Film of Drama‘ of
Home Life Is Played
by Cast of Merit —-
Led by Hope Rich

Dinering' from the stereotyped
class of motion' pictures. “Pal 0'
Mine.” directed by the well-known
Edward J. Le Salt; shows class and
merit from first to last, and is one
or the best films seen here for a, long
time. It was very enthusilistically
received by an appreciative audience
last. night at the Palace Theatre.
It’is complete in every partlcuiar.
and the producers not only gave it
sumptuous mounting. but selected
a cast that acquitted itself with hon-
or.

Headed by Irene Rich, the cast
included Pauline Garon. Willard
Louis. Jose: Swickard. Jean De
Brice and A1 Roscoe. Comment is
quite unnecessary except to say that
each player was admirably suited to
his part.

There are many big and tense mo-
ments~ln the film, and the director
showed his master hand in the ban-
dling at it. "Pal 0' Mine" was writ-
ten by Edith Kennedy. The unique
situations in this drama. of home
life and the theatrical World con-
ceived by Miss Kennedy have been
very well worked out. and the tan-
gled mirs of the young wife and
her husband are finally straightened
out in the end when danger over-
takes the wife (Miss Rich) and caus-
es her husband to see the'llght (A1
Roscoe).

The picture is veritably crammed
with interest and action.
