Uncommon Opinions from the Nation's Elect in the Art of the Screen!!!
THE BELOW EXPRESSIONS ARE FROM LEADERS OF THOUGHT WHO SERVE ON THE FAMOUS rOARD CF CRITIQUE OF THE NATIONAL BOARD OF REVIEW AND THEIR APPROVAL IS
HIGHEST POSSIBLE LNDCHSEMENT
Mrs. Alexander Fromhold Lecturer on
French history and so especially qualified to speak
from angle of French History. During the war
translator for the federal secret service of seized
documents: -
"Aside from its great dramatic appeal and
artistic beauty, the fiim points a striking moral
on the inevitable consequences of extravagance
and excesses. The milliner's apprentice who
plunged into the dissipations of the court, wast-'
ing money wrung from the very people from
whom she herself had come, brings down her
own ruin. As an historical document, it is of
great interest and value, being so vivid and true
to its time. As a student of French history, I
specially enjoyed the subtle and typical situa
tions which might have sprung from the letters
of Mme. de Sevigne herself."

"A vivid and convincing portrayal of a pe
riod of never failing interest. Such a picture
will bring history home to those who never read
Taine or Carlyle. Teaches the harrowing result
of immorality and anarchy. It would be bene
ficial for people to sefe what a bloody revolution
is like. The picture is the answer to red propa
ganda" Kate Jordan Member of Author's League

the magnet which has attracted thousands wherever rhewn.
Not to see "Patsicn," with its cast of five thousand at the

neat week.
