The Paramount feature releases scheduled for May 14 are the Cosmopolitan Production, “The Beauty Shop,” with Raymond Hitchcock and an all-star cast, and Jack Holt and Bebe Daniels in “North of the Rio Grande.”

“The Beauty Shop” is a picturization of one of the most famous Broadway comedy successes of recent years. Mr. Hitchcock, who plays the leading role, was seen in it on the stage for nearly a year in New York and on tour in many of the other large cities. It was written by Channing Pollock and the late Rennold Wolf, famous dramatic editor of the New York Morning Telegraph. Doty Hobart wrote the scenario, and Edward Dillon directed.

Supporting Mr. Hitchcock are: Louise Fazenda, featured in many Paramount-Mack Sennett comedies; Billy B. Van and James J. Corbett, who now compose one of the best known vaudeville teams; Montagu Love, well known to Paramount audiences; Madeline and Marion Fairbanks, famous as “the Fairbanks twins;” Diana Allen, and Laurence Wheat.

“North of the Rio Grande,” in which Jack Holt and Bebe Daniels are co-starred, is an adaptation of Vingie E. Roe’s novel, “Val of Paradise.” Will M. Ritchey wrote the scenario and Joseph Henabery directed.

Supporting the co-stars are Charles Ogle, Alec B. Francis, Will R. Walling and others.
