EUGENE O’BRIEN AT
COLISEUM TONIGHT
“The Broken Melody," Eugene O'
Brien's latest picture under the Se]z
alck banyier. will be the featured at
traction at the Coliseum Theatre to
night only. It is a charming study
of two artistic temperaments—Stew
art Grant, a painter, and Hedda Da
na, a singer, who come together
through their diverging ambitions
for worldly greatness, and separate
for a period while each go their
roads * that lead to fame. Rut lore
eventually reunites them, both wiser
but no sadder because they find that
the fame they hare won apart may
be shared together.
Action In “The Broken Melody”
varies between Europe and America,
beginning in the famous seetiori of
Old New York known as Greenwich
Village, I from there to Europe and
back again to America. It is a simple
lore storjrdone whh charm SM dip
tinction, anil should appeal to all
lovers of good drama.
“The Broken Melody” was written
by Oulda Bergere and directed by
William P. S. Earle. Both author
and director are foremost In their
respective arts, and the result is a
photoplay that is thorough in every
respect. The star has been given
a notable supporting cast, headed by
L.ucy Cotton and Corrine Barker, and
the completeness with which Selz
nick produces a play is particularly
evident in this picture.
NEILANO PRODUCTION AT
PALACE LA8T TIME
Marshall Nellan is at once one of
the youngest motion picture produc
ers and one of the best that the
industry has yet developed. His
keen feeling for action that can be
represented plctorially, his genius
In devising situations and scenes that
the camera men can record with
authentic reality bear their finest
fruit in this film version of Donn
Bryne’s novel concerning a great
American shipyard, “The Stranger's
Banquet," his first production in as
sociation with Golilwyn Pictures Cor
poration which is at the Palace for
the .fast time tonight.
“The Stranger’s Banquet” is with
out a doubt the greatest picture that
Mr. Neilan has yet made. He ac
quired the motion picture rights to
Mr. Byrne's novel several years ago,
but waited to produce it until he had
such backing as his association with
Ooldwyn has given him in order to
produce it on the tremendous scale
which Its glory called for,
1 It has been magnificently pro
duced. OBe of the biggest shipyards

NAZIMOVA AT
COLISEUM SUNDAY
“Billions” is the highly interesting
title of Nazimova's newest cinema
' production, and in the drama from :
French source the brilliant actress j
will be seen as the fpature attraction ;
at the Coliseum on Sunday and Mon
day nights.
Advance reports on the picture de
clare it to be the best that Nazl
mova has ever done, notably from
the standpoint of the great variety
of emotional expression it permits
to the gifted Russian star and the
lavishness of its pictorial background.
As may be surmised, the plot of
“Billions” revolves about people of
wealth and high position. Nozi
mova's role is that of a Russian
Princess, who is widowed when the
Bolsheviki blow her titled husband to
atoms with a bomb. She has been
estranged from the Prince and is in
New York, living in the heart of
the uptown art colony of the metro
polis, her home the meeting place
for the cleverest members of artistic
Bohemia, when the story opens.
The Princess has fallen in love
with a poet whom she has never
seen, although her soul has tespond
ed to his verses. One day the poet
is suddenly lifted from obscurity and
the disarray of Greenwich Village In
to affluence through the death of a
fabulously rich uncle. Now a mil
ionaire, he discards his Identity as
a poet and sets out to see life and
spend his newly Inherited dollars.
The Princess, meanwhile, has be
come wealthy through the taking off
of her spouse, and she meets the
poet, acclaimed as a multi-million
aire, at a fashionable southern Cali
fornia hotel. They fall in love, but
some designing schemers endeavor
to blackmail the poet-millionaire and
the Princess comes to his rescue by
sacrificing her own reputation as a
good woman.
“BLUEBEARD JR” AT
PALACE SUNDAY
"Bluebeard Jr." said to be the first
successful motion picture farce which
comes to the Palace Theatre start
ing Sunday matinee, has been called
the Gulliver of the comedy field be
cause it stands up like the great
Colossus. it tells a modern day
story of high rents, greedy landlords
and shows how a home-loving, duti
fal husband is thrown Into a chain
of circumstances, through which he
becomes known as a modern “Blue
beard" but is cleared in the end
after explanations are made.
Mary Anderson is the featured
player of an all star cast of farceurs
who interpret this side-splitting farce
which becomes so intricate that it
finally takes a lawyer to extricate
the various people from the compli
cated situations.
Mary Anderson, as Nan Beech,
after spending many days, searching
for a reasonably priced apartment,
after having been raised the limit ;
In her old home, quarrels with her j
husband who dislikes the place. She |
goes to her chum’s home, he to hts i
office where he gets the good news j
that a lawyer is.ready to hand him |
$50,000, given by an uncle, provld
Ing he has settled down, is married
and has become a good husband.
The husband tries to reach his i
wife, fails, engages her chum as a i
substitute, only to learn she later
backs out. presses into service the
wife of the owner of a mansion
he has leased for a day, and then
his troubles begin.
