B. O. release, entitlel “If Marriage Fails,” which will be shown at the Coliseum Theatre tonight * wheré it begins a two day run.. The screen’s best known author has turned out a whale of a_ story, reeking with color, un- usual incident and treatment of high order.. Mr. Sullivan suc- ceeds In’ putting very human characters on the screen, and Aat the same time they are not the stock “hero and shero” types. John Ince has directed the pic- ture brilliantly and with fine un- derstanding ‘of the intensely dra- matic and modern story involved. Jacqueling Logan, Belle Bennett, Clivée Brook, Donald MacDonaid and Jean Hersholt are prominent in the all star cast. One of the most elaborate and unusual scengs ever taken for a picture is that depicting the “Venecia” cafe where the guests enter in gondola and the dance hall is surrounded by the still waters of a typicai Venetian canal.

There is the added factor of a notable cast which number amongst its personnel such po: lar and capable players as Jack Holt, Florence Vidor, George Ban- croft and William Powell. Mr. Dwan is said to have incor- porated in the production several spectacular features, which set a new high-water mark for realism and thril. Among these is cited a stirring fist fight, an exciting | battle iw which several hundre:l natives take part, a raging sea storm, and a cyclonic tropical tor- nado. The story centers about a lovely and charming English girl, whe, with her little daughter, sets sail on an ocean freighter which is headed for an out-of-the-way port on the East African coast. | ‘1 'BIG PRODUCTION IS COMING TO PALACE | p “"King Vidor-John Gilbert. This, thg greatest director-star combi- nalion the screen has ever known, already responsible for “The Big Parade” and “La Boheme,” reprs- sents the talent, artistry, and abil- ity of “Bardelys the Magnificent," the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture coming to the Palace Theatre on| Thursday. AREN The picture, one of the most vivid < spectacles ever made for the screen, is from Rafael Saba tini's famous story of medieval France. Vidor also figures as an author in the picture version, having, with Dorothy Farnum, adapted the colorful romance to the screen. Huge castles, great . crowd scenes, court functions in. gory ous costumes, all figure in the spectacular part of the -picturd. The story, conceded to be the masterpiece of the author of “Scaramouche,” “The Sea Hawk.” and others, provides an amazing display of Gilbert’s versatility. :!e or Disappears After Suit Is age of an expert swordsman for several weeks; swims a raging rivér on_ harseback, pole vaults out of the: grasp of his enemies and | does a score of other equally dan- | gerous and agtounding stunts.
