New Pictures

That's My Baby. Douglas McLean is a mobile and generally attractive gentleman who occupies his time with comedy. This one is perhaps less laughable than usual. It tells about a mobile and generally attractive stockbroker who fell in love with the fair daughter of his bitterest rival. Much of their wooing took place at a charity bazaar, in which most of the assembly had put on silk trousers and just gone Turkish.

The Volga Boatman. Cecil B. DeMille, whose name has become synonymous with ridiculous excesses in bathtubs and flappers, has turned to Russia. He has taken the seething horrors of the Russian Revolution and turned them into a pale pink romance that will give you the fidgets. The Boatman of the title falls in love with the Princess, and the Princess falls foul of the wicked soldiers. The picture is often rescued by sets and photography of startling beauty.

Beverly of Graustark. Marion

Davies makes in this picture one of her occasional appearances on the screen and intensifies the impression that she is an exceptionally capable comedienne. Perhaps her grasp of emotional acting is less secure; there is so little of it in Beverly that it doesn't matter. Miss Davies plays a girl, in one of those romantic phantom kingdoms, who masquerades for her cousin the Prince.

A Social Celebrity. Adolphe Menjou in the part of a small-town barber who scaled Manhattan society, is about the same as usual. Mr. Menjou makes a point of being unfailingly amusing. He has to help him in this venture an exceedingly personable and promising newcomer called Louise Brooks.
