téen minutes of Miss Sten with her
lacquered eyelids clamped tight shut.
Then one eyelid began to flicker dra-
matically, and while we clutched the
arm of our seat with anticipation one
eye actually opened and.several gal-
lons of Murine poured out before Miss
Sten could pull herself together and
blink with surprise and pleasure. The
beauty of the Russian star is hardly
classic, nor is her acting anything
from foreign finds who are spirited
out of their happy homes and present-
ed with a fancy contract by producers
who feel they can put anything over | Mr. Atwill steps in as the foundation
on-the-American public with enough
publicity. She commits no histrionic
atrocities, and she manages to appear
very charming throughout, which is
about all we can think up to say about
the’ three million dollar Goldwyn. in-
vestment.
The cast which supports Miss Sten
is composed chiefly of Phillips Holmes
and Lionel Atwill. The former is less
objectionable than usual as the young
French officer who falls prey tothe
charm of the famous Nana. They

affair, if we are to‘take them at their

| gilded fly” and has his nephew tvans-
ferred to Algeria out of harm’s way.

typical of the entire production—both
men leaning over Nana as she lies
dying, and trying to hold her hand find
themselves suddenly. holding. each
other’s hands while the cause of all
strife and dissension passes on to her
reward.
There is really nothing about Nana
