The picture is the tale of a | childless London widow's adoption boy during the dark days of the great world conflict. There is no boy-and-girl love in the play. There is no final “clinch.” Cooper appears throughout the play, which is based on Sir James M.

He creates a new hero-role, a sympathetic role, endowed with a rich whimsy of Barrie's literary original. It was adapted to the screen by | J. Walter Ruben, who has collab- orated on several pictures with Mevlille Brown, the director. Sue Carol and Arthur Lake have been given roles which fit them perfectly. “She’s My Weak- ness” is a most amusing comedy of ycung love, admirably directed and well played by a splendid all- around cast.
