The news that Walter Brown's famous moral play, "Everywoman," had been made into a motion picture was no surprise to those acquainted with this dramatic masterpiece. Its striking story and manifold opportunities for production make it admirable screen material. The basis for a magnificent cinema spectacle was there. It remained for the directing skill of George H. Melford, the acting ability of an unusually excellent cast, and fine artistry in his direction. To transform "Everywoman" into the beautiful photoplay that is being shown at the Bowersock Theatre Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Scenes of lavish splendor form the setting for the story. The revels in the magnificent palace of Wealth, where scores of beautiful women dispatch at a monster banquet board, one with a large collection of pool and the other a dance hall, and the episodes in the great gaming hall are among the most elaborate ever screened. The bananat at the opening of the story is virtually a great fashion show. Women arrives like a lion, and the screen like an ordinarily dazzling mannequins exhibiting the latest creations of the modistes.
Dame Fashion has decreed that boquets of cut flowers shall be worn with afternoon and street wear, as well as in the evening. At all fashionable centers corsage boquets are as carefully selected as any other part of the dresser's attire.
tire is a dramatic production that is manifestly better suited to the screen than it is to the stage. It requires an expansiveness that the cramped quarters of the largest stage will not admit. Quite probably the author's intention was to realize more perfectly the author's conception of his story than have all the productions of the play since its famous premier in New York in 1911.
The title role is portrayed in masterly style by beautiful Violet Hiemer, the young actress who made such favorable impressions in "Three Faces Easst" and "Under Cover." Miss Hiemer lends the dignity and universality to her interpretation of Everywoman that the allegorical character of the story demands. The remainder of the cast is far above the usual merit, as she adorns each names as theotheore Roberts, Wanda Hawder, Monte Blue, Charles Ogle, Raymaon Hatton, Bebe Daniel, Tully Marshall. Mr. Roberts as Wealth, Miss Hawley as Beauty, and Mr. Blue as Love are perhaps the high spots in an interpretation that is uniformly excellent.
As is quite well known, "Everywoman" is in the main allegorical character. The story opens much as a drama of ordinary life. A beautiful girl at a banaras is wooded by a millionaire, an actor, and a poor physician. She is also besieged by the offer of a stage manager to embrace her. Then upon the story becomes a transcript of the journey of Life. The heroine becomes Everywoman, the millionaire is Wealth, the actor Passion, and the other characters bear similar names. Everywoman is urged to go upon the Stage of Life by Flattery to seek the fortune. Then upon her through many pitfalls, put the temptations of Wealth and Passion, until finally she reaches the humble hut of Love, who turns out to be the young physician.
