Craterian Star
Unusual Theme In
Craterian's Film
With Miss Colbert
Garbo. the screen's first actress,
will be at the Craterian theatre Sun
day In her newest, "The Painted
Veil," from the story by that master
story-teller, Somerset Maugham.
Beginning In the dreary homo of
an Austrian scientist and, following
the star's marriage to a young Brit- !
tsh doctor, the story ascends to most
gripping episodes of love, hatred and
sacrifice In the cholera Infested dis
trict of Interior China. Fraught with
the mystery and Intriguing lure of
the Orient, the picture serves as an i
admirable successor to Gar bo's last ,
production, "Queen Christina."
Herbert Marshall, rapidly becoming
one of the most popular leading men
In pictures, heads the supporting
cast as the yoing doctor who mar
ries Garbo and takes her away to
China, where he quickly neglects her
for his scientific business.
George Brent, the dashing young
Irishman, is the "other man;" War
ner Oland plays another of his Chi
nese characterizations; Jean Hersholt
is Garbo's father, while others In
clude Cecilia Parker, Beulah Bo mil
and Kathcrlne Alexander.
Phone 542. Weil haul away your
By Dirk Anplegute
"Imitation of Life," which opened
at the Craterian last night, Is an un
usual picture In every detail. Star
ring Claudette Colbert and Warren
William, the main theme, or at least
the principal one among several, be
ing the racial problem, In which two
children, one white and one colored,
are raised side by side, going to school
together until they are old enough
to realize the color barrier.
As the colored girl (who looks
white) grows older, she begins to hate
her mother, a loving old soul who
Is black. Around this situation Is the
main theme built.
The secondary theme, which Is
almost as absorbing, deals with, the
affairs of Claudette Colbert, who is
a widow. When her own child Is out
two years old. the old darky woman
comes to live with her, bringing her
own child and a recipe for swell pan
cakes. Miss Colbert decides to open a shop
and sell the pancakes. The venture
succeeds, and she becomes wealthy,
sending her daughter, who Is nsw
about 18, away to school.
While her daughter Is away. Miss
Colbert falls In love with Warren
William, and they decide to be mar
ried, only to have the daughter re
turn Sr.: a vacation and fall In love
with the same man.
lor those who like drama, sophls
t'catlon, comedy and pathos In the
same film, skillfully blended, "Imi
tation of Life" Is an excellent pic
ture, with very few places where the
interest lags.
Perhaps the story would be more
convincing If the girl who is sup
posed to be black and looks white,
really looked white, which I didn't
think she did, but that's quibbling
over a detail which In no great meas
ure detract from the pleasure of the
picture.
A typical Fannie Hurst story. Good
entertainment withal.
