A MELODIOUS COMEDY
AL JOLSON’S RE-APPEARANCE. “HALLELUJAH I’M A TRAMP.” ■ There are some new departures in the universally-known Al Jolson’s remarkable picture, “Hallelujah I’m a Tramp, which opens at the Grand Theatre on Tuesday and Wednesday. One of the most interesting features of the picture is the “photographic music.” All previous forms of music on screen or stage have been thrown overboard and “photographic music” runs throughout the picture and constantly moves, with the story. The dramatic action, the flow of photography and the humour and pathos .of the characters of the story will be inherent in the music. In other words, whole scenes will be played to photographic music and lyrics. The popular Ralph Morgan, Harry Langdon and Chester Conklin are in support.
