I Thursday, April 14, 1927 » The Majestic NATAL Zane Grey’s genius for story tell­ ing and Paramount’s superlative skill in picturizing his colorful tales of the old west in all their grip­ ping realism find celluloid expres­ sion in a new melodramatic thrilier with the unusual title of “Forlorn River,’’ which comes to the Majes­ tic Saturday, starring Jack Holt. Emil Jennings, famous continent­ al cinema artist, who like our own Wallace Beery usually hides 'neath a drab wig and hairy face, has at last come out “into the open.’’ Those who see “Variety,” the Ufa film which Paramount will pre­ seat at the Majestic theatre Sun­ day, will have an opportunity of se ling what Emil Jannings, judged by many to be the world’s finest actor, really looks like. “Variety” features Jannings along with Lya de Putti, a young woman who has taken a meteoric path to fame. It was directed by E. A. Dupont. 1 With a fast-moving story of a lost mine, a dying prospector, a crooked saloon-keeper, the prospect­ or's daughter and a border kmgiit- errant, Bob Custer’s latest release for FBO, “The Dead Line,” is un­ questionably the most interesting and exciting picture he has turned out yet. Ths film, which is com­ ing to the Majestic theatre next Monday, has a strong note of real­ ism and vivid reproduction of the life of the desert, and the charac­ terization, ordinarily a minor part in westerns, is unusually convincing and colorfuL Lon Chaney has found his thou- sand-and-first face I The famous delineator of weird characters dons a makeup that makes him as hand­ some as a matinee idol for some of his scenes in "The Road to Manda- lay,” his new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer starring vehicle coming Tuesday and Wednesday to the Majestic theatre. | But in the main he appears in ■ weird and fearsome disguise as the j sinister ruler of the Singapore un-1 derworld.
