Tell Caesar, Marc Antony and Cleopatra in this film to wait right where they are till 1 return.” French history is getting its full share of attention in film productions this year. Two of the new big pic tures are Norma Talmadge’s “Ashes of Vengeance,” which is a story of Si. Bartholomew's Kve massacre, and "Scaramouche," which tells of the time following the fall of the Bastille. Constance Talmadge has ambitions to play a tiger woman wtih a stiletto and all such trimmings, but they won’t let her be anything but a comedienne. In "IJuicy” it’s even worse, for the word 'dulcy' is Holly wood slang for dumbbell.
