Geraldine Farrar in “Shadows” “Fighting for are the film headliners at the Per- shing for the first half of the week. The Farrar picture opens in an able dance-hall scenes, but here there is a variation from the usual plot. Farrar is not the “queen” of this dance hall, or even one of the dancers. .-She is a New York “socie- woman and her memories of the past are the occasion for intro- | ducing the Alaska settings. Most of the subsequent action is in more civ- ilized surroundings and the story turns on the efforts of a villain to , use his knowledge of the heroine's Past as a lever to swing a mjning deal with her husband. The picture is beautifully photographed and pro- duced. Tom Mix's offering is a Western picture, in which this agile actor ex- ceeds his usual quota of thrills. and stunts. Several added features and complete the bill. “PITFALLS OF A BIG CITY’ LURE GLADYS BROCKWELL Gladys Brockwell, in a picture whose title fairly classifies it, opened for the first half of the week at the Liberty Theater yesterday in ‘Pit- falls of a Big City.’ Some awful things happen, or almost happen, to the fair heroine, but being a Star, she neatly sidesteps them doesn’t fall into a single pitfall.
