And, uecdlcKU l if say, it was a new J Mary. I'nlike Samson, the ordeil in having her hair nobbed, instead j of taking away her strength, In creased it. No only her airenntl. hut her dramatic power, and her abilities in an actress. in fart, in our judgment, this all 1 talkie VCouuette''. marks Marv Pick-1 ford as one of the outstanding emn lional iictiesijes of this generation. We have- never Been anything finer, on the screen or on the le gitimate stae, than her treatment of that death nceno in this poig nant play of modern southern Hie. What a temptation for bathos and overacting! How difficult to maintain just the proper note, nec essary to tmnift'onn, what poorly handled was mure sub-sluft, into yeiiume lieiu't breaking ras-dy. 'JO And her love making, too. To de pict genuine feeling, not. the fake movie variety i uu art, and the mature Mary Picktord has master ed that art. In the spiritual subli mation process only JJolores Uei )cio can cum pure with her. Also Mary's treatment of that phrase, "Just simply ado'ble." trans torm inj; it gradually from u mere school girl verbal ta.;,- into u theme note ot genuine significance and pathos. Not having been a Mary I'ick ford fan in tl-e past, "Cotpiette " for us marks the greatest achieve ment of her career. .We believe I everyone seriously Interested in j the ucieea particularly the talk- ing screen as a new development I in Uiamatic ai t,- should tee this j lilm before it leaver. . I The only criticism of the produc- j tion last night that we could make; was what seemed to its an imper- j fection in the .sound reproduction, j ii any rate ii v:.s not easy at times to catch all tho words. Per-i haps that wan due, however, to tlu ! fact, that we arrived late and had i to take a sent at the estreme rear. ! Incidentally, uere is beautiful I photography in "I'ouuette," excel lent support and. must refreshing to us, the original play has imt been distorted and sugar coaled to satisfy the no-called demands of the box office. Willi that . colored . classic, "liearlfi of Dixie," the first of the week and "Coquette" the latter part, the George Hunt company .is certainly giving the local m-jvie public the veiy .heiit that tho sea son in current films offers.
