Pz Mic Nearly Wrecks a Kingdom; Only £*Rib but What a Wonderful Rib

So she goes back to her kingdom, r.hakes \her shoulders before her cabinet members and the whole country is happy. “Jazzmania” will not be remembered for the story unfolded, but will be regarded as a good example of how a clever movie director can "dress up” a story, causing his work to become the feature of the photo play.

I was introduced to the last word in bathrooms. Remember ELLIOTT “Male and FeDEXTER male?” Os course you do. In "Adam’s Rib" you will get acquainted with the latest thing in smart dance affairs. De Mille calls his latest fad, the 1 "Dance of the Hearts" and believe me lit is the last word in ballroom affairs. Vhere will he many a hostess who will 6ry to reproduce a "heart” dance. Here De Mille is most extravagant. A woman who sat next to me, continually gasped over the stunning gowns exhibited. In the "Heart Dance,” a maiden fair takes a bow and arrow an<i shoots at a paper heart on the dresfe suit coat of the man she likes. W'hile they dance, the women carry pretty toy lanterns. The tnen carry Japanese parasols. Lights go out, the lanterns are self illuminated. What a pretty picture. Confetti falls over the dancers. The men raise their parasols. If this isn’t the last word in dance effects I do not know what is. And What A Cast De Milk* Has Used Take a look at this cast: Pauline Garon, A ana Q. Nilsson, Milton Sills, Theodore Kosloff and and Elliott Dexter. In the modern rib episodes of the story. Miss Garon is the very flnpperish daughter of Anna Q. Nilsson. Pauline is in love with Elliott Dexter who is cast as a learned anthropologist. Pauline sacrifices her name and chance for happiness to shelter the crood name of her own mother. Mother, it seems, likes the brand ii-f kisses handed out by Kosloff instead of those given by Sills, who is cast as Anna’s wealthy modern husband. in the "historical” flashbacks, Anna is a woman who must have lived pretty near the time when Adam ate the apple. It. must have been early in history as the Vow and arrow were just being invented. In this forest of centuries ago. Garon. Dexter. Nilsson, Kosloff and Bills enact a drama concerning man’s jealousy and woman’s unfaithfulness. You are going to hear a lot of talk I about this new De Mille movie.
