Cecil B. DeMille starring William Boyd
and Elinor Fair
mam
Here is a real drama, poignant, suspenseful, alluring, deftly woven together
By a master producer the wonder picture of the year. A tremendous pict
ure of modern Russia, romantic yet more than a romance, melodramatic, yet
vastly bigger than mere melodrama a human story filled with tragedy, ap
peal, humor, remarkably gripping, swift-moving, fascinating, absorbing. In
comparably the greatest film achievement of the deeadeCecil B. DeMille's
screen masterpiece.
