—— THHIBE NIRRT SIHIHI IR N e s Attractions At Theatres AT PALACE LAST 2 TIMES TONIGHT In the piecturization Lew Wallace's famous novel and stage play, n Hur,” at tha Pal-| ace for the t two times tonight, | a singularly conceptic the enfry of Christ into Jeru on Palm Sunday was filmed in technicolor by Divector Fred Niblo for the Metro-Goldwyn Mayer spec tacle. The entry of C salem was *handled very delicatc ly, though impressively. The face of the Christ is never visible. It is shadowed and hidden by th Branches of a palm. As He enters| through the Joppa Gate, a huge structure built in Rome, Italy, along the lines of the original Joppa Gate of Jerusalem through' which the Christ is said to he entered the city some 1900 y ago, .the enthusiasm of seve thousand people breathlessly wai ing the coming of the Messiah) Tose to.a crescendo. An. excellent cast of scre players eénact the principal rolés. Ramon, Novarro plays the part of Uty May McAvoy is seen’ds : and Carmel Myers as dras, the exotic vampire.

Another novel f of it is that you can use own discrétion in picking hero. Nobody will dispute that the fiery Charmaine, played by Dolores Del Rio, is a more than adequate heroine, and that vates Kiper and Lipin supply all the comedy necessary But who's the hero? Is it Cap tain Flagg, the hard-boiled Ma- rine who uses profanity by prefer ence, , gets glorieusly drunk, at Bar-lesDuc and leads his men into battle as light-heartedly as though he were- going on a picnic? Or is it Sergeant Quirt, the rough and blustering leatherneck, who knows all the card tricks in the deck, steals his superior officer’s sweethearts when he s & chance and takes his as a matter of course? Victor McLaglen plays the first and critics say it's his best per- formance yet, while Edmund Lowe is “the shifty baby” of the second part, and so cunningly di rence Stallings, one time cap! in the Marines himself, and Max- well Anderson construct the play that even on the stage the audi ence conld choose its own hero. In making the film, Raoul Walsh resolutely stuck to the same idea. There wasn't going to be any villain in his scheme of things, and if a hero or heroes were necessary they wouldn’t be of the mold commonly visible upon the screen. And so the audience can taKe its cligi¢e of the big hearted, . botibastic Flage, and the hand-! some, unscrupulous Quirt. But whichever I8 the hero, they have ‘ one thing in’ common—they are both real men. . i . ] 5 'f_'"rm\uv TRAMP, TRAMP’ AT PALACE TOMORROW rry Langdon required ‘the services of about two thousand 5 new seven-reel com- p, Tramp, Tramp,” ‘has just compléted for, 8l rélease.
