With some of the men the thrill seems to last a life time and they return many times to Africa to indulge it lion-shoot- ing. Few of thesé big game hunters would care to undertake the cap- ture of a full grown lion alive. Yet Hubbard did in “Untamed Africa,” the thrilling Vitagraph Inc. feature picture, which is nmow showing at the Coliseum theatre. On his two-year filming expedi- tion into Rhodesia and Portuguese East Africa to obtain these sen- sational wild animal pictures, Mr. Hubbard, who has captured and tamed mére animals that probably any other man alive, decided to capture a full grown lion, and record the process of capturing the king of the veldt on film. When ‘two lons broke into the corral where the native cattle were kept, Mr. Hubbard ordered the na- tives to bring-out the nets pre- pared for such an emergency—nets made of woven flax ropes 100 feet long and twelve feet wide, used in three thicknesses to keep the lion from breaking through the net once he was snared. This episode forms ome of the most thrilling sequences ever seen in any African wild animal film and is a highlight of the picture. The lion was captured and carried on the shoulders of, natives to the compound. —_—————— 90 o000 ece 0 b0 . AT THE HOTELS . Peo00 00000000 Gastineau George Doran, Juneau; P.

Gilbert in the silent days was the screen’s acknowledged ‘‘great lover,” with a fan following that persisted and grew with each re- lease. It was as his partner in screen romance that Greta Garbo achieved her greatest fame in the days before talkies. Greta survived the talkie revo- Tution as a star in her own right, | but Gilbert became “just another actor.” The postic justice comes in here, in the chance that oppo- site the Swedish star whose career, Rub Your Eyes Fans—Yet, It’s S() John Gilbert’s with Garbo Ag dlll. e his DlC[ur(’s helped to build he again has an opportunity to build anew for himself. A VOCAL BARRIER Perhaps no star suffered more from the talkies than did John Gilbert. When his first feature talkie appeared, ‘“His Glorious Night,” the verdict was anything but glorious for John, his voice as reproduced, proving poor. the crude recording of the time, and on the stiltedly romantic ve- hicle crosen for his talking de- but. His better, but as far as his old box- office prestige was concerned, he was a fallen star.

In true Lloyd style, the} film combines the best of humor pathos. { In following the antics of the star as he tries fo crash the gates of filmdom, the spectator cannot help but feel a bit of sympathy| for his awkwardness, but in the end he overcomes all obstacles in his way to happiness. Constance Cummings ably sup- ports the star, and lends the ro-| mantic touch to the story. One word of warning also is duo‘ to the theatre-going public of Ju-| neau. If you have a cracked lip, or a broken rib, don’t see “Mov- je Crazy.” It might cause com- plications. “Fast Workers” was fair but far from sensational. A previous pic- ture, “Downstairs,” Gilbert had written himself, and as his con- tract expired, early in January, his ambition to write and direct came to the fore. A FABLE—WITH PAY That Gilbert contract with M- G-M had become one of the fables of Hollywod. The studio had sign- iron-bound contract that was not subject to annual renew- als. as are most Hollywood con- tracts. And shortly after Gilbert, had the document in his pocket, the talkies came, and M-G-M may have been sorry. So Gilbert made pictures, and he collected, week | after week, regardless of what the | plctures brought in, but friends | said he wasn't happy about it. Coming only a few weeks after Gilbert had announced his retire- ment from acting to devote him- self entirely to writing and direct- ing, his former studio’s signing him for “Queen Christina” was a sur-| prise to Hollywood. Under the new contract he vull‘ act, write and direct as well.
