CINEMA NOTES.

GRETA GARBO HEROINE OF "ROMANCE".

Among the hundreds of reasons which have been advanced at ano time or another to account for the phenobunal success of Greta Garbo, exclusive of her inimitable person- ality and beauty, is that of the Swedish star's Versatility. Whereas other cinema personalities are eun- tent to shine within limited spheres by which they may be recognized na the upper-type, the sophisticated- type, the romantic-type, etc... Mins Garlo refuses to be cast into a mould and has made it a point to insist on being given a totally different charne- terization with each succeeding plc- ture.

From the Spanish portrayal, of such early pictures as "The Torrent" and the "The Temptress" and tho eratie favour of "Love" and "Flosh and the Devil" Miss Garlo awung to the restrained but highly dramatic characterization of the maligned English heroine in "A Woman of Affairs." Followed the oriental | atmosphere of "Wii Orchids," and then, in striking entrast. The Ameris Jean girl of "The Single Stapdard." The sophistiented woman of "The Kiss was her next cole, and close upun its heels came the totally un- expected elarneterization of
