STRIKING TYPES
IN BIO HE
Yitualixat ions of some BBttSUal
eharacter types are a feature of the
big Clune cinema drama, "The Eyes
of the World." coming to the Tar
mcle, starting next Thursday. Har
old Bell Wright's novel, on which
the photo production is founded, is
rich in types, and the utmost care
has been used in the recrerition of
these for the screen.
It has been asserted that there is
not a hackneyed character iu '"The
Eyes of the "World." and the story
is both, idyllic and melodramatic,
but its melodrama is of the finest
type.
Particularly in the drav. iug ot
Sybil, the mountain girl; Id Grange,
the novelist; Taine. the physic; I
wreck of a misspent life, and Henry
Marsten, the convict, has the auth
or shown his unusual powers of
characterization. The burncd-out
roue, Taine. contrasts strongly with
the ingeniuos young artist. Aaron
King, ambitious for fame, but who
is on the point of debasing his tal
ents tor the easy way to success
and becomes the shining mark for a
designing woman.
Then there is Conrad LeGraUJ .
the Cynical story-writer, who con
fesses that he 'haunts the intellec
tual slaughter-pens" for material
lor his "successful" stories, but iti
whose heart stUl burns many of the
kindly sentiments of his earlier
days. Again, there is James Etatt
lidge. the bull-necked art critic.
