Founded on J . A f . Barrie'j famous play “ The Admirable
Crichton.” Adapted for the screen by Jeanie Macpherson
ECIL B. D e MILLE has pro-
duced a considerable number
of the biggest motion picture suc-,
cesses in the history of the screen.
I f you satv his productions, “ Don’t
Change Your Husband,” “ For Bet
ter, For Worse,” and “Old Wives
for New ,” you cannot forget them:
every one a great human drama,
every one a great Paramount A rt-
craft Picture.
' In “M ' ale
‘ and Female” you see the
luxurious civilization of the state
liest homes of modern England—
you see a sumptuous English yacht
wrecked on a South Sea Island and
its titled occupants flung ashore by
the sea and forced to struggle for
existence under Swiss Fam ily Rob
inson conditions— and later you see
the same characters moving amid
the barbaric splendor of a court in
ancient Babylon!
An all-star cast including Thos. Meighan, Gloria
Swanson, Lila Lee, Theo. Roberts, Bebe Daniels and
many others.
