For if ever a picture deserved superla tives It surely la this screenplay, which Forrest Halsey adapted from Booth Tarkington'a story. Imagine the love interest of "The Sheik." the romantic coloring of "Blood and Sand and the spectacle of "The Four .Horsemen" combined in one photoplay and you begin to understand why 'Monsieur Beau cairo" is a photodrama of amnzing beauty and power. To the students of history it will be an inspiration; to the schoolboy it will he an edu cation, and to the blase film fan it will be a revelation.
