- “THE SON OF THE SHEIK’
- The Shiek himself again!
Or, rather, he's “The Son of ¢
Sheik” this time and he comes o
the Capitol theatre tomorrow.
Rudolph Valentino, supported Ly
Vilma Banky, the exotic Hungarian
beauty, has returned to the screea
in the same type of role that woa
him fame and name, that swep:
t’lle world with its appeal and made
, the words “sheik” and “Rudy” syn
onomous. As a gesture of Bracious
deference, Agnes Ayres, the same
charming lady who resisted vhe
passionate advances of Rudy in t'nut{
earlier film, returns to the sereen
in “The Sonjof the Sheik” 1w
flashbacks” to the first story.
“The Son of the Sheik” is a se(mzl‘
to “The Sheik,” written by the sawa
Edith M. Hull and read by milliamsl
and then adapted for the screen by
Frances Marion, famous woman
scenarist, and directed by Georg-rei
Fitzmaurice for United Artists Cor"
poration release. During the produc
tion of the film and after its pre
view in Santa Monica, California
by an executive audience, When Val
entino \_?\_'g_s\clfieered and had to fight
his way to his automobile; and tl‘e‘
ensuing acclamations by the publiz
at: the Million Dollar Theatre, New
YQrk, at the premieres, it was said
that Rudy is “greater than ever.”
Tllé_;é;l})llll‘o of the Sheik’s son bv
a villainous Moor (Montague Love)
and his robber band, and the crvel
whipping given the boy, the res:ue
by a loyal band commanded by the
giant Ramadan—our old friend, Karl
Dane,—and the fierce fights of im
passioned males for a woman, gou3-
ing and knifing blows in the dark—-
these are the fighting backgrounds
for the love story. Valentino’s rol2
calls for shadings of sudden calm
with his love in the desert silence,
then ecrunching hate of her for hur
alleged deeceit and clutehing at her
to ride away over the hills to his
tent. . % : il
Cast All Famous Movie Fig\;res
Manager Miller of the Capitoi
Theatre has ‘]‘JJ;u'Licularly called tie
public’s'attcntinn to the fact that the
great personal attraction of Rudoiph
Valentino -in the very type of roie
that the millions have requested rim
by ballot to play, is augmented by
the prominent cast in “The Son of
the Sheik.”
The bold-headed Bynunsky Hyman
is in the cast: so are Erwin Coa
" nelly as a Zouave, and Charles Re
qua as Pierre. Manager Smith aas
called it one of the greatest casts he
has known, and every supporcing
.actor worthy of the honor of piay
ing in a Valentino feature film ol
the proportions of “The Son of the
. Sheik.” i
