	The Incomparable Compson
		Compson tugs at the viewer's heartstrings and draws forth a wave of sympathy for the poor, hopeless Mae who has been beaten down by the Fates.
		Compson was almost destitute when she landed a role in the Pathe serial "The Terror of the Range." It was during this time that she began to make a lot of contacts with the up and coming stars of the day such as Rudolph Valentino, Bebe Daniels, Gloria Swanson, John Gilbert and others.
		Compson rebounded, however, and was cast in such successes as "The Big City" with Lon Chaney and "The Docks of New York" with George Bancroft.

	What is Hollywood Really Like? (1922) by Betty Compson
		Betty Compson says good-bye to her mother before going for a gallop through the California hills.
		Editor's Note: The title of this is article Is a question that seems to be uppermost in the minds of picture fans.
		It occurred to us that Betty Compson, the author of "MATRIMONY IS A CAREER," which appeared in an earlier issue of "Movie Weekly," was especially suited to answer this national question.

	Movie Info for Paths to Paradise on MSN Movies
		Though Betty Compson is top-billed in Paths to Paradise, the film's real star is the ever-dapper, ever-unflappable Raymond Griffith.
		Though they escape scot-free, Compson has pangs of jealousy, whereupon the ever-obliging Griffith cheerfully agrees to sneak the jewels back into the safe, all the while keeping the dunderheaded Kennedy in the dark.
		Existing prints of the silent Paths to Paradise end with Compson and Griffith making their escape in a zany car chase; our knowledge of the film's actual outcome is predicated on an existing script and cutting continuity.
