That is the reason some- | one else, possibly Marion Davies, is to play Katharine Cornell’s role | in “The Barretts of Wlmpolc‘ Sireet” when it is filmed. i In an effort to get something new in a courtroom setting ‘“legal precedent” was sought by the Met- ro-Goldwyn-Mayer art department, and it was found that a mnew courthouse in Alabama had a mod- ernistic courtroom. So the play has the first ultra-modernistic court set in the talkies Harry Briedman an attorney, was on the set throughout the trial of Rob- ert Young to see that every line of dialogue and the action of ev- ery player conformed to court eti- quette and legal . precedent. Harry Beaumont directed the new thriller in which an elabor- ate cast appears. Helen Twelve- trees plays the heroine, faced with the choice of her brother's life or the sacrifice of her own repu- tation. Robert Young is the bro- ther, and Robert Warwick, famous star of silent films, the father.

In this she is abetted by her hus- band, who sincerely believes that wedding ties should not cramp tone's style and that both goose and gander may partake of the same spicy sauce. Jay is to be strictly a party husband and Laura a part ife. Laura secures a position in a publishing house with a worthy gentleman named Purcell, while Jay takes to arranging broas t programs, all of which sounds emi- nently proper. Jay is taken un- der the doubtful protection of a busy and bibulous lady named Bee. | A mutual friend tries to slow Bee's speed. Laura's employer takes her to a distant city on particular bus- iness. Jay begins to doubt the love-and-let-love theories which he has advocated—and follows in hot haste and the witch’s pot be- gins to brew. The story is an adaptation of the novel by the same name by Geoffrey Barnes. It has been deftly directed by Clarence Bad- ger, and sets and photography are |fine, but it is the interpretations of character which make the piece so living and human. There is just the proper dash of humor and enough humanity to comteract the hard sophistication with which it Adeals Dorothy Mackaill, dazzling, pro- vocative, twinkling, gives a por- trayal of ‘captivating vividness.

The order suggested that householders use weaker light bulbs and shut off their heaters.

Helen Ware is her most amusing as the mother-in- law of the party husband. Jack Donahue is a tippling best man at the wedding. Paul Porcasi does a dilletante artist with amorous leanings, cleverly. Mary Doran and Barbara Weeks are charming.
