Ruth Chatterton comes to the Paramount and Fenway today in "Journal of a Crime", her latest starring vehicle for First National.
The drama depicts the devastating effects of a murder on the conscience of a sensitive and refined woman, although the murder was committed to save her home. Besides this emotional side of the play there is much action, including a murder committed behind the wings of a theatre where the star of a musical revue is shot down during a rehearsal.
Miss Chatterton has the role of the murderess and Adolph Menjou plays opposite her as her husband playwright whose philanderings with the beautiful and popular star of his revue, leads to the tragedy.
