AMUSEMENTS
POLLARD’S PICTURES. To-night Pollard’s will screen for the last time the big Alack Bennett comedy spectacular melodrama “A Small Town Idol.” On Friday and Saturday evenings and at the matinee on Saturday an all British picture a British Broad west production “The Romance of a Movie Star,” will be screened. Unusual interest attaches to the screening of “The Romance of a Movie Star,” a British production starring Violet Hopson and Stewart Rome, two of Britain’s most prominent screen artists. The story is written round the life of a motion picture actress, Vaima George, who gets her “chance” in a remaffable manner through being arrested as a thief, though innocent. The spectacle of stars at work in a. big studio adds to the attractiveness of the production, and the intimate glimpses of the studio life show by means of a convincing story that the film players are as human as the theatre-goers, with the same joys and sorrows, hopes and fears as the man who simply looks on at the screen.
