Griffith, who in the days of the screen's infancy attracted attention by "The Birth of a Nation" and "Orphans of the Storm," is the one man in the'profession who always makes a picture different from the others, and not only different, bnt brilliant. His latest effort, an essay at that great love tragedy, Paolo and Francesea. is entitled "Drums of Love," and is being pre-, Bented at the Grand Theatre this week. Mary Philbin as the wife, is a completely new Mary Philbin from the quiet and untroubled creature of former pictures.
