Freedom, Farce, Idiocy, Ete. ° (Continued from page 19) with a copy of Elmer Davis’ book of the same name in one hand, and my trusty forty-five in the other, shooting people on sight who hadn’t read it and indicated that they didn’t imagine they'd care to. The movie version clings to the book for dear life at first, but then it gets up some courage and strikes out for itself by way of cramming three weeks’ action into one day and night. This doesn’t seem to make it any the less funny. Reginald Denny, as Prof. Alec Deupree, keeps his smile turned on full force from the moment he is made to abandon the book he has started called, “Are Men Descendants of Monkeys?” to the end of the picture where he returns to finish the treatise and writes “Yes—The End.” (Tennes- see papers please copy.) From another of last year’s favor- ites, “Ann’s An Idiot,” we get Eugene O'Brien and Laura La Plante in nothing-in-particular called “Danger- ous Innocence,” the story of a girl who marries her mother’s lover after the big reconciliation scene which follows the great misunderstanding scene by about five minutes. To anyone who can’t guess everything that’s going to happen in this -pic- ture a week or ten days before it does this department will give a beautiful hand embroidered, lace trimmed dumb-bell. (Entries for this contest must be received before April 11, 1902.) This year’s “wow” was John Galsworthy’s tale of “The White Monkey.” It is now the pet of ibe aies Barbara La Marr. The mysterious painting of the story showed the monk engaged in squeezing a lemon. Philosophy had it that it was squeez- ing the fruit of life, drinking the juice, strewing the rinds and not knowing what it was all about. The producers have succeeded in putting themselves in the same class with the Albino baboon. They've squeezed the juice, left the rind and completely Barbara La Marred the book into a drink of weak, luke- warm lemonade. Our special Canadian research department lately brought in the report that the Northwest “Moun- ties” are darned fine cops but their beats are so big they only succeed in getting their man 4 per cent. of the time. This will come as quite a blow to moviegoers. However, in “Steele of The Mounted,” from the facile pen of Jimmie Curwood, Bert Lytell, gets his man, and his woman gets him. It’s just a great big game of tag. Bertie follows Stuart Holmes as Bucky Nome all over Canada while Charlotte Merriam as Isobel Becker, Bertie’s fiancée, follows him. The whole thing has the spontaneity and verve of a wax-work exhibit. Bebe Daniel’s latest, “The Mani- cure Girl,” is a wise-cracking film with a “nifty” in every title, only the little gems of wit and humor are all paste.
