EMPIRE THEATRE
Every now and then film producers break away from the conventional style and try something new. In “ The Big Blockade,” the new feature to be presented at the Empire Theatre to-morrow, a new screen technique is applied—in tliis instance, the blending of orthodox fictional technique with that of the ‘ documentary.” The film was made with the co-operation of the Ministry of Economic Warfare, and is the thrilling story of Britain’s stranglehold on Germany and German-occupied territories. Leslie Banks heads the large cast, and also in the film is the famous American journalist and news commentator, Quentin Reynolds.
