Metropolitan — "Fl:rting' With Love." b Collecn Moore has turned her back on hoydensth flapper roles for the time being, and in “Flirting With Love” which wlll be the picture offering at Crandall's Metropolitan Theater next week, demonstrates what she can do in an emotfonal dramatic role. Short features will include a com- edy, the Metropolitan World Survey and concert overture and interpreta- tive score by the Metropolitan Orchestra, Daniel Breeskin, conductor. In this First National pi-ture Col- leen is co-featured with Conway Tearle ard- the cast containing such names as Winifred Bryson, Francls Raymond, John Patrick and Willlam Gould. Miss Moore has the role of @ temperamental actress, a star in musical comedies, the success of which has been based on the irrisqueness. Her new show is closed through the instrumentality of a stage reformer, a part played by Mr. Tearle. The actress pretends to lose her memory and warders into the home of the reformer, who is also a student of psychology, planning to decelve Lim into believing that she is a subject for psychological study {and then to ridicule him publiely. Miss Moore throughout the play really enacts two roles—that of the temperamental actress and -that of the “amnesia vietim” a demure, modest and shy young woman. Columbia. Up to the present time, no definite announcement has been made as to the attraction scheduled for next week at Loew’s Columbia, where Rudolph Valentino is currently appearing in ‘Monsieur Beaucalre.” This is Valen- tino’s first production in nearly two years and the picture has already achieved popularity with Washington audlences. Valentino's performance in “Beau- caire” has been hailed by Washington critics as probably the greatest of his career. while such well known actors as Lowell Sherman, Doris Kenyon, Bebe Daniels, Lois Wilson and others appear in support. The story is a romantic idyll, by Booth Tarkington, written many years ago, and contains much romance, humor and pathos, forming a beauti- ful background for such actors as are above named.

Menjou has the role of an Ameri- can who, after years spent abroad, dotermines to revisit America. He is warned, hawever, that America has gone jazz mad and that youth rules with ‘an iron hand. Tempted to undergo the Stelnach rejuvenation process, he submits to the operation and shortly comes fortk with the cynical wirdom of a man of 50 but the physique of a man of 30. He immediately enters the gay set of New York, captivates a beautiful jazz-girl and becomes the leading sponsor of wild parties, only to suddenly relin- quish his leadership and return to a quiet life when he discovers that his only son is his rival.
