Jean Menjou surely belongs to" the
latter class. '
Do you remember him in Douglas
Fairbanks’ Jolly version ‘0! "The
Three Musketeers?" That is when
he first began to attract attention in
movieland. Then thorowere "Thee
Sheik," "The Eternal Flame? and
“Rupert or Hentzau." It: remsined
for Charles Chaplin to show-..the
real ability of Menjou ,when he cost
him to play opposite ‘Edna Purviance
in the memorable "A Woman of
Paris." Now Adolphe is a. star in
his ovm right. backed by Paramount.
One of the things they’re going to
present him in soon is a film version
or Paul Morand's Frenchy "Open All
Night."
Five years or experience in stock
companies and vaudeville were be-
hind him when be cast his lot with
the movies. Before that he was oc—
cupied in getting an education. at
Culver Military Academy and Cor-
nell University, he says.
Since “A Woman of Paris" he has
been very much in demand. In "The
Marriage Clrclc," directed by the
German director. Lubitsch. he again
scored. “Broadway After Dark"
and “The Marriage Cheat" and “For
Sale" in which he plays opposite
Claire \Yindsor. are his latest.
Mcnjnu's acting is of the subtle
type. I do believe he can express
more by the turn or his head and
eyes and above all. by his smile, than
many actors can by contorting their
wholc bodies.
