“MEANEST MAN IN PICTURES”
CAST IN LATEST PARAMOUNT
Sheldon Lewis, sometimes called
“the meanest man in pictures” lends
his villainous film personality to one
of the featured roles in George Mel
ford’s Paramount production, “The
Top of the World.” Anna Q. Nilsson,
James Kirkwood and Raymond Hat
ton are the other three sterling play
ers with whom he shares acting hon
ors.
Lewis’ role is that of Dr. Saul
Kieff, a vicious, unscrupulous physi
cian, who uses his skill and medical
I
knowledge to further his own sinis
ter designs.
“It is the first time,” Lewis com
mented, “that I every played a part
without a spark of self-respect or one
tiny redeeming trait.”
That the lot of a screen villain is
indeed hard is borne out by the fact
that in this production Lewis is horse
whipped into insensibility by Kirk
wood. O Art, what seacriflces are
niade in thy name!
“The Top of the World” showing
tonight at the Liberty theater, is bas
ed on a screen adaption of Ethel M. j
%
Dell's well-known novel of the same i
i
name. .
