CRYSTAL PALACE.
TOLSTOY'S "RESURRECTION." With a pair of first-rato actors, John Eole-i und Lune Velez, playing tho leading roles, and a etory of emotional and dramatic appeal only as the great Russian novelist Tolstoy could create, "Resurrection," the Universal 6uper-productlon which will start on Saturday at tho Crystal, must mrely rank as one of tho season's outstanding films. It is common nowadays to Bpeak in extravagant language of many films which do not warrant it, but if any person who sees "Resurrection" can declare that ho or she was not etiired to tho very depths by the intense love, tho abject misery, tho vivid reality, or tho noblo sacrifice, then that person mint almost rank as inhuman. Greta Garbo'e third talkie, "Inspiration," which is showing this week at the Crystal Palace, is hailed as her greatest triumph.
