. 5] = THE BEMIDJI DAILY, PIONEER | TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 15, 1921 THE PRINCESS OF NEW YORK" ' AT ELKO THEATER TONIGHT David Powell, a pop.ulnr player With. American motion picture audi es, has a role of great dramatic trength in “The Princess of New ork,”. a British-made. Paramount | picture which appears at the: Elko theater tonight and Wednesday. . “4'4The Princess of New York” is a aghghtful picture, based on the novel of the same name written by Cosmo amilton. 1t was direéted by Donald Grisp ‘and adapted by.Margaret Turn- “bull, ik % The plot has to do with the adven- tures of an American heiress daughter of a steel king on a trip to Furope, involving an introduction to London society. With the atmosphere centered ‘around English scenes, the facilities of the English studio, located in the heart of London, were especially suit- ed for the filming of this story. Some of England’s best known landlords are incorporated in the plot which includes a trip to classic Oxford and scenes on the banks of the Thames + and about the Houses of Parliament. “THE FOOLISH AGE” AT THE ELKO THURSDAY AND FRIDAY The demand by the public that patronizes motion -‘pictures is - for comedy drama with a real story in- terwoven—with the bits that make them laugh. There is a sharp reaction from the heavier subjects, from tra- gedy, from straight drama and from fulfilled in Doris May's first starring vehicle, “The Foolish Age,” produged by R-C Pic- tures, which comes to the Elko the- -ater next Thursday and Friday. “DAUGHTER OF THE DON” AT ; THE REX THEATER FRIDAY “Daughter of the Don,”- which comes to the Rex theater Friday next is a tale of lower California_at the time of the Mexican war. It is a r markable picture filled with thrills and suspense and is a faithful pi turization of the people and cond tions of those days when the sturd, pioncer was wresting: part of the vi gin territory from the grip of nature and -turning it into prosperous cities and towns and productive farm lands. A great deal of trouble and expense was gone to by the company produc- ing this picture, in order to procure proper atmosphere and detail. An ex- vert was engaged to delve into that little known portion of American his- tory, which treats of those days, and faithful reproduction of the gowns worn by the women and costumes of the men were made. It was necessary to secure proper military arms, as an engagement is shown between the Spanish General Pio Pico and Gener- al Fremont’s men which resulted in the changing of the history of the United States by securing that terri- tory for American annexation. Contrasted with modern warfare this engagement .is remarkably edu- cational, for it shows tae strides that have been made in the past 73 years. ! 'The picture will be found not only intensely interesting from a dramatic standpoint but highly cducational as well, and should be seen by every good, American, for it portrays a little known chapter of American history. POLA NEGRI TRIUMPHS | AGAIN IN “GYPSY BLOOD” | What may be rightly termed one| of the most finished and artistic pro- ductions yet seen on the screen is the foreign film, “Gypsy Blood,” adapted —from Prosper Merimee’s immortal | “Carmen,” which opened an engage- ment at the Rex theater last night. Pola Negri is seen in the role of it La Carmencita, and this latest vehicle demonstrates that this wonderful star from across the ocean is an iartist of the first rank, , In “Passion;” in which Pola Negri made her debut on the. American soreen, she was & marvel. In “Gypsy iBlood” she portrays the fiery little! cigarette girl as the role has never| been portrayed before, s Twice before has “Carmen’ been | filmed, but the eye was not deceived | then. This time, however, a photo-| drama that deserves to be called an| epic of the screen has been accom-| plished. " Pola Negri is a great cmotional actress. With fire and ‘temperament the Polish star throws hersell into the part so.realistically that she ac- Jtually seems. to be living. it. This triumph of the motion picture iis shared by Ernst Lubitsch, a wizard of production, who also directed Pola Negri in her yprevious success, and by the members of the cast support-| ing the star. Hary Liedtke gives a | ‘splendid * characterizattion of the Spanish dragoon who falls a victim | to the charms of the alluring Car-! mencita. ¢ .. The photography.is magnificent, as is the general technique of the pro- duction. American producers can learn a big lesson from it. Re-edited and ve-titled by Myroni M.
