Keenan Brings Art of Stage to Screen; Modern Wife Must Bea Diplomat
By WALTER D. HICKMAN FRANK KEENAN is the reason why “Scars of Jealousy’’ is such a good picture. . And there are two other reasons— Lloyd Hughes and Marguerite de la Motte. It is the acting that counts in this picture. The story is just Wffjis: so so, but what marvelous life and strength these B >T* "t * players bring to •• •’ Jl this movie.

HalfKEENAN way efforts on the screen will not do these days as the movie fans expects and demands as careful and as intelligent characterization as theater patrons demand on the stage. Keenan is cast as a Southern Colonel who believes in the pride of family and as usual such fathers are “blessed" with worthless sons. Father on discovering that his son has turned his mansion Into a resort for burlesque actors, promptly, but In a gentlemanly way, escorted son and his trooping friends to the “door.” The Colonel goes to the hills of Alabama and selects a rough mountain lad (a son of mountain bootleggers) to take the place of his son. Then the drama begins. Keenan as the Colonel and Lloyd Hughes as the rough lad of the mountains and other numerous assistants make this movie seem reasonable by splendid acting. You probably will notice that the story is theatrical, but Keenan’s artistry puts the acting above the story. Keenan belongs to that school of actors which teaches one to act with his eyes and hands. Keenan actually “talks" with his eyes in “Scars of Jealousy.” Nearly forgot to ten you that you might suspicion by the way the movie starts that it is going to concern French history during the reign of one of the famous Louis, but this Is not the case as the scene suddenly shifts from the days of French kings to the State of Alabama in 1923. There is no doubt but that you are going to like “Scars of Jealousy,” because Keenan, Hughes and the others are in the cast. The Keenan movie is the featured offering at the Circle this week. The bill includes “Wonders of the Sea.” the regular music and a news movie showing the Dempsey-Gibbons fistic conversation, not the actual fighting, but scenes in and around Shelby. -I- -I- -!- Tom Mix Thrills Movie Fans at Rialto.

B." Jane Novak LLOYD in “Divorce" is HAMILTON cast as the wife who does not cry and wave her hands when her husband becomes dizzy, after making a success as a manager of a great steel plant. It happens that Jane’s father Is the president of the great industrial plant. So Jane tells her father to “fire" her husband. Some idea. Husband discovers that without his position of big salary that the vampire, who caused him to forget his home, wife and child, even forgets his telephone number. Husband discovers what a “fool” he- has been and, having no other place to hang his hat, hubby goes home to his clever little wife and admits what a boob he has been. Then everybody is happy. In movies dealing with the divorce evil, It Is the wife who “pays and pays.” It Is a relief to see a movie story dealing with this subject which does not make the wife a weak character. The modern wife realizes that it is her business to hold on to her husband if he begins to slip. Tears will not bring him back. Why not be diplomatic? Cause hubby to lose his job and then see how many meals
he will miss. It sounds like a bully good idea to me. Miss Novak has not given this movie a “film wife,” but a real flesh and blood Individual. Os course, she is not happy when she discovers that her husband is making “eyes" at a vampire. She just goes home and maps out a campaign which will make husband think of home and the family gas range. John Bowers plays the role of the husband .who discovers that his wife is more than just a wife, but a great diplomat. At the Apollo all week. •I- -l- -|- Here Is a Movie Made for the Very Warm Weather “The Man Next Door" is a warm weather movie. As such it is Interesting July movie diet.

Daughter falls In love with a chap who is supposed to be the gardener of thq wealthy family next door, but he really Is their son. Father has such "terrible” manpers that I wouldn’t trust him at a Sunday school picnic, but behind father's bad language and manners is a heart as pure as gold. He graduated from the university of hard knocks and not the modern dance floor. Just as “funny” as are the manners of AJice’s father is the haughty and foolish pride of the family next door. They are people who have more money than brains, a'l except the son. He would rather wear overalls than a dress suit. In contrasting the “bad manners”
of Alice’s father with the foolish social customs of the rich society people, the movie fan experiences some appropriate laughs during the hot weather. One can see this movie, laugh and yet not have a serious thought. It is a good hot weather formula. “The Man Next Door” Is the feature at the Ohio this week. The bill includes Round 12 of “Fighting Blood" and the regular musical program. -I- -1- -!- Man May Look Like a “Boob” and Not Be One Hoot Gibson has a "boob” part in “Double Dealings,” which is playing the first half of this week at the Isis. Gibson is a boob who turns the tables on the men who think that he can be fooled Into anything. He seems to have much the worst of It during the first part of the picture, but redeems himself when his enemies begin quarreling among themselves. * The ecenes are laid in a little country town and Gibson appears as the owner of a mortgage smothered drug store. When the mortgages are foreclosed he is without a job and has only his grandmother’s money with which to start business again. A crook gains his confidence, and the action starts forthwith. GladyaLWalton, in "Gossip,” will be the feature for the latter part of the week.—(By Observer.) Car Reported Stripped An automobile owned by Earl Kiger, 113 S.
