PRINCE EDWARD
“THE NIGHT OF LOVE” In 'The Night of Love,” George iFtzmaurice’s production for Mr. Goldwyn, which is now being shown at the Prince Edward Theatre, and in which Ronald Colman is co-featured with Miss Banky, the latter was c ailed upon to take a series of fencing lessons, in order that she might experience the proper mood during the fencing episodes of the picture in which she takes no actual part. Every day for a week or two a fencing teacher taught her how to spar with swords, until she became adept in the art. Ronald Colman, the hero, and Montagu Love, who plays the villain’s role, also took fencing lessons. Several important scenes in “The Night of Love” call for duelling between the hero and villain, and both became expert adversaries through their off-stage training. Miss Banky feels that though she used her fencing lessons in this particular picture only indirectly her next role may be different. Which goes to show the movies are looking ahead.
