The story of taking research. "Klamet" is Inld in eighth century Bagdad, with all the glary and ple- turesqueness that characterized that Oriental city when it was the greatest trade centre of the civilized world. In a court procession, for which an entire quarter of ancient Bagdad was reproduced at the studio, an instru- ment called the manjira carried the nir of the march, while double drum- beats marked the rhythm on pairs of kettldrums borne on the backs of Nubian attendants. The soft, lilting Oriental songs were accompanied by the saringi, a stringed Instrument. played with a bow, comparable to our modern violin. In the harem of the enliph, where many beautiful dancers sway to Eastern rhythms, the music was furnished by a threstringed in- strument called n sitar, and the beats accentuated by the damburn, or hand drem fleading a notable Otis Skinner, who played the same rolo on the stage with such great success. Supporting Mr. Skinner are Loretta Young, David Manners, Sid- ney Blackmer, Mary Duncan und Edmund Breese. John Francis Dilion directed, and "Kismet" is said to be the finest work of his directorial
