STANDS 15 GREATEST PCTURE Again King Louis XIII holds sway! Not in France this time, however, but at the Iris theater, where Douglas Fairbanks’ new picture, “The Three Musketeers” began a four days run today. Students of history as well as stu- dents of lterature, especially -nor- shippers of the shrine of Alexander Dumas, will get a great deal of satis. faction out of this picture, dealing as it does with the history of the French monarchy during the reign of Louis xmII. No more us production has ever been présented on the screen than the Fairbank's version of Du- mas’ most popular novel. Few lb- erties have been taken with the story, and we are told that what might be conceived by some to be interpola- tions are but authentic additions from the Memoirs of D’Artagnan, which is said to be the original, source from which Dumas obtained the material for his immortal story. ‘The screen adoption of this gripping film is attributed to Edward Kno- block, one of the most successful of our present day playwrights. He has prepared a vehicle which preserves all of the dramatic qualities of the book and at the same time gives Douglas Fairbanks the opportunity to do the greatest worlke of his career. As D'Ar- tagnan, the impulsive, fighting Gas- con, who dared to cross Richelieu, the Power behind the throne of France, we Bee a new Fairbanks, He brings to this role all of the dash that it de- serves, and at tho same time imbues the character with human qualities that will establish the part as a piece of classic acting on the’screen, In directing the piece, Fred Niblo has stamped himself as a man of rare ability. Although the picture is ten reels long, there is not one moment when it drags, which is a splendid tribute to the direction, As the scenes flash by, one painting after another is unfolded upon the startled gaze of the audience. Some of the most interesting results ever obtained with a motion picture camera are shown in this feature, There are several episodes where stereoscopic effects are flashed on the screen, and lightings at all times are highly pleas- pai Librarians In polska, ing and often startling in their beauty. who photographed this production, is a true artist.
