PICTURE PERE Lon Chaney, is now playing in which he appears in' a re Lon Chaney Picture Said to Be One of Six Best Pro duced This Year " "The Tower of Lies,", a Metro Goldwyn-Mayer production, direct ed by Victor : Seastrom, will nn doubtedly be" tanked as one Of the outstanding six productions of the year. , This picture - opens tonight at -the Heilig theater and will be shown Sunday, Monday and '.Tues day."" ; - - Without doubt the popularity of Norma Shearer aitad Lbn Chaney, co-stars, add to the attraction of the production! but' Seastrom's di rectoyal genius has given the" pic ture a touch of appeal that can not go unheeded. We had thought that Seastrom had-reached the pinnacle in "He ' Who Gets Slap- ped,?Mn which Miss Shearer and Chaney also appeared but ' that picture could . never attain the heights reached by "The Tower of Lies;" , ' ' " The picture is a screen adapta tion of Selma Lagerlof's popular novel, "The Emperor of Portu gallia." The continuity was pre pared hy Agnes Christine John ston, who has ' many- successful scenarios to her credit and who must 'have gotten everything out of the original story for her screen version. : At no time in the careers of Lon Chaney or Norma Shearer has either of these two stars been giv en such a wonderful screen ve hicle. Miss Shearer has far out done any of her former successes and Cheney has made a very radi cal departure from his usual char acterisations with highly gratify ing results. "The. Tower of Lies" must be commended for the . heights and depths reached and tor pathos which has been translated to the screen. There have, been few pic tures which grip " at the heart strings and bring smiles of joy at unexpected moments, as does this one.: . . , ,'-,.;' ; "The greatest characterization of my entire film career! That is the way Lon Choney describes his role of Jan," the "insane emperor" in "The Tower of Lies." - - ; The role offers opportunities for a wide range bit acting and in the story covers a period of more than 20 years! :: It opens with Chaney as a Swedish farm tenant," a' hard working grouch Mho ; sullenly and recentfully ' looks r forward to the birth a child as One more mouth to feed," and less time for his wife to work-in the fields. But with the birth of the baby Chaney becomes a different char acter and devotes his entire life to her.

The climax scene, a log drive, ; was taken on ' the Middle 1 Fork of the Coquille river, and Is one of the most thrilling bits of ac tion ever , transferred to the screen. So realistic and true did the 'producers seek to make the picture ' that one - of the actors,' who was doubling for Holt during the - drive, was swept - into the raging waters of the stream and drowned before he could -t reached.

The climax ot the struggle comes during the great spring log- drive. In which the man has to pit his own unaided strength against not only a ruthless mil lionaire with every resource at his command but against the forces of nature as well. The picture ends with the thrill ing break-up of the log-jam, and the hero, after risking death. comes back to life to find himself. under surprising circumstances. married to the girl he .loves.
