Starring Clara Bow and Gary Cooper
SCREENLAND
July, 1927
"Find the missing "It" in this picture. Has
Clara Bow got "It"? Has Gary Cooper -- or Esther Ralston?
Get in the game. Try to find "It". I give up. "Children
of Divorce" only goes to show that a man never gets anywhere
if he lets things slide -- unless he's a trombone player. And
of course Gary Cooper isn't. Why not? Don't be silly -- a hero
is never a trombone player. Gary's a millionaire. All wrapped
up in Esther Ralston -- and she's wrapped up in him, too, in several
scenes. But there's no satisfying some girls. She wants him
to go to work to win her. All right -- he will. He starts off
fine -- and then he slips. And, of course, Clara Bow is the beautiful
banana peel. First thing he knows, he's married to Clara. That
wouldn't worry most heroes, but Gary is different. Or maybe Clara
is different. You'll have to figure that out for yourself. This
picture is just a polite prize-fight between the two girls with
Gary as the prize.
