Lon Chaney Makes Big Hit in “Hunchback”
By JACK JUNGMEYER | OLLYWOOD. Sept. s.—UniyerllJ j sal’s spectaculab rendition of In “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” promises to be more of a triumph for Lon Chaney in the title role than for the producing company. It proved a little too heroic a canvas for the directorial brush of Wallace Worsley, although in the main the underlying composition is good. To keep huge masses of people, streets, buildings, panorama, spectacle and sharp Individual action knit in an impressive dramatic pattern, as was sincerely essayed in "Notre Dame,” Is probably a task for genius. The picture is said to have cost over $1,000,000. Its accoutrement of prop and costume .dominated by the huge replica of the cathedral, sets anew mark In lavishness. But Its very size has produced distraction. And so, to keep from being mazed, where the drama thins out from time to time, one does in viewing the picture what Worsley did in making it—concentrate on Chaney at the expense of the play as a whole. • • * Os the many contorted men he’s played, the hunchback bell-ringer of Notre Dame is by far the most classically crooked and conspicuous. "Qifasjmodo” has long been Chaney's coveted role, and his artistic delight in translating Hugo’s monster to the screen is obvious in every scene. Guided by the novelist’s minutely detailed description of the hideous tenant of the Paris cathedral, Chaney evolved an elaborate make-up requiring several hours to apply and

unlike anything the screen has hitherto seen. The hairy, deformed torso is contrived with a metallic shell weighing sixty pounds. Practically every vestige of Chaney's features is obliterated, except the mobile mouth. He has thus compelled himself to render an exacting characterization of a celebrated fiction figure almost wholly by means of bodily twist and gesture, with hardly any facial help. Readiness to attempt that, and the success achieved, hints at his profound study of pantomime. * • • The middle ages, says Hugo, believed "Quasimodo” to be Its demon; he was, in fact, its soul. It Is upon that author's keynote that Chaney built his interpretation of the "Hunchback” —fantastic chimera of the bell towers, creeping ape-like about the sculptured gargoyles, feared by those who didn’t revile him, half man—half devil, savior of the girj he gave sanctuary in the church and nemesis of the mephitic priest who threatened her. Three or four of conceptions will sear into your memory: His agony on the whipping wheel; his slide down a rope on the cathedral front to save "Esmeralda" from the gibbet; his single-handed combat with the “Truands” assaulting Notre Dame, hurling upon them molten lead from the- cathedral roof; his mortal combat with the brother of "Dorn Claude,” upon whom. In the picture, all the vileness of his clerical brother is shouldered. • • • Patsy Ruth Miller seems emotion-

ally too frugal to catch the flashing, volatile, seductive, but adamant gipsy girl whose Influence sparked most of Hugo’s bitter tragedy. Norman Kerry, so excellent in “Merry Go Round,” falls to make an Impression In “Notre Dame” as the lover. Ernest Torrence plays the king of the beggars convincingly, and Nigel de Brullier makes the most of “Dom Claude,” the priest’s role having been made completely Innocuous and almost lifeless under concession to religious censorship. A number of changes have been made in the Hugo story; some for better, some for worse. The influence of Notre Dame upon Paris — the queen of French cathedrals, beside each wrinkle a scar—has been quite definitely suggested. The picture has no comedy relief. It is somber. But it Is worth seeing as an honest effort to do something stupendous. -I- -I- -I* On View in Indianapolis Theaters Wedneday The attractions on view include: "The Dancing Girl” at the Murat; Ezra Buzzington’s Rube Band at the Lyric; Mignonett Kokin and Company at the Palace; musical revue and movies at the Rialto; Lena Daley and her show at the Capitol; “Hollywood” at the Circle; “The Famous Mrs. Fair” at the Ohio; “Broadway Gold” at the Apollo; “Salome’ at the Rialto; "Penrod and Sam” at Mister Smith’s and "Out of Luck” at the Isis.
