has its own
destiny. but just now it is standing
still. It isn t pushing on to the place
which rightfuly belong to it.

"The motion picture embraces all
of the arts, painting. drama. music
and literature. VVc' ve had leaders in
all those arts try their hand at picture
direction. Many of them have turned

it is hopeless as an art. The trouble
is that painters have .tried to make
the motion picture express itself in
terms of palette and brush and writers
have tried to tell picture stories in
terms of, the pen. The fault lies with
those who have been unwiling .to
change their own ideas or to adapt
the special technique required by mo-
tion pictures."

If you were to see Kosloff of! the
screen you’d know him immediately
upon meeting'him. He's always “in
character." There seems to be just
one side to him. the serious side. He
takes himself seriously. He takes his
Work seriously. It's a. Russian :10le-
nity. I suppose. is

It is probably because oi! this seri-
ous attitude toward his work that has
soured a little on the movies. He says
he doesn't care to act in the movies as
much as he used to.

"Most of the time we work in the
dark," he says. “Few directors ever
let the. players- know what the story
of the play is. Maybe the star has
read the script, but usually no one
else in the cast knows what or why he
is acting.

“We make up and wait around un-
til we are called. The director gets us
before the camera and maybe he says.

SHARON. PA.
MY DEAR MR. HAMILTON:

By the time you receive this letter,
Leslie will have probably told" you
that I have asked her to be‘ my ~wife.

As you know nothing of. me. however
. I thought it Would be nothing less'
than honorable to tell you s. little
about the man to whom you are be-
ing asked to give your daughter.

As you probably have guessed from
my name. John Alden Prescott. my
forebealrs were of Puritan stock. My
father is dead and my mother has
enough to keep her‘comtortably with-
out any help from me.

My mother is especially proud of
being a direct descendant of John
Alden. but that of course means
nothing to rue: in fact. I have felt
that all my life I have been some-
what circumscribed and confined be-
cause my mother expected me to live
up to the more or less narrow pre-
. septa of my ancestors.

I haven't done it.- I am just a
modern young man Who has gone
through college with more or less
escapades and honors—perhaps more

moped” and less honors. How-
‘ ever. I have not done anything that I
' am sure even you would consider un-

donshle. .

The most ’distinctive novelty of this
season—of a good many seasons. in
fact—is the colorful Deauvllle scarf.

Deauvllie, .as you doubtless know.
is the great French summer resort——
one of the gayest, one of the most ex-
pensive, one of the most fashionable
in Europe. '

It was at Dcauville, you may re-
member, that King Alfonso of Spain
spent a lot of time last season dancing
with any number of pretty girls. giv-
ing- an expensive brooch to each of
those he favored thus—making him-_
self so popular ,indeed. that this year
his advisers said they'd rather' he
stay at home—his cutting around had
attracted a little too much attention.

Anyway, the Dcauville scarf first

appeared at this famed resort—brig-

.But it'was too much of a success to

be limited, in its activities, to any
time, place or style of frock. and to-
day it's featured in {connection with
evening gowns. afternoon attire. house
dresses and even kimonos.
‘ It's added pop and dash to the dull

deadly monotony of the colinrless

Naturally there are bound to be
variations, so it isn't surprising to

find ribbon being use-d dccoraiivcly in
a manner which the scarf plainly in-
spired.
