You are caught in a blind ulley, with your back to a massive door. Upon you rushes a squad of soldiers shouting in a foreign tongue of whicn you do not understand a word. But one thing you do know that if they can reach you they will kill you like a rat. What will you do?. Jack Bar rymore decided to fight, and he put up one of the greatest battles ever seen on the motion picture screen. It all happens in "Nearly a King," in which the Famous Players Film companv is starring the celebrated comedian on the Paramount program. It is the attraction at the Arcade for Monday and Tuesday. But the fight, which is one of the most realistic and thrilling that has ever been seen on the screen, is only an incident in this whirlwind of fun and romance in which Jack 'Barry- more is at his very best. The trouble all origiates from his resemblance to the gay young Prince of Bulwana, wjio nas decided to marry an actreBS rather than espouse the Princess Hel ene of Okam, whom he has never seen. It is a super-Barrymore role, which the great comedian plays in "Nearly a King," for it combines thrills and romance with the ridiculous situations in the depicting of which John Barry more has no equal. It is Barrymore plus if the term may be applied to so versatile an actor. AT SHERRY'S When Pugilism Is Picturized. Most people, despite the atmosphere ! of war, are willing to be "too proud to I fight," especially when it comes to a nian-to-man struggle with the fists. Just now, of course, there is a super abundance of oratorical fights, letters to the editor from our old friends, "Vox Populi" and "ProBono Publico" (omniscient wielders of the quarrel some quill!), and the usual "within the law" gymnastics of the .boxing ex perts. (But getting down to ireul fist fighting is usually left, by most of us, to the libatious "huskeys" and actors in moving pictures. We get nearest to fighting in the pages of the papers; we sometimes listen to the man who has paid good coin for long trips to the ring-side, ale to fire old Lowre's interior for combat, the whole floor-space of an English "public house" is worked over time and again in the cyclonic rushes of the combatants. In and out among chairs and tables; up and down a short flight of stairs, now sluggin" now wrestling, these two giant actors impersonate the Tugged ferocity of vengeful and besotted beast, battling with clear headed science and just that shade of advantage that 'the sober man possesses. "Secret Love" is a great film be cause it is many-sided in its character phrasing. The fight is only one ele ment; the. e is the charm of sympathy, the delight of two love stories and the pathos of natural frailties which takes one poor girl to suicide that she may right her conscience, insofar as Vm'r earthly act may do.
