nlque, "Barbed WiI-e.'tPola Neg
ri's new starring yfehfcle, whlch
opened yesterday at the Jllslnore
Theater, has been called the" out
standing motion picture of recent
film history.
"Barbed Wire" wins this rank
first and last because it portrays
life as it is; because It is a story
based on the most dramatic Inci
dent of all time, the world war;
aid because It is not a war picture
in the sense most commonly ac
cepted. 4 -
It treats of a phase of the con
flict heretofore untouched, of the
ltfe of German soldiers in a prison
camp in France. "Barbed Wjire"
is an adaptation of Hall Calne's
great novel, "The Woman - of
Khockaloe." The powerful story
has lost nothing In its transition
to the screen; rather it has gained.
Pola Negri Is superb as Mona,
the peasant girl who is irresistibly
attracted to love Oskar, a prison
er in the camp near her home, in
spite of the first bitter hatred she
feels toward the enemy of her
country. Once more she Is the
Pola Negri of "Gypsy Love" and
of "Passion" her two sensational
European-made successes.
This is "because Miss Negri was
surrounded by the perfect staff,
the perfect cast for the production
of this new picture. Erich Pom
mer, who'made "The Last Laugh"
and "Variety" and more recently.
"Hotel Imperial," was co-producer
with Rowland V. Lee, who direct
ed Clive Brook, one of the best of
Paramounfs leading"; men and
Einar Hansbn, the young Swedish
actor, appear in able support of
the great star. Brook plays the
part of Oskar while Hanson is1 cast
as Mona's brother who is called
away to war.
Claude Gillingwater, the veter
an character actor, gives a won
derful performance as the Father
and Gustay von Seyffertitz as the
cold-hearted neighbor leaves noth
ing to be desired .in the way of
villainy.
Oregon Theater
"Resurrecttan," the picturiza
tion of Count Leo Tolstoy's im
mortal story of love and sacrifice
that opened at the Oregon Thea
ter last night, is one of the most
realistic pictures that has ever
been brought to the screen. Con
gratulations on the film are in or
der to Director Edwin Carewe, to
United Ostsand to Rod La
Roc$EHana Dolores del Rio, prin
cipal' The Inspiration Pictures
Edwtn Sarewe production of Tol
stoy's classic is a powerful and
entirely worthy one.; -
Rod La Rocque, in the role of
Prince Dmitri Nekhludof, very
nearly plays tbreeicharacters in
one, giving the'ehanges that take
place in the soul of the Prince
and their reflection in his physi
cal appearance. As the dashing,
impulsive youag Prince who de
clares his love for the peasant
girl, Katusha Maslova, he is tfts
boyish and innocently carefree as
an undergraduate off the campus.
Sketching clnematicallythetrans
ition to the sophisticated, almost
savage courtier of a few months
later. La Rocque is another man,
a devil-may-care type of whom
nothing is.Bacred. forj wboja ,th
whole , perspective of life is
changed. Finally, as the lover, a
fine, upstanding and worthy
Prince whose soul has been purged
in the fires of understanding love.
La Rocque reaches the peak.
The star is perfectly balanced

of the Prince's sin. ' A finished
performance by. this versatile
Kpnora in .the famous Dart : of
Katusha )vtTsl ova proves $r dram

rthe audience the true meaning of
unselfish love. . Sonaehowi - one
does not ; hesitate rto hazard, the
belief, that: this is the finest roYk
of Miss del Rio seen to date.

; Audiences vrill- be transported
to the rural, districts when Jim
mi "Mimic" puna graces" "the
stage at the Capitol theater in his
latest act "Stop, Look and Listen."
Mr. Dunn is noted as one of vaude-vill's-
foremost mimics. Prom his
throat comes praeticallyf all the
vocal sounds of the. barnyard and
fields- realistic "moos," "bleats,"
"bow wows" and other vocal in
tonations of the open spaces. Jim
mle also impersonates well known
celebrities' of the stage with con
summate skill and mimicry. He
itcorporates these accomplish
ments with a varied and interest
ing discourse which illustrates his
thorough knowledge of that school
called "showmanship."
A rollicking, good natured
young man with a smiling per
sonality that begets hosts of
friends, and, most r attractively
beautifur and charmiBg p'retty
miss .whose tunning-gowns" en
hance her pulchritude, comprise
the persomnel of , her act of Ketch
and Wilma, present a novel com
bination offering, which they bill
as "Vocal Variety," consisting of
singing, talking and ventriloq
uism, in which comedy runs riot
throughout. Both members of
the duo are excellent entertain
ers, Mr. Ketch being particularly
proficient as a ventriloquist, his
efforts in this5line varying much
from the average performance
presented by ventriloquists as he
carries on a. triangular conversa
tion, in which both members of
the team and the "Dummy" par
ticipate. This unusual feat nat
urally calls, for quick action on
iha part ot Jthe artist, who in or
der to answer the dummy, must
necessarily duplicate the usual
routine of . ventriloquists.
An unusual feature of the act
is. the singing by Mr. Ketch in two
voices, a baritone and tenor, sim
ultaneously. Doctors who have ex
amined Mr. Ketch have reported
that he has two distinct vocal
cords on each side of his throat
Instead of one. "When he uses
the four cords at one time, the
tones harmonize giving the im
pression of two persons singing.
"Vocal Variety" as presented by
Ketch and Wilma furnishes a
most amusing delightful and
thoroughly enjoyable entertain
ment.

Grand Theatre
A game of wits, .with death as
the penalty for failure and liberty
the reward for success, is indulged
in by John Barrymore in one of
the most entertaining scenes .of
his first United .Artists picture,
"The Beloved Rogue." The film
is based on the life of France's
famous . vagabond poet, Frances
Villon.
Villon, banished Irom Paris 'al
.tr a long aeries of escapades
ranging from petty thievery to a
public insult to the powerful
Duke of Burgundy, courts the
from l&oo&o by rettu-ala9te Paria-Ca-
a violinist, tured, he is taken before in
I
Louis XI to receive the death sen
tenced Louis, the half-mad mon
arch, a man of many superstitions,
taunts Villon from the throne,
suggesting that, since he Is such a
brilliant rhymester and a man of
rare intellect he may be able to
foretell the time of his death.
The scapegrace poet, with
scant hope of success, but; rely
ing on his knowledge that, the
king, though arrogant and cruel,
Ja many times swayed by super
stitious "beliefs,? answers t f Ji '',
"Yes, Majesty, I can." -The
king, taken back for a mo
ment, bids" the poet reveal the
time at which he expects to die;
whereupon Villon, quite meek and
humble says:
"Majesty", ft Us 'written in the
stars, my death, occurs just twenty-four
hours bef orb your own.'!
The king, flabbergasted for a
moment; looks qultically towards
the poet, trying to read in his
eyes whether he speaks the truth
or is playing a Joke. Ho is torn
between 'his impulse to disregard
the poet's intimation," and the
fearful influence of his supersti
tions. , , ,
. The outcome , of this odd sit ua
tion, where a poet of the people,
on, the, point , of being sentenced
to death, dares to match hU wits
against the strange mentality ot a
half mad king, is one ot the1 inost
surprising highlights In "The Be
loved Rogue." ' ' 1
