October 17, 1925 WINNETKA TALK "Romola" Picture Booked for Center Friday, Saturday Acclaimed as being one of the most beautiful films yet produced, "Romola," the latest Lilian Gish production, comes to Community House next Friday and Saturday. "Romola" is a film version of the famous George Eliot novel of the same name which deals with the exciting life of the Florentines in the days of Savonarola. It was directed by Henry King who was responsible for Miss Gish's previous offering, "I'he White Sister." "Romola," like "The White Sister," was made in Italy, right on the spot called for in the novel--Florence. How- ever, beauty is but one feature of this picture. "Romola" is a story of the love and intrigue of Florence at the top of its power. The character, Romola, is the daughter of the blind scholar, Bardo Bardi. She is loved by Carlo Bucellini (played by Ronald Colman), a painter, but is forced to marry Tito when her father requests it on his deathbed. With power won thus, Tito plots the execution of Savonarola, the religious reformer, whose power over the popu- lace is growing. Romola perceives the perfidy of her husband, leaves him, and, in trying to protect Savonarola, is injured by a mob. Little Tessa takes her to the home which is the sole com- fort for her and her baby. When Tito also enters the home, Romola discovers that he has had a mock marriage with Tessa. The tragedy is completed when Tito, in running from the crowd, jumps into the river and takes Tessa with him as she tries to stop him. Both are drowned. After Romola's cup of sorrow is filled with the execution of Savonarola, she seeks refuge and future happiness in the arms of Carlo. MANAGES REALTY OFFICE C. P. Rorick, formerly with E. S.
