Neptune’s Daughter.
A treat is evidently in store for picture lovers when “ Neptune’s Daughter,” the marvellous photo-play, with Annette Kellerman, the Australian Venus, as its star, finally reaches New Zealand. The Dominion tour of this great picturedrama has been repeatedly postponed owing to the tremendous furore it hascreated in Australia. At the present time three copies of “ Neptune’s Daughter” are touring the Commonwealth. The New Zealand tour, it is now stated, will positively open in Wellington on the first of October. Although the story of “ Neptune’s Daughter ” takes two and a-half hours to unfold, the interest is intense throughout, Kellerman is shown “at home ” in the water as only Annette Kellerman can be, surrounded with a cast which adequately brings the pictured story vividly before the public. The picture was filmed in the Bermuda Islands, where Shakespeare is supposed to have laid the scene ot “ The Tempest." The beauty of the Bermudan shore under and above water, together with the startling developments of the story, is said to make ” Neptune’s Daughter” something entirely different from anything that has heretofore been exhibited on the screen. The film had a record run of teu months in New York. s
