GEORGE ARLISS STARS SUNDAY GREEN GODDESS Famous Ac—t;r_ in Notable Melodrama Will Be at Coliseum The polish of an English gentle- man and the heart of a Chicago gunman. That is the nature of the role that George Arless por- |trays in the melodrama, “The | Green Goddess,” Warner Bros.' all- talking Vitaphone production which \wi!l begin showing tomorrow atthe Coliseum theatre Mr. Arliss made this role famous on the stage and silent screen and |now he has put it into permanent Vitaphone form. Only with the new medium of talking pictures could the famous star get across to a new audience all the delicious deviltry of the character of the suave Indian Rajah who baited his guests with taunts of torture and death while entertaining them with all the lavish hospitality of an East Indian potentate. Polished and Heartless Arliss is past master of the pol- ished and heartless roles and always succeeds in both delight- ing and shocking an audience. In stage production’ of “The Green Goddess,” written by Willlam Archer, he delighted American audiences for more than three years, and then took the play to London where it played for one year and a day. Adaptable to Screen Tt was a most successful play— a melodrama that adapted itself perfectly to the stage and the screen. Following his success in the stage role, Mr. Arliss made a si- lent screen version which became an outstanding success. The new Vitaphone production promises to exceed its predecessors in popu- larity. Assisting Mr. Arliss is a notable cast, including Alice Joyce, H. B. Warner and Ralph Forbes.
