IN “THE TEMPEST.”
TOWN HALL, TONIGHT.
“The Tempest” at the Town. Hall tonight is not only distinguished by the cast, including 'Camilla Horn and Louis Wolheim, with that master of dramatic presentation, John Barrymore, at the head, but it depicts a stirring and thrilling period of revo-, lution in Russia that makes it an epic of screen dramas. If Russia were not great, in its sorrows, passions, literature, music and art, it would hot sway the thoughts of men as it does. If' tliis picture were. not great it could not have won a universal, 'acclaim from critics and press, as it has. “The World” said it was “the finest, most genuine motion picture John Barrymore had ever made, and one of the loveliest and most glowing of dramas. For adventure, 'breathless intrigue and suspense, reckless abandon of daring, tempestuous passions, glory, tears, love and laughter, conflict and tragedy, it is superbly made and supremely acted, A groat drama, which no one should miss.
