In this farcical sketch John Barrytore des his most strenuous work. He
come off very las Anatol and justifies his selection for the role. While he
may not be exactly the Anatol, that the author had in mind, he is probably
better fitted for the role than any other actor in this country. He certainly
loks the part and he acts with a quiet sense of humor, it not always with
the fish that might be desired. Oddly enough, though, ne failed to get a
single laugh at the dress rehearsal when, after protesting that he did not aus¬
pect Hilda, he added; I KNOW she is untrue to me." That line is too good
to be wasted. Oswald Yorke is excellent as Max, who plays a rather thankless
part in The Affairs of Anatol.
