What the New York Times mid about Scarlet Days ,now being shown at the Davis theatre: Scarlet Days stands out by reason of_being a’ production by D. W. Grif- fith, manufactured out of sunshine and imagination with all of Mr. Grif- fith’'s masterly mixing of the ingre- dients of romance. It is a story. ol California in '49. when men's thought: were of gold but not golden. Richard . Barthelmess, the young star of the picture, plays the part of Don Alvarez, a Spanish “bandit king,” -and - therefore handsome anc dasning, a sure shot with the pistol and an even ‘surer marksman with the women—a character that is said actually to have lived In those glori- ous days when motion picture scema- rios were lived and not acted. Mr. Griffith is handicapped by his story, but that oniy gives him a chance to‘rise above it.
