The kind that tears a young..man.from his love on the morning after his wedding. Where there is no work. Where starvation faces the people and profiteers grow fat on their misery. Effective it is, and beautifully done and the acting of Lillian Gish helps to place it high among the films of the past year. The casting is ex cellent and the sup- port given to th star is more tha adequate. Karl Dan who gave one of the outstanding perfor- mances in the “Big de” is included in a minor role in “The Enemy.” It is all beautifully photographed and the directing goes a long way to help the stumbling story taken from the hed by Channing Pollock. Lillian Gish The story concerns a young Aus- trian girl Pauli, who lives with her grandfather, a professor | in a boys’! school in Vigna. She is in love with Carl, one of his students. Later she marries him and on the morning af- ter their wedding he is calied to war. The scene between the two lovers the night before Cari is to leave is beauti- fully done. Lillian Gish here plays her part with exceptional intelligence and strength, far above what she has shown on other occasions of senti- mental_slush. The want and misery of the people who did not go to war is shown. Work is impossible to find and food is scarce. The professor loses his job because of his teachings of love and peace. He and his granddaughter who is now expecting a child are left destitute. This is war. Yet it is not war that tae goes beyond a picture of only some | ¢ of its horrors. Whatever anti-war propaganda you will find in it is sentimental and entirely humanita- yian. Another phase of war is portrayed in the character of Carl’s father who is becoming rich profiteering. The wheat that he horded he is selling now at tremendous profits. War to him means profits and at the same time that Pauli’s child dies of hunger he is being decorated for his services to “God and the King.” And this is war too. A picture of it too close “THE ENEMY” IS WAR Realistic Presentation of War-Mad Vienna at the Astor Theatre SCREEN The Theatre Guild Presents PORG ¥ A FOLK PLAY BY DUBOSE a DOROTHY HEYWARD REPUBLIC [EY oye Sat, one hundred percenter. But essenti- ally it is war only that contents it- self in being strictly pacifist preach- ment. You will not find in “The Enemy” even the stark realism of another phase of war that was so effectively played in “The Big Par- 'ade.” And in its own field “The Memy” could have easily gone at east this far without any danger to profit. Here you will find some reason for the fact that even such EUGENE O’NEILL'S MARCO MILLIONS Week of Jan. 16: “THE GUILD THEATRE W torious reactionaries as Col.
