POLA PUTS HERSEF ON
AUCTION BLOCK IN FILM
Slave markets of antiquity have
their counterparts in modem life, ac
cording to Dimitri Buchawetzki, whose
production “Men,” starring Poli Ne
gri, contains an illustration of how
women are bought and sold today.
Filmed by the Russian director as
his first American made picture for
Paramount, “Men” contains the story
of the amazing adventures of a
French girl. “Cleo,” who begins life
as a waitress in a cheap wine shop
and rises to fame as a dancer in
Paris.
The role of “Cleo” is played by
Poli Negri. Surrounded by a host
of men who strive to win her favors
by fair means or fouf, she finally
promises to give the privilege of her
company to the highest bidder.
Handled by the masterly direction
of Dimitri BuchowetZki, the scene
which follows is probably unsur
passed in the history of motion pic
tures. The camera moves from face
to face where greed, passion, fear,
avarice and desire are depicted upon
each countenance. Bidding, one
against the other these men play
the modern equivalent of the slave
merchants of ancient times.
Chosen to support Pola Negri in
this powerful pictures of life among
certain sections of European society
which is at the Liberty theater, are
well known players such as Robert
W. Frazer, Robert Edeson, Joseph
Swickard, Monti Collins, Gino Corra
do and Edgar Norton.
Dimitri Buchowretzki produced
“Men”' from his own original story
which was scenarized by Paul Bern.

ALASKA MOVIE
TRUE PICTURE
OF THE NORTH
NORMAN DAWN PRODUCTION AT
KETCHIKAN RECEIVED MUCH
FAVORABLE COMMENT.
(Ketchikan Chronicle)
The Valley of Ten Thousand
Smokes with its steaming fissures,
lava covered land of dead forests,
white wastes of ash and Mount Kat
mai in flaming, belching eruption,
the mountinous ice masses of the
Arctic, turbulent rivers and wide
peaceful valleys, of the interior and
the forest ridged, flower-clad hills of
the coast line of Alaska make the
Norman Dawn Alaska produced film,
“Justice of the Far North,” or “The
Eskimo,” a true picture of the North
land.
Before leaving for the south last
fall to complete the taking of the in
t§rior scenes, Mr. Dawn and his
company filmed a number of scenes
in Ketchikan and on Pennock Is
land.
The picture showed to a crowded
house on its initial showing here at
the Coliseum and will be seen at that
playhouse the following night for
the last time.
“Justice of the Far North” is ori
ginal in theme, portraying the love
story of an Eskimo, the little known
people of the far north, and the con
tinuity is so arranged as to show
scenic views from the Arctic to the
southwestern and southeastern Alas
ka coasts. Although much of the
film is devoted to the incomparable
scenery of the Territory, the produc
ers have not obtained scenic effects
at the expense of the cohesiveness
of the story and the audience last
night was well pleased.
Of particular interest are the pic
tures of the Valley of Ten Thousand

Smokes, which are said to be the
first moving pictures taken in that
district and which are expected to
prqve of unlimited value in adver
tising Alaska.
The views of the ice masses in
the Arctic and the glaciers are splen
did and the action of the theme
showing the dog teams on the ice
and the mishaps which befell the
characters were not overthrown,
many of them being similar to true
incidents which have occurred in
the experiences of the old timers in
the north. The scene showing two
of the characters whirled on a raft
down the river demanded courage of
the players who actually performed
the feat on one of the treacherous
streams of the southwest coast and
no doubles were employed.
The rough hewn huts, the sheet
iron drum stoves, store goods piled
from the floor, littered shelves and
unlovely furniture, perhaps not so
artistic but truly more typical of the
outposts of the civilization in the
north, mark “Justice of the Far
North” a truly Alaskan picture at
the outset and not some fiction of a
scenario writer who has never seen
Alaska and visions it as a place
where the inhabitants live in palatial
log cabins with nearly all of the
modern convenience's.
Some fine furs are also shown in
the trader’s cabin. These furs were
valued in excess of $100,000, Mr.
Dawn told a representative of the
Chronicle when in Ketchikan last
fall, and from their appearance on
the screen they appeared to bear out
the truth of his assertion. Arthur
Jasmine plays the role of the Eskimo
and does very creditable work in the
part. George Fisher in the heroic
lead is also excellent. Ilak, the wolf
huskie owned by Mrs. Dawn, was
instantly recognized by the smaller
children who saw the picture last
night as, the dog which was so friend
ly to them and whic^ excited their
admiration when here with Mr.
Dawn.
Special music for the picture was
arranged by H. L. Windus, organist
for the Coliseum, and deserves spe
cial mention for its appropriateness
to the picture.
“Justice of the Far North” has
created a wide interest in the cities
outside where it has been shown on
account of its scenic value and true
portrayal of Alaska.
