What you’re looking at
This page contains Carroll Carroll's film column reviewing contemporary movies, accompanied by a cartoon about indecision. The column discusses several films with their stars—*My Son*, *The Cape Cod Portuguese*, *The Crowded Hour*, and others featuring actors like Milton Sills, Adolphe Menjou, and Corinne Griffith (recognizable names to Judge's 1920s audience). The cartoon illustrates a man unable to choose between fishing and attending a ball game—a lighthearted commentary on modern leisure dilemmas. The dialogue joke about a dress costing "eighty dollars" appears to mock either extravagant fashion costs or possibly someone's gullibility in overpaying. The "Reel Stuff" column is essentially entertainment gossip and reviews for a magazine-reading public interested in early cinema and theatrical personalities of the era.
