BAD GIRL
STRIKING FILM VERSION OF A WELL-KNOWN . NOVEL. MAJESTIC GN MONDAY. "Bad Girl," long-waited Fox Film version of Vina Delmar's celebrated novel, opens at the Majestic Theatreon Monday. As the young husband, James Dunn, recent recruit from the New York stage, mal.es what preview aceounts have callsd the season's most impressive screen debut. Edwin Burke's adaptation of the story is said to place quite as much empha- • sis on the young husband as on the wife in this drama of adolescent love, marriage and maternity. Sally Eilers, remembered for her recent colourful portrayals on "Quick Millioris" and "The Black Camel," will be seen as the girl-bride heroine in the title role. Her characterisation in this tensely human and deeply emotional role is said easily to eclipse anything she has done before. Briefly, the story deals with the meeti^ig of a young New York shop girl with a radio mechanic. They fall in love, rather too well than wisely and are forced into a hurried marriage. Then they find that an heir is coming. Their joys, sorrows and emotional vicissitudes during the following months form the basis of the drama that ensues. Minna Gombell acts the ever-present friend of the young Wife.
