EMPRESS THEATRE
“CONGORILLA.” “Congorilla,” the only talking picture entirely made in the African jungle, with Mi’, and Mrs. Mai'tin Johnson, brings to the audible screen for the first time the roars, shrieks and cries of not only primitive savages and wild animals, but the unexplored wilderness of Central Africa is shown in all its hectic splendour. Rivers alive with rhinos and crocodiles, wildernesses vibrant with man-eaters, forests shrieking with savage cries and treacherous mountains hysterical with shouts of gorillas are realistically brought to you in “Congorilla,” thanks to science and the daring of the world’s most fearless explorers. Incidentally, the natural sounds record of the jungle will furnish innumerable surprises. Theories are blasted. Claims of writers of animal stories are likewise jolted. The film is to be shown at the Empress Theatre to-night and Monday. and a special matinee will be held on Monday, beginning at 3.40.
