R. Wylie's novel, “A Fea Her Hat,” which was long lar seller. Complementing the story is an ex- cellent cast which includes Pauline Lord, Basil Rathbone, Louis Hay- ward, Billie Burke, Victor Varconi, Nydia Westman, Wer Nana Bryant and other Santell, known for his d dling of difficult theme: the film. The perform: given by the ta ented Miss Lord in “A Feather Her Hat,” is reputedly one of finest she has given to date. has been in only one film previous to this, “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cab bage Patch.” Playing the important role of gentleman “toff” in “A Feather Her Hat” called for skill, hence the casting of so capu- ble an actor as Basil Rathbon Rathbone is seen as the cultured but drunken, English-captain, who is taken in by Miss Lord so that he may impart to her lower class son some of his gentlemanly polish and tastes. Hayward is the son; Miss Burke, a fluttery and distressed English actress; Miss Barrie, the girl Hay- ward loves. Strange as it seems, it took the picture, “Small Town Girl,” cu rently playing at the Capitol The: tre, to get a break for a big town girl. And the star of the picture, Janet Gaynor, was directly respen- sible for the happening.
