Movna NOTES
A‘!‘ m REGENT.
Mary Carr Excellent in role‘ of
Mother in “The Parasite."
No one over thinks of a mother
on the screen without giving Mary
Carr the first thought. It is true the
screen has had others playing moth-
er roles. but none have ever done to
the roles what Mary Carr has. She
has become “the mother of the
films" since her inspired interpre-
tation of the mother part in "Over
the Hill." Critics who have seen
the B. P. lchuiberg production.
"The Parasite." where she plays
the patient mother, have been loud
in their praises of her work in this
production. Some have even gone
so far as to intimate that her per-
formance of the sacrificing mother
in “The Parasite." at the Regent
Theatre. is even mellower than her
playing of the role 'in the picture
that established her as a star.
One of the things about Mary
Carr. is that she is actually a. mar-
velous mother off the screen. too.
She lives in New York. when she
is not in Hollywood. playing in plctt
tures. and devotes her time in rear-
ing a family of her own that in-
cludes six sturdy young Carrs. all of
whom have been in pictures.
"The Parasite" will be shown at
the Regent for the last times today.
AT THE RIALTO.
Marion Defies in “lender the
first." opens tomorrow (or three
day run.
Norma Shearer and Low Cody in
"A Slave of Fashion," will close'
their engagement at the Rialto with
tonight's presentation. It is a photo-
play that you will enjoy.
Marlon Davies in "Zander The
Great," will begin a three day en.
gegement at the Rialto theatre be.
ginning tomorrow. You loved her
in “Little Old New York." you'll
adore her in this charming comedy
of an orphan girl and her adopted
child and the adventures they meet
in a man's world. Marion Davies in
this picture is in the greatest role
of her career. It's humin. it's grip-
ping. it's funny. ‘
It has a great cast: Holbrook
Blinn. Harrison Ford. Harry Meyers.
Hobart Bosworth. Emily Fitzroy.
Hedda Hopper. George Seigmann.
Harry Watson. Jr.. Olin Rowland.
Master John Hut! and Richard
Carlo.
AT THE PALACE.
Anita Stewart. lead in “Tim loam
'i got etsrt by kiss.
A kiss took her out of the extra
class! Such was the experience of.
Anita Stewart. who will be seen to-
day and tomorrow in the leading
role of B. P. Schulberg's produc-
tion. "The Boomerang." at the Pal-
ace Theatre.
“One day." says Miss Stewart.
"the director chose one of the girls
to kiss the leading man. You see
the script called for it. He tried
one and the poor girl was so ner-
vous she Just couldn‘t. Next he
beckoned to me. and although I was
scared speechless. I complied.
"I don't even remember the ac-
tor's name now. but I do know that
he was the idol of our gang.‘ My
kissing evidently satisfied the direc~
tor. because from that time on I
was given small parts. Nice parts.
too. and they kept getting larger
until I was at last. chosen for a lead.
ing role. If I ever again meet that
leading man. I shall insist upon
kiuing him for paving the way to
stardom for me."
In "The Bdomereng." Miss Stew-
art has one of the moat exactinl but
interesting roles of her career.
Adapted from the David Belasoo
stage success which enjoyed phe.
nomenai popularity. "The Boomer-
ang" tells about a young bachelor
who believes himself the world's
greatest. love expert. He opens a
senitarium for the love-lam and
hires a beautiful nurse as an s-ist-
ant.
