A Dramatic Film

nECLARED the most convincingly * J human story ever transferred to the screen, "The Way of All Flesh" is the first American-made starring vehicle of Emil Jannings, international screen idol. Jannings is the actor whose Boss Mueller m "Variety" was agreed by all critics and exhibitors to be the outstanding film performance of last year. The story is of human weakness. The devastating temptations of the flesh lure one and all — and Jannings is no exception. As a bank cashier thrust into the pitfalls of lust, he falls — waking to find honor and home gone, spirit broken, and loneliness. "The Way of All Flesh" has its initial Wellington screening at the Regent Theatre to-morrow (Friday).
