AMUSEMENTS.
POLLARD’S riCTURES. WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. On Wednesday next Pollards are screening June El vide and Montagu Love in a World Drama entitled “The Quickening Flame,” and on Thursday next Margarita Fisher in “Molly of the Follies”. Two favourite stars in June .Elvidge and Montagu Love appear in “The Quickening Flame,” :■ story of domestic flurries and misunderstanding. The theme is the old saw “marry in haste and repent at leisure,” and the moral is pointed in graphic manner by melo-dramatic .situations well conceived and carried out. Tin picture has all the elements of good entertainment, to which is. added the fine work for which the two stars are responsible. On Thursday Margarita Fisher wil' be starred in “Molly of the Follies.” We have had many pictures of stage and theatrical life, hut not ninny stories have (seen produced which deal with the intimate life of the freaks and performers in a side show, “Afolh of the Follies”' with Margarita Fisher in the title role, throws som<> interesting spotlights on the life and loves of these strange people, revealing then •as just and human as we are. Somehow one doesn’t associate a hoarded lady or a human submarine with romance or love, yet they have theii inings with Dan Cupid just the same as everyday folks. “Molly” f a nice clean story, well produced, with plenty of fresh entertainment value and should prove a popular picture.
