Clara Williams is in her first stairing Triangle film "The Criminal," which is to be screened at the Opera House tonight, j Miss Williams, with her dark eyes and hair, is ideal for the role of the unfortunate Italian emigrant girl, and she plays with great power and pathos. The central situation of the play has to do with the kidnapping of a baby, and the suspicion, that it cast upon the heroine, who has adopted a poor little waif. William Desmond, as Donald White, the young writer, shows a saving sense of humor which lightens the heavy tragedy surrounding his little girl friend. The photography is in Triangle's best style.
