Nothing could show the versa
tility of Allan Dwan more effect-
ivelr than his ability to go from
. the- modM-n iaix tempo of hia
former productions, to the subtle
'and "stately melody of "The Music
Master." which he recently adapt
ed to the screen for Fox from the
famous old stage play.
The story Is laid in the New
York of 1900, and is chiefly con
eerned with Anton Von Barwig,
a lovable old-musician who gave
np a" brilliant career in Vienna to
come to Americ in search of his
wife , who rah away with a man
who-' had been his friend, and
tf ken with her bis baby daughter.
. For nineteen years be continued
the search, selling, in the mean
time, all his precious mementos
of happier. days to pay detectives.
At the time the story.opens, he Is
living in a cheap boarding house
near the Bowery, teaching music
to the children of the "neighbor
hood and playing evenings in a
medicine show orchestra.
Then he meets his daughter,
who has been brought up in lux
ury by the man who betrayed him,
and is about to marry into one
of New York's most distinguished
families. He goes to her home to
give her piano lessons and hears
ber tell, of her life, and of her
mother who has died. But he
does not let her know who he is
because he is afraid of spoiling
her .chance for happiness.
There Is infinite sadness in the
theme, and Alec Francis in the
role;ofthe lonely old man has
done a beautiful piece of work.
Lois' Moran. as the daughter, is no
loss perfectly cast, and Neil Ham
