LnaUy-roranionnt, with I'annle Ward, from
llupcrt Harsent Itolland'a nmel,
That tlrcsomo theory about tho folly nnd
failure of doing costumo films goes up In
smoke every tlmo anybody does a good one.
Of course, knee breeches nro hnrdr to wear
than trousers, Hnd everything else, from
scenery to "lenders," reunites moro pains
when the plot Is thrown Imck Into tho days
of romance. Hut once a director has a good
story, like that of "The Winning of Sally
Temple," nnd tho senso of beauty, romanco
and fun which has been expended on Fnnnlo
Word's new vchlolo nt tho Stanley, there
Isn't a question of Its success. Tho very
fuct of costume lifts 11 out of Ihe ruck of
everyday releases
This new l.asky pioduct boasts (i
lively plot, with a coiiplo of Impetuous Kng
llsh noblemen jut for tho heart nf it lady,
and It Mvolxes such flavorous matters ns a
prize-ring bruiser to rescue her and the
most dellclously glngerbready stato coach
In which ever lady vvns abducted, llarrlng
some uncertainty about the start nf tho
story, thin film is splendid entertnlnmcnt.
Somehow or other, tho director has inan
ngod to make his settings as well ns his
pooplo act out a rich nnd humorous sort of
eighteenth century.

As an Indian half-breed, whose rich,
white fnther found tinhnpplness in society
because of his wealth, nnd who herself
meets disdain or cupidity from nil but
one, I.enoro Ulrich Is a well-nigh perfect
type. Among tho Indians she suggests tho
wh.to woman and arouses n sense of charm
which no hero can bo blamed for remark

Here Is tho best piece of directing In a

sued under the Selznlck signature, ft puts
Allan Dwan way up next to D. w. O. aa a
director, with every tilck of the traito nt
his lingers' ends nnd a rare nrtlstlc Intel
ligent thrown in. He knows how to build
n real scennrlo, even out of a stage play.
Ho knows how to throw detail nfter detail
at us, always with Just tho right emphasis
to make n complete ami continuous picture.
Ha knows how to center his llchts tin his
peoplo nnd to leave his rich and solid' set
tings In atmospheric obscurity. Ho knows
how to get tho best out of his players nnd
mako them "point" every subtlety of plot
that In another director's hands would take
a "leader" to put over, oro than that, hp
knows how to create tho real atmosphere
of such diverse things ns Itiisslnn prisons
nnd flogging grounds and niuslo studios,
because, presumably, ho has sensitiveness
and culture. Thero Is a distinction In tho
opening scones nf '"I'nnthca" no American

In laudable taste without too much clut
