This is an unusual picture in many ways. First the story is a gripping one and has a wide ap-| peal. It 'is beautifully photo- graphed, well directed, and the; acting is beyond ecriticism. First National officials who cast this picture knew their business. Then there is some of the most gorgeous spectacles in it that one could see .on the screen. . There is a dashing jewel parade. There is a banquet hall sceme that is simply amazing in its brilliance. Doris Kenyon does’ the best work of her screen career in this picture. Warner Baxter is splen- did in his role. Philo McCollough as the heavy has what we consid- er the finest role of his career. Mae Allison is, as always, delight- fully charming. Charles Murray is as funny as ever. Little Nancy Kelly, who plays the part of a three-year-old boy, seems to bz another child find for the screen. She is a finished actress. John Kolb, Maude Turner Gordon, Cyril Ring, Charles Beyer and others are all good. But Doris Kenyon stands out in this picture as one of the finest actresses of the screen. Her emo- tional acting is superb.

This doesn’t work, and when Huntly has to wait up, for wife's return, things come to the breaking point.
