LYCEUM AND TOWN HALL. TO-NIGHT. The screen version of a world-fam-ous opera is a unique feature in picture production and calls for discnninnting treatment and a cast of high order. England comes forward with "The Bohemian Girl," a production which all Britishers may be proud to claim. The settings are particularly fine, especially the woodland scenes for the Gipsy incidents, the old feudal castle (a real live castle, and not a "set") and the picturisation of the vision "I dreamt that I dwelt in marble, halls." The well-known songs of the opera are neatly turned into titles and carry out the atmosphere. Tho piece de. resistance is the castle. Every player is one of London's leading actors. 252
