PQU.ARD’S P!CTURES.
MONTAGU LOYE—WEDNESDAY' On Wednesday next Pollard’s will screen a big western Drama entitled “The Rough Neck” featuring Montagu Love and Bolrbara Castleton. “The Rough Neck” a ne.w World Film dramatic feature production,- is described as “a bang-up, fast-moving melodrama, packed full of action, surprises and thrills, and with a man-scrap in it that has not been equalled anywhere for willingness and punch.” It is a picture quite out of the ordinary, with a unique love motif, and an unusually good role for the hero, played by Montagu Love, who appears as the “rough neck” of the story. In his methods of wooing Masters, the hero shows that there are more ways of winning a woman than by buying her chocolates and treating her like a chocolates and treating her like like a piece of egg-shell china. Good dramas have been scarce lately, but “The Rough Neck” makes up for it in more ways than one. A big supporting programme will also be screened. On Thursday Pollards ■ will present a big sporting picture starring Margarita Fisher in “Ejut up Your Hands”.
PICTURES. DOROTHY • GISH-TO-NIOHT. Mr McLean presents to-night “Turning the. Tables.” Dorothy Gish has been taken in hand by the authorities again. In one of her earlier releases “Peppy Polly,” you remember she was confined to a reformatory. “Turning the Tables,” the Paramount-Artcraft Picture shows her as a lively inmate of a sanitarium. Only she not being satisfied to pass life in a padded cell, has tpriied the tables on a new nurse and while she is wearing the cap and insignia of a nurse, thp real nurse is under lock and hey. “Turning the Tables” is a rollicking love stpry and lots of that unique Gish humour is interwoven with the plot. It gives a striking illustration of the way in which perfectly sane and normal people are “railroaded” to private asylums by people who want to put them out of the way. Also further chapters of the* serial “Wolves of Kultur.”
