been transferred to the motion picture
screen and 4s being shown at the Circle
theatre today and Monday. - l -
Everybody knows Kaatmova, and
most everybody knows that her stage
presentation of Nora, tha leading
character in "A Doll's Kouse." has
made both the star and the play tre
mendously popular. For this reason
the celebrated Russian actress decided
to x-roduce a film version of the great
drama which-planted the first germ
that developed Into the tremendous
forward movement for women the
world over, "and resulted in woman
kind occupying the place they do today
In the United States In political, indus
trial' and economic circles, ''--i;;'
In order that she might not be ham
pered by the individual ideas of others.
Naslmova thought beat to plcturize this
drama through a. producing company
of her own selection, and as a. result
"A Doll's House" is the first of her
productions for United Artists Cbrpor
atlon. - - " 1 c
: Naslmova plays the same role In the
screen version of this famous play, as
she did on the stage, that of Nora,
