EMPIRE
“KID BROTHER” AND “TIN HATS” When Edward Sedgwick was seeking the leading feminine player in “Tin Hats,” the Metro-Goldwin-Mayer picture playing at the Empire Theatre, one of the primary requisites of his heroine was a beautiful neck and shoulders. One look over the motion picture and Claire Windsor won without even a test. The part is that of a lovely German girl of the uoper classes, typical of the old world aristocracy. A beautiful neck and shoulders to offset the low cut gowns of 1919 were necessary to any actress than won the part. And Miss Windsor’s regal grace and beauty showed Sedgwick that she was the ideal type he sought. Conrad Nagel plays opposite Claire Windsor in this convulsing comedy of the Army of Occupation in Germany, and Bert Roach, George Cooper and Tom O’Brien are in the cast.
