NEWS OF THE DAY IS ~ MONTE BLUE FILM .s the Atlantic’ Is Different Kind of Picture for Former Indianapolis Boy; Edna Murphy Does Nice Work. Sometimes a picture is based on a news fact. There is a basis of fact for nearly everything, but to take four distinct new features that were spread over a period of ten years or more and make a picture of it is unusual. “Across the Atlantic” has taken four events and made a very fair air spectacle out of them. First is the flying of the old Wright model airplane, the kind where the pilot sat out in front of everything. Next is the fact that the United Staes entered into the World War and the subsequent using of the air force.

Thirdly the fact that a man came into prominence by the fact that al-

though he was a soldier he could remember nothing of his life prior to his disablement, and there was no identification marks on him. The fourth fact that was used was that of Colonel Lindbergh making his lone flight to France, hardly known until his start. Each of these

terial for a good picture. Fact number two seems to have been used a number of times. Fact number three has come into play in the picture field a number of times, but the four together have woven toI gether splendidly. Monte Blue is the young Hugh Clayton, vice president of the Clayton Manufacturing Company and also an ardent flier, in the early days. When war is declared he enlists in the air service and marries his secretary, Phillis Miller, played by Edna Murphy. He is shot down and reported dead. Daniel Clayton Hugh’s brother wants to marry Phillis, but she insists he wait. Asa monument John Clayton builds an airplane factory as a monument to his son. The son is released from an Army hospital and finally gets work at his father’s company. His memory is restored and he steals the trans-Atlantic plane that is to start when Phillis’ marriage is announced to Daniel. Blue has little real acting, as many of the scenes show him in the cockpit of a plane. Edna Murphy is the actor of the company. She has several scenes that are emotional and does them nicely. The part of the father, John Clayton, is taken by Burr Mclntosh and he handles the part splendidly. Robert Ober plays Daniel Clayton. The picture has parts that are strangely reminiscent of news reels showing the flight of Col. Charles Lindbergh. However it is worked in so nicely that the effect is not spoiled, but enhanced by the effect. This is a picture that evidently is intended as a furtherance of aviation. At the Ohio today and tomorrow. (By the Observer.) Other theaters today offer: “Glorious Betsy” at the Apollo; “Triumphant Bachelor” at English’s; “The Dover Road” at Keith’s;

MANY are on the trail of the $lO per day that The Indianapolis Times is paying to those who can identify the film play from which the daily picture of Lillian Gish is taken. From the stack of letters that are being received, there are a lot of people who can use the extra ten spot. And even if they do not win the capital award, they are pretty sure to be in line for a pair of tickets to the Palace Theatre to see Lillian Gish in her latest picture, “The Enemy,” which starts Saturday. That’s what it is worth to you if you can name the film play from which the picture shown here is taken. Os course, just naming the title of the film is not all. But the only other thing you have to do is to add a short phrase or title of slogan that in your opinion aptly describes Lillian Gish in that particular role. Such as “the queen of tragic art,” the “aristocrat of the screen”—or something better than that. The Times movie critic will select the best slogan. And just to give you a lead we will add this to help you. The screen play from which this picture is taken is one made from a nouel of George Eliot’s. It is laid in period of the sixteenth century and deals with a period in Italian history. It was a most spectacular picture and played here about two years ago. It’s a name that ‘four out of five’ mispronounce. That ought to help you a lot. Tease the old brain into action. Make up a clever phrase to describe Miss Gish in the role and if it does not take you over ten minutes, you may earn a dollar a minute for your time. Not bad. Clip out the picture—or at any rate refer to this one when writing your letter, and address it to the Motion Picture Editor of the “Times.” You must have in in The Times office not later than Saturday morning, June 23. Don Barclay at the Lyric; “West Point” at the Palace; “The Skyscraper” at the Indiana; “Hawk's Nest” at the Circle, and movies at the Fountain Square. MOTION PICTURES
