STAR features Adolphe Menjou and Alice Joyce in, "An] Ace of Cads." The theme deals with the braggart who wore his sins as nonchalantly as a monocle. It tells how he forswore his dis- sipations for love of a woman, was betrayed by a friend, lost her, tried to forget, failed, and in the end won her back. Besides its dramatic highlights, the picture is notable for its settings in fashionable, foggy, conventional London and romantic, colourful Paris. A silent film.
