IN "THE PRICE OF IWOCEVCK," STRTIIXO, l'MSUL DRAMA, WHICH WILL. OPE.V TODAY AT THE LIBERTY THEATER. TODAY'S FILM FEATURES. Liberty Stella Talbot, "The Price of Innocence." Majestic Alice Brady, "Red Head." People s Earl Williams, "The Hornets' Nest," Joe Martin monkey feature. Columbia Lillian Gish, "True Heart Susie." Star Alice Joyce, "The Cambric Mask." Circle Lila Lee, 'The Secret Gar den." Globe Charles Ray, "His Own Home Town." Sunset Jack Pickford and Louise Huff, "What Money Can't Buy." WITH a theme similar to that so successfully used in "Shore Acres" and "Way Down East," Manager Paul Noble of the Liberty the ater is bringing "The Price of Inno cence" to Portland motion picture fans today. Accompanying this film feature on the Liberty programme will ""be "Model Girls, a Prizma picture, and a Luke comedy, "Just Neighbors." Alur- tagh will be at the organ. Stella K. Talbot, new to the majority of Portlanders, is the star of "The Price of Innocence." As the girl who makes the supreme sacrifice to save her family she has a strong emotional role to play. Critics who have seen the play agree that her work is re freshingly new and yet true to all the old standards of world recognized art- sts. Her beauty is said to be not least among the charms of the picture. The scene of action is Goose Island, little place inhabited by simple fisher folk. With this background the com plexities developed by strange neces sity and unbending conventionality are drawn by Miss Talbot and her support ing cast with a sharpness and ability upon which the producer, Buffalo Mo tion Picture corporation, has taken considerable pride. Screen Gossip. Scenes of "The Misleading Widow," the new picture starring Billie Burke, were taken at Clifford Dunning s Beau tiful home at Glen Cove, L. 1. Repro ductions of the interior of the Dunning home were built at the studio where the film was finished under the direc tion of John S. Robertson. "The Firing Line." the screen adap tation of Robert W. Chambers' novel, with Irene Castle in the leading role, s said to be a remarkable photoplay. Mrs. Castle, with her husband, Captain Robert Treman, spent much time at Lake Placid, where spring scenes were made about a hunting lodge with beau- tiful Adirondack scenery to set off the j location. "Across France With the Yankee Gas Hounds" is the title of a new trav elogue. This picture, especially timely because of the return of thousands ot soldiers who saw service with the mo tor transport service overseas, takes the spectator through the beautiful parts of France which were routes for American trucks during the war. Harold Lloyd was an interested spec tator at a recent baseball game be tween the Los Angeles and Seattle clubs of the Pacific Coast league. "Cy" Falkenberg, the long, thin veteran of many seasons, was in the pox for Seat tle. "I'll say that bird is t-h-i-n," piped a fan within hearing. "Thin?" said the comedian, "I'm just waiting for him to turn sideways once; I want to hear the wind whistle around the corners of his hips." Ruth Roland is the first serial star to head her own producing company. To use her own words, she is now an "Inc.," being the mainspring of Ruth Roland Serials, Inc. The first picture to be made by the new company will be a 15-episode se rial entitled "The Adventures of Ruth." It also rrtarks Miss Roland's first plunge into the literary Meld, since she is the author. "The use and the appearance of the hands mean everything in motion pic ture art," says Florence Reed. "The slightest movement of a finger may have significance. In some pic tures you may have seen a character with perfect makeup as j:o the face, but the hands and wrists appear as if dipped in tar. "It's the little things that count in motion picture work. The hands, the eyes, the expression of the mouth, all count and count heavily." One reason why the actor likes mo tion pictures, says Dustin Farnum, .te that there are no one-night stands in that art. Mr. Farnum confesses to having played almost every "tank" in the country and got the impression that every train is scheduled to leave at 4 A. M. "When you work in the pictures," says Mr. Farnum. "you live in a home instead of in a trunk." Jack Xorworth. entertainer of the vaudeville and musical comedy stage, writer and ainger of popular song suc cesses and producer of musical shows, has been signed as star in "The Crooked Dagger." Early in the war Mr. Xorworth went to London, where he appeared for near ly three years without a break in a re- view by Sir James M. Barrie and th music halls. He is at present playing on the Keith vaudeville circuit. Wesley Barry is rapidly making a name for himself as one of the leading screen actors of the silent drama. This boy, barely 12 years of age, has been engaged as one of the leading supports for Blanche Sweet's new picture. His last appearance in Portland was with Mary Pickford in "Daddy Long Legs." And, Oh, boy! he gets a real man's salary really far more than the ordi nary manager of a commercial house could expect. The motion picture serial, according to certain writers on subjects related to the screen, is "a form of entertain ment that is losing ground and popu larity." On the other hand, the house of Pathe, noted for production and distri bution of serials, and therefore some thing of an authority, has announced the biggest serial programme in its history. During 1919 and 1920 Pathe will release seven serials. The Emerald isle, with all its at mosphere of peasant life, is found in the sets of "Peg o My Heart," accord ing to impression received by John Mo Cormack. famous Irish tenor, in his recent visit to the studios. Mr. Mo Cormack was invited to the studio by Cecil B. DeMille, director, as forfeit in a tennis game in which the tenor beat his friend with the assistance of Mau rice Mc-raughlin, former world's cham pion. The singer pronounced the cot tage scenes absolutely true to the Ire land in which he was reared; and he was delighted to find that an old friend Thomas Meighan, whom he knew in the old country plays the leading male role in the pictures.
