"WAY DOWN EAST"
' , (Review.)
Sitting for two hours ' and a half,
tensely interested, sometimes laugh
ing, sometimes tearful eyed, Casino
patrons last night enjoyed "Wav
Down East," the super screen drama,
produced by D. W. Griffith. The
j storjy as adapted to the. screen is a
mixture of comedy and pathos.' It la
a human document as well as a photo
play. It is life with Its tragedy and'
its joys, its thrills and its drab mo
ments. Griffiths, tho producer poet has tan
'en an old, old storyand made a clas
sic of it, so gripping that it easily
' ranks as one of the two or three great
pictures of the year.
i Anna Moore, a poor relation goes to
live with rich relatives in the city.
Lennox Sanderson, mnn-about-town,
who specializes in charming women,
sees her and falls for her charm. She
is something different and his jaded
appetite is revived. ,
Under cover of a mock marriage, he
accomplishes her ruin and then heart
lessly turns her adrift. A child is born
which dies shortly after birth. .
Anna is kicked out by one of the
"holier than thou" brigade in the per
son of the landlady. Anna seeks wor.1:.
She finds it at Squire Bartlett's.
But wagging tongues loose her dark
past and she is denounced and eject-
fed by the Squire, nqt, however, un
til she has won the heart of Seth Hoi
comb, one of the Bartlett household.
Anna is turned out at the moment
the man who caused her undoing is
a guest at Squire- Bartlett's table.
Tense drama is just here enacted.
Anna tells the other half of the story.
Seth tries to kill the breaker q(. wom
en's hearts. ,
Out into a driving storm goes the
frail Anna. Seth and the whole
countryside seeks her. Finally Anna
falls exhausted upon the Ice of a rlv-
er. Then the ice goes out. Anna in
ert lies upon a great ice cake as it
drifts towards the fallfc where death
lurks.
The 'rescue scene Is so vivid that
'. one forgets one is viewing a picture.
It seems actual life. Yes, Seth rescues
Anna, leaping from floating. Ice cake
to floating ice cake just above the
falls-. ' '
Real absolutely, it is real. The
8:15
fight between Seth and Lennox San
derson is so actual that cries escape
the Hps of the spectators and many
hands are clenched.
That is the story briefly, side lights
eliminated. But it is not the story.
Only a Griffith can tell tho story.
The picturlzation is wonderfully,
beautifully done.
'Lillian Gish who plays the role of
Anna Moore, Lowell -Sherman who
takes the character of Lennox San
derson, Porter Strong as eth Hoi
comb, George Neville as the country
constable carry forward the story by
means of high art.
'But 'the entire cast Is worthy of
mention. ,
,A six-piece drchestra which accom
panies the production, sympathetical
ly interpreted the scenes of the play.
"Wlay Down East," will be Bhown
again at the Casino theater tonlgnf,
(Sunday and Monday.
