To begin with, the story itself, by Arthur Stringer, is amusing—that of an Alaskan sourdough who, after twenty-five years of catch-as-catch- can with an Arctic environment, gets $1,000,000 for his mining claims and comes to New York with his strong- arm daughter and her pet bear to “do” the town. Chester Conklin, as you can well imagine, makes a most engaging sourdough, and Aileen Pringle does supremely well as his handsome, naive, but somewhat dangerous daughter. She, of course, is the “Wilderness Woman.” Once in New York they meet Alan Burkett, the suave tenderfoot who had previously journeyed to Alaska and paid for the mining claims in person, and become _ irretrievably attached to the daughter. They also hook up with some confidence men who would sell pa the subway. Lowell Sherman, as the tenderfoot lover and man-about-town, achieves a very subtle combination of humor, appreciation and fastidiousnese, quite capable of charming the Amazon of his choice. And the three confidence tne MOVIES: men are wholly believable—the “Colonel,” played by Henry Vibart; the “Judge.” played by Burr Mc- Intosh, and their young confederate, played by Robert Cain. It is the latter's hazardous role to keep the Wilderness Woman entertained while the others attend to pa. He does, until his initial success goes to his head and with a left to the jaw and a right to the solar plexus he takes the count. Meanwhile pa . . . But if you want to know how it all comes out go see it for yourself. Just a word about the photography and Til desist. “The Wilderness Woman” might be played effectively on the speaking stage, but without the richness of setting afforded both by the Alaskan and the New York scenes, which have nothing of the effect of being lugged in. In other words, without effort of any kind the picture fully justifies the screen as the ideal medium for this particular drama. The titles, too, are excellent... . “Pp. RAMOUNT'S JuNror Stars,” all graduates of the Paramount School of Acting, make their screen début in “Fascinating Youth,” which reminds one more of a house party than a movie. In a preliminary an- nouncement the audience is informed that the dozen or so young men and women in the cast are the pick of 15,000 applicants from all parts of the This magnifying glass for fishermen enables them to state the dimensions of “the one that got away” with an air of sincerity that carries conviction. comicbooks.com
