With “The Iron Horse” opening at the Colonial Sundav afternoon and Douglas Fairbanks getting under way at the Circle in “Don Q,” this city is sure of a great movie week nexi week.

Harold Lloyd starts his third week of his engagement in “The Freshman” at the Apollo.

For the first half of the week the Isis will offer Buck Jones in ‘Durand of the Bad Lands.” The Crystal for the week will present a war movie, ‘‘lndiana Under Fire,” for the week. •!• -I- T FAIRBANKS’ LATEST TO OPEN AT CIRCLE The Circle's attraction beginning Sunday will be Douglas Fairbanks in ‘‘Don Q, Son of Zorro,” an adaptation of the romantic story. ‘‘Don Q-’s Love Story.” by Iv. and Hesketh Pritchard. This new story has no relationship to the Cervante tale, “Don Quixote,” but presents the star in the role of a young California Spaniard, Don Q., who is sent by his father to Spain to complete his education. Quite by accident he wins favor at the Spanish court, only to be plunged into disgrace D >ugh an accusation of murder. To escape possible death he pretends suicide and becomes an outlaw, his only weapon being a Spanish bull-whip, a long, sinuous lash which is quite terrible in its execution in the hands of a skilled person. An interesting touch in the new production is the introduction of the elder Zorro who was the leading character in ‘‘The Mark of Zorro.” There is a scene showing the climax of ‘‘The Mark of Zorro” picture, showing Zorro hurling his sword into the wall, with the injunction to stay there until it was needed. Thirty years later, learning of his son's plight in Spain, he takes this sword and goes to Don Q.’s assistance, vanquishing his enemies and freeing Don of the murder charge. Fairbanks is seen in both roles and Mary Astor is seen as the young

And, as is always true with genuine humor, there are times when something very near akin to pathos creeps in and takes the spectator unawares.
