THEATERS
| NATlONAL—“Fioretta.”
There are many well tried friends at
the National Theater, where Earl Car
■ roll steps forward with the most ex
travagantly beautiful production for
which his name has ever stood in
sponsorship.
Even the story of the play has
pleasant reminders of old acquaintance
as a heroic swordsman follows in the
footsteps of Don Caesar de Bazan and
finds himself about to be put to death
for violating an edict that forbade
duelling. If Don Caesar found an
earthly reward of melodious tribute in
Marltana, as once more reincarnated in
new realms of romance, he is here re
warded not only by the triumph of
affection, simple and Intense; he is
transported to the lavish luxury and
the bewildering beauty of a Moham
medan paradise.
In case Mussolini is really serious
about reviving old Italian glories, he
need hardly go so far as the statuary
and colonnades of ancient Rome. He
might at least pause on the backward
| trip along the corridors of time and
I study this Idealization of Venetian
magnificence, as gondolas are revealed
with silver oars and boats have silken
sails, while speech is turned always
either into witty phrase or else set to
Irresistible melody.
The music of “Fioretta” Is one of its
most prominent elements of endear
ment. It succeeds often In asserting
itself to admiring attention even above
and beyond the pictorial pageantry that
makes the proscenium arch the frame
for a ficture where some Pygmalion, by
his prayers, breathes life into a wilder
ness of Galateas.
A theatrical program takes on deli
cate distinctions. The "cast” Is an
nounced and then a final "e” is added,
and the word “caste” appears to the
imagination.
Leon Enroll, Fannie Brice and Lionel
Atwlll are big typed. George Houston,
Dorothy Knapp. Theo Karl and Jay
Brennan find honor in achievement
though announced by less conspicuous
display. A half dozen other performers
are abundantly entitled to admiring rec
ognition in comedy or songfulness.
So many names are mentioned In
giving credit for incidental service per
taining to costumes, scenery and "direc
tion” of one kind or another that the
work begins to resemble a demonstra
tion of the theory of “efficiency,” with
“head men,” “key men,” “contact men”
and all the rest of the functionists who
figure in a large enterprise.
The production is not permitted to
remain only a mechanism of appeal to
love of beauty. Leon Erroll finds, when
he first appears, a complicated set of
lofty stairs which threaten to claim co
star recognition. His comedy, improv
ing every season, becomes more and
more humanly vital as well as irre
sistibly absurd.
Positive as she is in her chosen ways
of fun-making, Fanny Brice manages
to keep from stepping entirely out of
the picture, and in addition to the
characteristic chatter which never fails
to compel laughter, establishes a
climax as she holds her center of the
stage in a really comic “comic song.”
Just how Lionel Atwlll could make
himself at home in such rollicking and
tuneful company seemed a matter for
question, since most of this player’s
career has been devoted to work com
manding serious and often thoughtful
effort. He does not venture the mis
take of trying to excel in travesty, but
makes his role of a cold and calculating
master of court intrigue a kind of
dignified “safety zone” amid a maze
of reckless driving along highways of
comedy. His abilities are finely favored
in a soliloquy on human love; poem
of genuine excellence which should
arouse curiosity as to Its authorship.
The stage pictures are revelations of
creative imagination fortified by un
limited resources. At times they seem
to threaten almost a superfluity of
splendor.
As a revelation of feminine beauty
the spectacle is transcendant —the
costuiAes, gorgeous as they are, cannot
put into the background the physical
graces of those who wear them.
“Fioretta,” with its assemblage of
artists of all kinds, is sure to rank as
one of the greatest musical mergers of
the year. PHILANDER JOHNSON.
BELASCO—“Hit the Deck.”
A large audience and liberal applause
registered the public’s approval last
night of musical comedy at stock prices.
“Hit the Deck,” by the Savoy company,
received a highly complimentary wel
come at the Belasco, Kate Smith win
ning several curatin calls as Lavinia,
coffee house cook at the Newport docks,
where Reene Hamilton, as Loo Loo
Martin, falls In love with a sailor. How
woman’s love clings to a fickle, care
free sailor and triumphs over many
hardships is the thread of romance that
makes it a sentimental as well as hilari
ous performance. Frank Gallaher, as
“Bilge” Smith, the sailor-lover, makes
himself amusing for his foolishness as
well as lovable for the sturdy char
acter he portrays—that of a man who
would not marry a rich girl to live on
her money. The coffee house girl be
comes rich through the sale of an
heirloom and buys a freighter in order
to provide a place to be with her sailor
boy, but he didn't want no rich Jane,”
and how she follows him the world round
and rids herself of the money taint,
brings in Oriental and fantastic color
to contrast with the plainness of her
coffee house life. The pompous colored
woman, guardian angel of Loo Loo,
mixes Southern mammyisms with jin
rickisha rides and sailor objurations in
away that Kate Smith’s avoirdupois
enhances. _ „
Rosa Snowden as Charlotte Payne,
Thelma Parker as Teddy Gale, James
McKay as Ensign Alan Clark and the
three comical gobs—Robert Capron,
Robert Burton and Billy Kelly—provide
some outstanding examples of char
arter work. Edward Metcalf as the
mandarin, Norman Travers, Eileen Mc-
Evoy and Edward Metcalf, a large
chorus and the sailors, officers and
coolies In general leave the play noth
ing to be desired in personnel. “Hal
lelujah,” the hit song of the show,
dominates the second act, and Miss
Smith does full justice to this catchy
air. “Sometimes I’m Happy” and “Loo
Loo” win much favor, and Miss Smith’s
specialty songs, “Mighty Lak’ a Rose,”
“St. Louis Blues” and “I’ve Got a Boy
Friend Waiting for Me,” as well as a
talking piece, in which she ridicules a
parrot carried about in its cage, keep
her so promiscously occupied as to give
her more work to do than an ordinary
comedienne could scarcely take care
of. The performance was congenial for
all the mmebers of the company, who
may now be regarded as having es
tablished themselves as Washington
favorites.
POLI'S —“One Mile Up.”
“One Mile Up,” a thriller In three acts
by McElbert Moore, Earl Crooker and
Lowell Brentano, presented by Jimmie
Cooper, opened and ended with an ‘air
disaster” at Poll’s Theater last night,
with the members of the audience in
various stages of nervous prostration.
But according to the latest Information
available, the Zeppelin that-started from
New York last night for Berlin, and
which made such a mess of things en
route, will start again tonight. Do not
let the disaster mentioned above keep
you from being aboard.
“One Mile Up" was evidently written
before the Graf Zeppelin came to the
United States last year. But according
to some of the interviews given by
peevish passengers at Lakehurst when
the Graf Zeppelin landed, about the
only things lacking aboard that famous
ship to make the voyage a nightmare
were a stowaway with leprosy and a
mysterious series of murders and sudden
death.
The authors of “One Mile Up” have
sought to remedy such deficiencies, and
they have succeeded admirably. At
Poll’s, with the assistance of Ingenious
stage settings which leave nothing to
the imagination, they have undertaken
to show what might happen if a ship
of the air had on its passenger list the
inventor of a mysterious formula that
would destroy the world, at least five
persons who wanted to get this formula,
one wild-eyed newspaper reporter and
' a very fine and up-to-date leper, work
ing under the impression that he ought
! to share his leprosy with others. What
would happen? Well, there’s no telling,
but “One Mile Up’’ offers fascinating
suggestions. And before any member of
I the audiences which witness “One
; Mile Up’’ this week steps aboard a Zep
j pelin in the future you may be sure
that he is going to ask the captain if
; there are any lepers on board. If there
are, he will go by* the old-fashioned
! route and stick to the steamboats.
To describe what takes place during
“One Mile Up” would be unfair. But
i there are certain statements which must
be made. One is that “One Mile Up”
1 ought to start on time, although it does
require time to build as fine a Zeppelin
as there is at Poli’s. Another is that if
the public wants thrillers, and the pro
ducers seem to think that that is what
the public wants, there’s a fine one, well
, done, at Poli’s.
The cast is large and generally ca
pable. The work of Rose Hobart as
Wynne Madison is well done, and Wallis
Clark gets away well with the rather
difficult business of impersonating a
hard-boiled captain of a Zeppelin with
’ a lot of trouble on board. Edwards
Wood may be too excitable as Del Rod
man, the reporter, but—what a lot there
| was to get excited about!
STRAND—-“Step Along.”
Burlesque shows are generally pretty
; much alike in the ingredients relied
upon for entertainment, and one bur
lesque show is a sort of twin brother
or twin sister to the other, except that
sometimes a leader like Lena Daley
comes along, and although the costumes
of her show, perhaps, are no more at
tractive, the settings no more
magnificent and the girls run about
the same in good looks, singing and
dancing ability, one finds something
different.
“Step Along” has a homely name that
doesn’t mean a great deal, but Lena
Daley and her comedian, Lew Lewis,
manage to work into the show that
something which tells. In consequence
the patrons of the Strand Theater at
yesterday’s performances seemed to find
what they liked and they let the world,
at least the Strand w'orld, know it. But
the show is not all furnished by Lena
Daley and Lew Lewis. Charley Smith,
Florence Trotman, Loretta Lee, Harry
Harrison, Dave Gardner and many
others contribute their bits in song,
dance or merry comedy, that, combined,
| make a breezy and attractive entertain
ment. “Step Along’/ is likely to hold its
own without question along with its
predecessors in Mutual circuit burlesque.
FOX—"Sunrise.”
Not since the “Cabinet of Dr. Cali
gari” and the “Last Laugh,” those two
European products of cinema art, has
the screen offered anything that is even
' remotely comparable to “Sunrise,” from
any or all angles. It is overwhelming,
masterful and defiant of criticism save
the most laudatory; and what is more,
it is an American gem of which one
may justly be proud.
Although we would want to call this
wonder picture wholly our own, we must
admit that if it had not been for the
genius of F. W. Murnau. who was im
ported by William Fox from Germany
to direct, the chances are that the great
American picture would be still in the
offing. Murnau took one of the stories
of Suderman, peopled it with living
characters, and subtly wove it into a
pictorially vivid epic of human emo
tions that moves in lyric beauty to the
milsing rhythm of genuine heart throbs.
To him, therefore, must go the major
credit.
The lovely Janet Gaynor, made pur
posely to look rather old-fashioned, acts
superbly as the wife of George O’Brien,
who, incidentally, blossoms into a real
artist. We have come to expect much
from Miss Gaynor, but O’Brien springs
the most delightful surprise with his
remarkable delineation. Both are
charmingly natural, and one feels that
they, too, were inspired. Margaret
Livingston as the city siren, is always
convincing. The supporting cast is ex
cellent, especially Bodil Rosing.
Few directors get much out of their
photography or tell so much with so
few subtitles as Murnau, but there is
perhaps only one Murnau in the world.
Sound effects are synchronized with the
film and although the sheer force of
drama and artistry would make "Sun
rise” a masterpiece, even in silence, the
sound accompaniments seem to enhance
it.
“Sunrise” needs no co-attraction to
gain your attention, but the very light
ness and freshness of the stage presen
tation, "Dr. Jazz,” lends a decidedly
jovial note, thereby nicely balancing
the somber tone of the feature picture.
Fred Berrens, in the name role of the
revue, returns with his violin to master
the gay ceremonies. Miss Theo Penn
ington and Lawrence Downey, the latter
being the invisible master of ceremonies
of the entire program, sing Irving Ber
lin’s latest hit, “How About Me,” assist
ed by a dancing chorus of 10 clever
girls. Aileen Hamilton steps around in
weird contortionistic fashion in her ec
centric dance. Two young men, Harm
and Nee, warble in pleasing harmony;
Madeline Klein dances gracefully in
solo, while Mill and Shea bring the
, festivities to a close in a gale of laugh
ter with their clever comedy acrobatics.
The Fox Movietone, featuring Presi
dent Coolidge riding in an ox cart while
on vacation in the South, and selections
by the concert orchestra under Leon
Brusiloff from Saint-Saens’ “Samson
and Delilah” help to make this an un
forgettable show.
PALACE—“Three Week Ends.”
i Clara Bow has deserted her recent
1 attempts at “heavy drama” and has
i come back as her fans like her, to
! score in Elinor Glyn’s latest, "Three
■ Week Ends.”
1 Another of those inconsequential,
but, nevertheless, amusing comedies,
! with Bow and a good subtitle writer
1 tied for honors, “Three Week Ends” is
' Mme. Glyn in her less hectic moments.
' For, while the plot is one of those an
■ cient things built on rather unplausi
; ble coincidents, it is well enough done.
To go into the story would be only a
I rehash of an oft-told movie plot, and
! yet with several new angles and Clara
r Bow to flirt through the old ones, the
picture is “top-hole” for those on a
1 light diet.
’ Harrison Ford in a harassed bache
, lor bit uses his bag of facial expres
\ sions to make his last fling before
, matrimony an exciting one. The man
1 who makes good (this time it’s insur
( ance), with the "misunderstood” aid of
. a little cabaret girl, is played with a
. flair for “smart-stuff” comedy by Neil
Hamilton.
"Just Kids” brings the comic strip of
that name to life in a gay and some
, what different revue, with the cartoon
' Ist himself vying with the little Anna
I Chang to make it go. A1 Carter, crea
; tor of the funny little child characters,
does some rapid work with the aid of
: a crayon and a pleasing line. Petite
Anna Chang is a versatile entertainer
• with lots of personality, a “cute” voice
and a penchant for real dancing.
Other members of the cast play the
characters Carter has made famous,
, and the Gould girls give the necessary
chorous background with no little skill.
Wesley Eddy comes forth for a few
moments and the Syncopators keep up
| their enviable reputation.
' The first sound novelty in color fea
’ tures Gus Edwards, “the star maker,”
t in some of his old successes, and this
} » done in a retrospective but varied
' mood. The Fox Movietone news reel
> continues to lead in novelty and in
' terest, the M. G. M. news is full of
unusual "slants,” and the interpreta
tive orchestral number, “The En
. chantress,” utilizes all the colored lights
| available.

5 EARLE—“Synthetic Sin.”
> An amusing picture, “Synthetic Sin,”
i from the play by Frederick and Fanny
> Hatton, starring Colleen Moore and An
! tonio • Moreno, is showing at the Earle
t Theater this week.
» Betty, who lives in Magnolia Gap,
Va., has become stage struck and is de
termined to make acting her career.
With this end in view, she has taken a
home course complete in 10 lessons. She
believes opportunity hsts arrived when
Donald Anthony, a playwright, who
formerly lived in Magnolia Gap, pays
the family a visit and persists in acting
her parts much to the annoyance of
mother and sister who have other plans
for the young man’s entertainment.
However, persistency and self-advertis
ing win out and she is given her
chance, but falls dismally in the role of
an adventuress. She decides that the
only way to get the right atmosphere
is to sin and suffer, and acting on the
impulse she starts for New York City
to get it over with, taking Mammy
along. Anthony, who is in love with
the little madcap, learns from Sheila,
an actress, that Betty has probably gone
to “The Tiger Lily Arms,” in a tough
neighborhood, conducted by Sheila's
friend, Brandy Mullane, and they ar
rive in time to save Betty from utter
collapse after witnessing a gang battle.
Her stage aspirations died a quick nat
ural death and her remaining ambition
is to marry and play the part of Mrs.
Donald Anthony.
Gil Wells, a breeze from the South,
vocalizes the biographies of "Trusting
Joe” and “International Dan” with
piano accompaniment through the me
dium of the synchronized film. “Give
Us a Lift,” another Vltaphone produc
tion, shows the comical difficulties en
countered by Flo Lewis in getting a
ride. The animated sound cartoon is
full of whistles and shrieks.
Topical News shows President Ibanez
of Chile welcoming Hoover to Santiago,
Pope Plus XI receiving the homage of
diplomats on his fiftieth jubilee, millions
of flowers used in decorating beautiful
floats in the fortieth tournament ot
roses at Pasadena, Calif.; refueling the
Question Mark high up in the air, and
Italy's superb horseman from the Tor
di-Quinto School of Horsemanship per
forming before the King. An organlogue
completes the entertainment.
COLUMBlA—“lnterference.”
When “Interference,” the all-talking
sound film at Lowe’s Columbia Theater
was first announced, much discussion
arose as to its prospective success.
Certainly, the manner of presentation
is different from the general plot de
velopment of a silent drama. “Inter
ference” holds the audience and satis
fies the desire for the dramatic as no
soundless film could have done In pre
senting a silver sheet version of this
story of a woman’s jealousy and a dead
man come to life.
Voices are pleasing and settings lack
nothing of the elegance characterizing
the ultra-modem settings of the silent
drama. William Powell, as Phillip
Voaze, the officially. dead war veteran,
whose reappearance In the land of the
living leaves his former girl wife in a
distressing predicament, does a magni
ficent piece of acting. A reckless roue,
whose life had been spent largely in
satisfying his own appetities and desires,
Voaze, dying from the effects of post
war excesses, realizes his hopeless love
for the girl he had married in his
heyday—a love which makes of his final
act a redeeming gesture of self-sacri
fice. Clive Brook’s personality is even
more magnetic when the ilch tones of
his voice are added to the performance.
Evelyn Brent and Doris Kenyon in
the feminine roles present a striking
contrast. Miss Brent’s Interpretation of
the jealous sweetheart of Voaze, bent
on revenge, is especially noteworthy.
A Tiffany-Stahl sound color picture,
"Lover’s Paradise,” shows some beauti
ful scenes in Honolulu. Eddie Cantor
amuses in a Paramount sound picture,
offering some of his hits from
“Whoopee.” Ruth Etting, another Zieg
field star, also sings before the micro
phone. M-G-M and Fox movietone
news reels round out the bill, with, of
course, the usual house orchestral num
bers.
METROPOLITAN—“On Trial.”
, The continuous consumption of tear
ful scenes is the lot of Metropolitan pa
trons who see “On Trial,” a Warner
Brothers Vitaphone production, now in
its second week. The picture, woven
about a murder trial, furnishes a me
dium to bring before the public Pauline
Frederick, Bert Lytell and Lois Wilson.
The major scenes are those transpiring
in a courtroom in New York, where
Robert Strickland, self-confessed mur
derer, Is being tried. Other scenes aid
the director in presenting the testi
mony of witnesses.
Pauline Frederick, as the wife of a
rich but unfaithful husband, is given
the opportunity to display her talents
as an actress.
Bert Lytell, the self-confessed mur
derer, with but a few exceptions, has
nothing more entertaining to occupy his
time through the progress of his trial
than sit In silent virtuosity. He appears
to advantage in those few scenes in
which testimony of witnesses depict him
as the stunned husband who has unex
pectedly discovered a possible moral
flaw in his beloved wife.
Lois Wilson, wife of Robert Strick
land, has a pleasing Vitaphone voice.
This constitutes her most important ad
dition to the picture. Her testimony in
behalf of her husband carries her back
many years, to the time she was a girl
of 17.
The picture, part-mystery, semi
drama and near-tragedy, has a very
strong emotional appeal. Despite its
defects, it remains a powerful presen
tation of that side of life which many
desire to witness, but few desire to ex
perience.
A Pathe Sound News featuring Miss
Hazel C. Arth, Washington contralto,
precedes the feature. An Aesop's Fable,
synchronized with sound, completes the
program,
LlTTLE—“Berlin.”
The feature picture this week is one
of the most unusual on the theater’s
long list of unusual films. It is styled
"A Symphony of a Big City” and is re
markable in that the city itself plays
the leading role. There are no stars but
the metropolis itself.
It reminds one of the story O. Henry
wrote some 20 -years ago about a re
porter working in New York who was
assigned to put into type the voice of
the city. His efforts were fruitless be
cause he asked man after man, and
while each gave his one note to the
general voice, the note was individual.
In this picture at the Little Theater
this week the director fares better. He

Olmsted Grill. That is why our steaks and
roasts of beef are ever so much more
tender ajid juicy.
1336 G Street
is able to place in the shadow of a
film the voice of Berlin with all the
notes worked carefully together into a
symphonic whole.
Accompanying the feature is a biog
raphy of Hindenburg, the only au
thorized story of the German Presi
dent’s life. It is a colorful and inter
esting picture, made more so by the
claim to authenticity.
The comedy is not food for thought.
But for those who insist on making their
brains work at a movie show it is an ex
cellent "brain bath.”
