EXCELLENT FILM AT MUNICIPAL THEATRE.
lhxs evening will see the final presentation at the Municipal Theatre or the film, “The Woman Disputed,” the outstanding motion picture pinduction which Ims drawn large crowds to the Theatre. Norma Talmadge, as Mary Ann Wagner, an outcast, is superb in her acting. A shooting affray in her apart-ment—-where she narrowly escapes being arrested for murder—is the instrument of inti'oduction into her life of Paul and Nika, the two army officers, who, together with Mary, create a triangular drama that demands the highest standai*d of acting. The whole or the story is excellently portrayed, while appropriate music is well synchronised with the film. The rendering of the entr'acte, “Lucia di Lammermoor,” is a musical masterpiece. Mr Gladstone T-Till conducts tiie musical interlude, with Mr Lilly at the orgah.
