Analyzing Box-Office Merits of "Bonds of Love"
Theme of New Frederick Drama Has Sure-Fire Appeal

THE best praise to accord Pauline Frederick's latest Goldwyn dramatic success, "Bonds of Love", is to tell you that it is one of those rare products of the screen -- a photoplay that will positively grip your audiences from the first flash to the final fadeout.

The reasons for this lie in the foundation upon which the picture has been built -- a story that is best described as a page from the book of life. Rarely does the screen reflect a tale that is at once so dramatic, so appealing and so true to life as to hold a universal appeal and to strike a responsive chord in the heart of every thinking man and woman.

The age-old problem of the woman who marries a widower and finds herself constantly regaled with the virtues of her predecessor and her conduct compared with that of "my late wife," is treated from a fresh and original angle in the new Pauline Frederick drama. Unexpected and highly interesting plot developments server to keep the dramatic tension at a high pitch through-out while numerous interludes of a pathetic and appealing nature in which a motherless boy figures, provide the picture with the balance that stamps it is 100 per cent entertainment.

STAR HAS PERFECT ROLE

In the role of the first Mrs. Daniel Cabot, Miss Pauline Frederick gives a portrayal that is remarkable for its sincerity and finish. In her dramatic moments, Miss Frederick is admirable; in the lighter scenes, she is irresistible. Miss Frederick's performance in this picture will undoubtedly go down as one of the finest she has contributed to the screen and will be hailed with delight by her legion of admirers.

"Bonds of Love" was produced under the direction of Reginald Barker, one of the screen's foremost producers. Of country-wide popularity, Mr. Barker's screen creation such as "The Crimson Gardenia," Rex Beach's "The Girl from Outside," stand as a monument to his skillful workmanship and keen artistic perception.

THE STORY

The story of "Bonds of Love" is of a woman, who as the second wife of a man who has been devoted to the memory of his first wife, finds that her predecessor's vicious-tongued family continually sings the first wife's praises to the husband and to her; and is made miserable by the knowledge that she was married only to take care of the first wife's child.

Inadvertently, she finds love letters of the first wife from another man. But rather than destroy her husband's blind faith in a beautiful memory, she attempts to quietly secure the letters and burn them. Her action casts suspicion upon herself which she willingly assumes for the sake of the child; but her husband comes into possession of the letters and learning of the circumstances attending his second wife's connection with them, breaks forever the bonds of persecution under which she has been living.

The mother instinct and the lengths to which a woman will go to protect a child even tho (sic) not her own is a vibrant theme of the picture and should form the keynote of your exploitation campaign.

While "Bonds of Love" can be relied upon to please everyone, it will appeal particularly strongly to women. Women will live and feel the tribulations of the heroine because she is essentially human and appealing and because her experiences are shared by women the world over. The women will come out of your theatre remarking, "Isn't it real; so true to life" and no better tribute to a picture could be paid.

ATTRACTING THE WOMAN

Go after the women strong when you play "Bonds of Love." Build your copy around the mother instinct and the troubles of the second wife. You can rely upon the picture to delight every woman in your town and, as an exhibitor, you know that a picture that appeals to the gentle sex is a certain box-office winner. Then, too, "Bonds of Love" embodies a sufficient degree of dramatic interest and heart appeal to win the favor of the men and children.

Feature Pauline Frederick in all your advertising. Her "draw" at the box-office need not be emphasized - you know it by past performances. You can safely bill "Bonds of Love" as one of the star's finest photoplays and one of the most dramatic and appealing in months.

For the promotion of the new Frederick picture, the Goldwyn Service Department has prepared an advertising novelty of striking originality and one that should materially assist exhibitors in packing 'em in during his engagement of the picture. It is the "Bonds of Love" full details are contained on page 8.

The succeeding pages of the Press and Service Book show you how to capitalize on the many dollar-pulling exploitation angles of the picture. If there is anything in the way of additional aid we can render for the exploitation of "Bonds of Love," communicate with us immediately, state just what you require, and we will either prepare the material in New York or will send a service expert direct to your theatre, according to your wishes.

Why "Bonds of Love" Will Get the Crowds

  1. BECAUSE Pauline Frederick is one of the screen's most powerful drawing cards.

  2. BECAUSE The story will appeal to every man and woman in your community.

  3. BECAUSE The picture was directed by Reginald Barker, one of the screen's truly great directors.

Latest Production, First photodrama by Louis Sherwin, Eminent Dramatic Critic, is Story of Mother Love and Family Jealousy

PAULINE FREDERICK's latest Goldwyn picture, "Bonds of Love," by Louis Sherwin, the eminent dramatic critic, is a powerful emotional photodrama worthy of the sterling ability of the versatile star. In none of Miss Frederick's recent pictures, has she been called upon to play the awakening instinct of mother love; but in her new screen vehicle, which comes to the _____ Theatre, on _____, she assumes the role of a second wife who has sincerely grown to love the child of her husband's first wife and is willing to sacrifice herself for the sake of the child's welfare. This unusual combination of self-sacrifice and mother love for another’s child develops into a masterly climax in which Miss Frederick has many opportunities to reveal some of the subtlest touches which have ever been seen in photodramas. Her ability to express suppressed emotional struggle has been shown in her recent pictures, "The Fear Woman" and "The Peace of Roaring River." And in "Bonds of Love," fresh opportunities for disclosing her understanding of a repressed acting occur in every reel.

Miss Frederick's picture was directed by Reginald Barker; and the photographer was Edward Gheller, who recently discovered a new way to achieve clearness in long shots by a clever light arrangement.

The young boy in the picture gives a remarkable performance of the child. Frankie Lee was called upon to assume the part, and he immediately struck up a delightful friendship with  Miss Frederick, which made their many scenes together realistic interpretations of an unusual affection between mother and child.

Some of the scenes in "Bonds of Love" were taken at Santa Catalina Island where Miss Frederick in a racing motor boat preformed a thrilling rescue of the child who had jumped into a launch and was heading for the rocks which guard the narrow to the open sea. Besides the rescue, many other scenes on Cataline Island unfold the sunlit beauty of this garden spot in the Pacific.

LOUIS SHERWIN'S INITIAL PICTURE
Nationally Known Dramatic Critic writes "Bonds of Love"

WHEN a dramatic critic with a national reputation for keen dramatic values turns author, the product of his pen is likely to contain the very points which he has been called upon in the past to criticize adversely. This opportunity has come to Louis Sherwin, who is the author of Pauline Fredericks latest Goldwyn picture, "Bonds of Love," which will be presented at the _____ Theatre, beginning _____.

Mr. Sherwin, before his association with the photodrama, was for eight years the dramatic critic of the New York Globe, in which capacity his fairness as a reviewer resulted in his being barred from certain theaters whose plays he was daring enough to report as unworthy. However, Mr. Sherwin weathered this storm; in fact, his firm stand for honest criticism added immeasurably to his prestige. Now Mr. Sherwin has begun to write in a creative vein, and his first story, "Bonds of Love" has been picturized by Goldwin with Pauline Frederick.

Louis Sherwin was born and educated in England. For several years, he was a close student of dramatic literature; and when he came to American, joined the staff of the Globe. For the past year, Mr. Sherwin has been engaged in a critical capacity at the Goldwyn studios in Culver City, Cal., where his ability as a critic was utilized in the selection of stories suitable for a picturization.

Mr. Sherwin comes naturally by his artistic predilections, as his mother, Amy Sherwin, was a noted English opera singer, whose beautiful voice delighted thousands of music lovers of the past generation.

CHILD ACTOR IN "BONDS OF LOVE"

IN Pauline Frederick's latest Goldwyn picture, "Bonds of Love," which will be shown at the _____ Theatre, beginning _____, the marvelous acting of little Frankie Lee, who plays the adopted son of the star, is one of the features of the production. His part is the most important male role in the story. The child appears in almost a hundred scenes, an assignment with has rarely, if ever, been given to a child. Nevertheless, little Frankie Lee knows how to act. It is uncanny to watch him play the bad boy when his aunt is about, and then find him changed into a little adoring angel in his scenes with Miss Frederick. He understood the part he was playing and required little coaching from the director, Reginald Barker.

Perhaps Frankie Lee's work would not have been quite so spontaneous, had not Miss Frederick won his heart before the filming of the story was begun. They formed a strong friendship on sight, and the little fellow spent many waiting moments at the studio in Pauline Frederick's lap. This accounts for the ease with which the child reveals his love for his new mother in the story of "Bonds of Love."

Frankie Lee is remembered for another excellent performance in the part of the child in "The Westerners." His work in that photoplay called forth the enthusiastic praise of critics throughout the country. And when "Bonds of Love" is shown the promise of this young future star will be seen fulfilled in the finesse displayed in his first Goldwyn picture.

LATEST COSTUMES IN "BONDS OF LOVE"
PAULINE FREDERICK, whose latest Goldwyn picture, "Bonds of Love," will be shown at the _____ Theatre, beginning _____. Miss Frederick wears a black tailored broadcloth suit with a silver fox stole and a business-like tailored hat. Later, she changes to a simple afternoon gown of white linen made in long Russian lines. Another gown is of beaded georgette crepe, with a very dainty girdle and a large georgette hat fairly smothered with ostrich feathers. Each of Miss Frederick's costumes is as individual as the personality that wears them. 

SMALL BUT EXCELLENT CAST PRESENTS "BONDS OF LOVE"
CONCENTRATED ability finds full scope for action in the small, but excellent cast which supports Pauline Frederick in her newest Goldwyn picture, "Bonds of Love" which is scheduled for the _____ Theatre, beginning _____.

As the leading male player, Miss Frederick has a little boy of seven, Frankie Lee, whose interpretation of the dramatic moments of his role reveals marvelous histrionic ability. His ability is a gift as the child has had but one year's experience before the camera.

Betty Schade sincerely interprets the role of a spiteful, scheming woman, who earns her just reward. She plays with Leslie Stuart who has just returned from a two years stay in the trenches of France. Charles Clary assumes the role of dignified lawyer, who in his youth has committed a grievous indiscretion, while Percy Standing, as the star's husband has a sympathetic role with moments that alternate between the gruff and the tender. Kate Lester, as an elderly friend of the family, again is a model of elderly dignity and perfect costuming.

A not unimportant role is assigned to a huge, tawny, good-natured mastiff, whom the little hero rides astride.

But the second Mrs. Cabot, loving her step-child, refused to divulge the secret she had uncovered.

Nevertheless, her husband found out the truth in his own way. Moreover, he learned of his present wife's attempt to conceal her predecessor's short-comings from him. The shock destroyed the halo which he had erected about the first Mrs. Cabot and placed it above the head of her successor.

She is about to say good-bye to the child, when she sees him, from the distance, jump into the motor boat and start out for a joy ride. The governess sees him heading for the rocks that guard the narrow to the open sea, rushes down to the dock, jumps into another boat, and dashes away in pursuit.

The race of the two boats is seen from several angles, the larger and more powerful boar of the governess gradually overtaking the smaller vessel in which the child is seen helpless at the steering wheel. Now the larger boat is veering over to the other, the crowd, which has formed on the dock praying that she may overtake it in time to save it from smashing head-on into the rocks. Suddenly, the larger boat draws alongside the other, the child, standing on the gunwhile, is lifted from his boat into the other by his governess; her boat shoots ahead, crosses the bows of the other in a side circle, while the child's boat dashes into the rocks. The little fellow is brought back to the dock, and his governess weak and overcome with the tension of the past few moments, is lifted out of the boat by the child's anxious father. After this proof of her devotion, the child will not permit her to leave, and she stays, at the earnest solicitation of his father, as the boy's "new" mother.

WHAT BONDS ARE MORE VALUABLE TO YOU, Liberty Bonds; Industrial Bonds; Stock Bonds; or "BONDS OF LOVE"?

"WHAT ARE YOUR BONDS OF LOVE?" Did you marry your husband for money; for social position; for convenience? Or do BONDS OF LOVE bind you to your husband?

"What cements the BONDS OF LOVE between married people? Is it the children; is it pure love; or is it some outside force? See Pauline Frederick in "Bonds of Love" etc.

The above suggested ads are directed mainly toward the woman and are certain to arouse interest and curiosity in "Bonds of Love" and their connection with the new Frederick drama. Use this campaign for results!

CO-OPERATION

The title of the picture and the fact that many exquisite gowns are worn by the female principals, offers excellent opportunity for local merchant cooperation. Get in touch with your local department stores and shops catering to women, and get them to cooperate with a window display. This display should consist of an exhibit of feminine finery and a card reading something like this: "WHY THERE ARE BONDS OF LOVE BETWEEN THE WELL DRESSED WOMAN AND THE BIT STORES." This display should be augmented by scene stills showing the beautiful gowns worn in the picture, a portrait of Miss Frederick and announcement of the picture's showing at your theatre.

Don't fail to take advantage of thedistinctive display ads prepared by the Goldwyn Service Department for the exploitation of "Bonds of Love."

PAULINE FREDERICK, the screen's supreme emotional star, comes to the Blank next week in her latest Goldwyn photoplay, "Bonds of Love." A story of a woman who sacrifices honor and the love of her husband to protect the good name of a child, not her own, this new Pauline Frederick dramatic success brings a tug at the heart; a tear to the eye; and a smile to the lips. An excellent supporting cast including Percy Standing, Charles Clary, little Frankie Lee and Betty Schade.

IT was one of Fate's grim jests that Mrs. Cabot after suffering under the lash of her husband's vicious-tounged family because she "wasn't fit to succeed" the virtuous first Mrs. Cabot should find herself confronted with evidence of the first wife's faithlessness. And with her evidence, she could have stilled forever these vicious tongues -- and destroyed her husband's blind faith in a beautiful memory. But she didn't. Why? See Pauline Frederick in her latest Goldwyn dramatic triumph, "Bonds of Love," directed by Reginald Barker.

SHE was just a woman -- a woman tossed about on the waves of scandal and suspicion. She could have stilled the tongues of scandal and dispelled the shadow of suspicion that had been cast over her but at the price of smirching the good name of a child and ruining the happiness of her husband. What did she do? See Pauline Frederick in her latest Goldwyn photoplay, "Bonds of Love."

IMAGINE a woman who as the second wife of a man devoted to the memory of his first wife is constantly tortured by the admonitions of her vicious-tounged family that she isn't fit to be the wife of a man who was married to so fine and noble a woman has her predecessor. Imagine this woman discovering evidence of a love affair which the first wife secretl had with another man. Imagine the woman, instead of exposing the first wife's escapade, casting suspicion for it, upon herself because ---. Imagination fails to convey the heart throbs and dramatic intensity of this situation. You must see Pauline Frederick in her newest and best Goldwyn drama, "Bonds of Love."

IS a man, devoted to the memory of his dead wife justified in marrying again only for the sake of his motherless child? Is it justice to the second wife; is it a sacrilege to the memory of the first wife? You can't answer this question until you see Pauline Frederick in her latest dramatic triumph, "Bonds of Love," directed by Reginald Barker. It tugs at the heart with its pathos; it electrifies with its drama; it brings a smil to the lips with its delicious humor. It is a picture you will never forget!

THE powerful motor-boat plunged forward with a crash, careening perilously from side to side in its mad dash to destruction. Its lone occupant, little Jimmy Cabot, clung terror-stricken to the throttle, frantically trying to control the powerful monster. Then in the far-away distance appeared another boat swaying recklessly as it cut the water with the speed of a falling star. Over the steering wheel, fear and terror biting into her heart, was the second Mrs. Cabot, Jimmie's foster-mother. The race between life and death was on! See this thrilling spectable in Pauline Frederick's latest dramatic triumph, "Bonds of Love," directed by Reginald Barker. It's a Goldwyn Picture and one of the most dramatic ever screened.

THE guiding light in the house of hate, she was the second Mrs. Cabot and because her presence threatened to usurp their power in the Cabot household, her husband's vicious-tounged relatives breathed into his ear tales of scandal that branded his wife as an impostor, a faithless vandal. And through it all, she smiled, suppressing the anguish that seared her sould like a white hot brand. She had it in her power to still the tongues of scandal, but her lips were sealed. Why? See Pauline Frederick in her latest Goldwyn drama, "Bonds of Love."

NEVER before has the emotional talent of Pauline Frederick been displayed to better advantage than in her latest Goldwyn dramatic success, "Bonds of Love," directed by Reginald Barker. A story of a woman sacrificing honor and love to protest a child's good name, it will tug at your heart  strings as not screen creation has done before. It is dramatic; it is appealing; it is one of the most entertaining photoplays of the year. Dont' miss it!

PAULINE FREDERICK thrilled and delighted you by her emotional acting in "The Peace of Roaring River," "One week of Life," "the Woman on the Index" and other Goldwyn photoplays. Now see her in her latest and best dramatic success, "Bonds of Love," the story of an honorable woman and the happiness it brought. It is Pauline Frederick at her best. you know that that means a solid hour of unequalled entertainment.

FAMILY JEALOUSY IN NEW PHOTOPLAY

But he has in his house-hold a young married couple, his wife's sister and her husband who life off his bounty. It is this young woman who insults Pauline Frederick and makes life as uncomfortable as possible for her. She is afraid that the new woman's superior charms will win the affection of the son and the father. And there the trouble begins, in a charming story, the best that Pauline Frederick has had in some time..

DEAD LETTERS MAKE THRILLING STORY

THE latest Goldwyn production in which Pauline Frederick is starred at the _____ Theatre this week, is introduced with the announcement that is a Reginald Barker production. This is indeed sufficient to vouch for the excellence of the directing, which in every particular is up to the Goldwyn standard.

The cameraman was Edward Gheller, and Hugo Ballin created several new combinations in arranging the interior settings. The story was written by Louis Sherwin, who for eight years was the dramatic critic of the New York Globe.

PICTURE FRAME REVEALS SECRET

A WOMAN'S photograph is a shrine in Pauline Frederick's new Goldwyn photoplay, "Bonds of Love" at the _____ Theatre. The husband and father of the woman's son worships the picture. Since she died, her room has been preserved just as she would have wished it to be. Often and fondly, the widower gazes at the face in the gold frame.

Strangely enough it is that picture which leads to the sudden chage in the current of the story. The governess, who is Pauline Frederick, has won the love of the small son and is jealous of the picture because she loves her husband. She picks up the picture one day, studies it closely and puts it back on the table hastily. The back falls out of it -- and a letter!

The letter is a clue to a secret adventure in the life of the dead wife. Following that clue, Pauline Frederick coes upon a great happiness. This Goldwyn picture is a very fine example of the modern photodrama in which the popular Goldwyn star appears at her magnetic best.

Miss Frederick turned on the gas, shot away from the float, and raced after the other boat at a speed of twenty-five miles an hour. When she drew up along-side the smaller boar, she reached over, swung the boy into her own boat and headed back to shore. The stunt was a daring feat,  and was only possible through Miss Frederick's thorough knowledge of the handling of motor boats.

CRITICAL REVIEWS

PAULINE FREDERICK'S latest Goldwyn picture, "Bonds of Love," by Louis Sherwin, the former dramatic critic of the New York Globe, was presented at the _____ Theatre last night. The story contains many draatic moments which give Miss Frederick an opportunity to disclose new depths in her art. As the governess, and later the step-mother of little Jimmy Cabot (Frankie Lee), Miss Frederick is called upon to show the struggles of a noble woman in many trying situations.

THE power of dead letters over the careers ofliving persons is a tragedy which almost defeats the fine purposes and the noble character of the heroine in Pauline Frederick's dramatic Goldwyn picture, "Bonds of Love," which will be presented at the _____ Teatre.

The letters involved were written by the first wife of the heroine's husband who had enshrined her memory in his heart. A former lover had been the recipient of them. Pauline Frederick, as the second wife, learns of their existence and seeks to destroy them, so that no vestige of dishonor may rest upon the name of the first wife's child, who her successor cherishes as her very own. But in her attempt to secure the incriminating correpondence, the second wife lays herself open to suspicion, with the result that her husband suspects her fidelity and the climax is reached.

Goldwyn Pictures
