OPERA HOUSE.
About Manui, daughter of a Maori chieftain, and her love for Mara, warrior of an enemy tribe, •is that saga of New Zealand laid in the days before the coming of the white man, "Hei Tiki," which screens at the Opera House. Mara impersonates the war god to whom Manui is to be sacrificed, and not the least thrilling sequences in the film are those showing the lovers' flight from Manui's people. Ingredients of the associate film.
"Forged Passport," are touches of humour, and a good deal of action involving speeding petrol wagons, a time bomb, and a totally unsuspected villain. "Forged Passport" is a swiftmoving story about the smuggling of aliens into America across the Mexican frontier.
