\ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1925 ye THE SEATTLE STAR JES aes TheWorld: S Greatest great pictures. Bebtnd the scenes must be the master mind directing the whole and harmonizing the parts, Moving Picture Director directs for WARNER BROTHERS The next Ernst Lubitsch Picture will be an adap- tation of Oscar Wilde's "LadyW indermere'sFan” —<a play that has thrilled and amused thousands. Production has been started by Mr. Lubitsch with a cast of screen favorites, THE AMERICAN SCREEN long needed a great pto- ducing genius who would lead the industry to the attainment of its marvelous opportunities; to the realization of its ideals. The man needed appeared in the person of Ernst Lubitsch. LUBITSCH brought to the Screen new vision and new courage. He exposed shams and shallow notions about pictures. He saw that all too often that which was heralded as “greatness” was merely “bigness,” with mob scenes and lavish settings, wholly lacking in faithful presentation of the deeper . passions and’ impulses of human life. LUBITSCH understands human emotions in all their subtleties. And because his understanding is unerring, he directs the picturization of life with masterful fidelity. Whether directing a tremen- dous stage creation or a simple heart-touching drama from everyday life, Lubitsch develops with amazing finesse the utmost dramatic power in every situation. LUBITSCH’S masterful simplicity makes Lubitsch pictures understandable tothe childmindand delight- ful to the sophisticated man and woman of the world. The new Warner Classics scintillate with the genius of great authors, brilliant actors and actresses and directors of international renown. The name “Warner Classic” is a guarantee of a picture you will thoroughly enjoy.
