New Pictures

Just Suppose was, some years ago, a play about a mythical Prince of Wales. He came to this country, fell in love with one of our loveliest, and was denied the right to marry her because of the exacting demands of royalty. But in the cinema (you have guessed it) he does marry her. England need not be alarmed. The Prince and his kingdom are mythical. And Richard Barthelmess does not resemble the renowned Edward Albert. Not that it matters particularly, since the picture is pretty dull.

Hands Up. Famous players nave taken their newest comedian and wound him round with a Civil War burlesque. The action is somewhat mischievously placed in Utah, and Brigham Young and most of his wives are added for eccentric complication. The comedian is Raymond Griffith and the play has a double happy-ending. Thanks to the proximity of Salt Lake City, the hero is permitted to marry both his sweethearts.
