BREAKFAST AT SUNRISE
PARISIAN LIFE Constance Talmadge's latest starring vehicle, “Breakfast at Sunrise,” is a First National production dealing with Parisian life, which has given Miss Talmadge free rein to instil her piquant and vital personality into the film. The story concerns a strange marriage pact, that develops so many complications, that the principals move in a maze of sequences, both witty and farcical, until it is eventually unravelled. Some of the situations are really laugh-producing, and the whole plot is deliciously intriguing and entertaining. Constance’s frocks are of course, the last word in French sophistication, and will delight feminine followers. A very subtle comedy of a rather blase Parisian belle, who sought to regain her husband's affection with the help of the green-eyed god. How she fails, but wins the love of Pierre, through a series of delightfully funny situations, makes this one of this sprightly star's most interesting contributions to the screen. Naturally. set in the high life of Gay Paree, the settings are very fine, the very last word in modernism. Constance's new leading man, Don Alvarado, Is a very ornamental attribute*, who. however, also does some exceedingly clever work as Pierre.
