It contains part of "Tandeleyo." & grim tragedy, deep pathos, and a real- ism that has never before been trans- lated so successfully to the screen." Incidentally, I have failed to find record of a single critic that has not been enthusiastic over it. You may be interested in knowing that the film shadows of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," War, Famine, Pestilence and Death, ride again over familiar ground in this production. All of which is to say that the battle grounds made famous by Rex Ingram's "The Four Horsemen," was utilized in a like manner for "The Big Parade." You know, of course, that John Gil- bert plays the lead and that John even outdoes himself. Also that Rene Adoree as the refugee heroine really enacts her own thrilling experiences when she was driven out of Belgium by the German invaders, escaping from Brussels in a frieght car. Rene was born in France. * *x x "The Nut," a Douglas Fairbanks feature, returns for a re-showing on Thursday. Some of you will remember the film which was produced when Doug was at the height of his populari- ty. It's clever and typically Doug and a comedy-drama. x * x "Sailor Izzy Murphy," which will be shown on Friday and Saturday, is a farce with George Jessel in the title role. It is rough-house and slap-stick de luxe with Jessel as the nattiest of perky and passionate perfumery sales- man, ecstatic over two things--his be- lief in the "Dream of Love" perfume that he sells and love for the unknown young lady whose picture decorates the bottles. When one of Izzy's custo- mers sees his own daughter's face on the bottle things begin to happen. What ?--oh, just--things! LECTURES AT MUSEUM A free illustrated lecture on "Sun Dance of the Blackfoot Indians" will be given Saturday, November 26, at 3 p. m,, in the James Simpson theater of Field Museum of Natural History. Walter McClintock of Pittsburgh is the lecturer. The public is invited. This is the ninth of the free Saturday after- noon lectures being given at Field Museum this autumn, Varsity's New Vitaphone Screen Only One of Kind A large force of workmen under the supervision of a "Soundtone" engineer from the Eastern laboratories of the Vitaphone company has completed the rearrangement and rewiring of the Varsity theater for Vitaphone. The result of their work has placed the Varsity theater in the unique position of being the only theater in America where the horns conveying the sound from the projection booth are placed directly behind the screen on which the picture is shown. In all other theaters, these horns are placed at various points in the auditorium, none being behind the screen. In the case of the Varsity theater, after numerous tests, the en- gineer decided to depart from the set rule and test the efficacy of placing the horns directly in front of the audience so that the sound would be conveyed straight out into the auditorium. The experiment was so successful, after tests extending for several weeks, that the Vitaphone organization will in fu- ture initial installations use this method. Manager Elliott announces an early re- sumption of Vitaphone presentations at the Varsity as soon as suitable "acts" can be secured. THE VARSITY Lillian Gish, greatest of all emotional screen actresses, comes to the Varsity theater Monday in her latest success, "Annie Laurie." In marked contrast to the pensive and wistful heroines of "La Boheme," "The Scarlet Letter" and other plays in which her fragile beauty appealed to the sympathies of the audience, Miss Gish is rather a gorgeous creature in this, her newest role. The story of "Annie Laurie" has to do with the historic massacre at Glen- coe in which the Campbell and the MacDonald clans came to death grips in their frantic struggle for supremacy in one of the strangest conflicts in all history. With this episode as a back- ground the author has woven a stirring drama that might almost be classed as the film epic of Scotland. Famous old castles, including the historic Maxwelton, were reproduced with hordes of kilted warriors, gaily caparisoned courtiers and chiefs. you.
