McLEAN’S PICTURES.
“THE GREAT GAME,” TUSEDaV. I Referring to the picture to be screened by Mr .McLean on Tuesday evening, the New Zealand “Herald” Auckland says:—‘Tor those who like a sporting j picture with a good horse race, and a | stirring tight, the English film, “The Great Game.’’ which drew record attendances to all sessions' on Saturday, provides all the essentials of a typical Nat Gould story. The famous boxer, domhardier Wells, makes an admit able lero, for his tine physkpie and clean lighting methods provide a striking I contrast to the underhand tricks employed by his enemies. He is stvn as the son of a wealthy aristocrat, who ; objects, to him marrying an actress. I ’the villain contrives, by bribes and i trickery, to cause the hero’s horse to j lose the Derby.’ The shock kills' the ! father, and the son lights his way to | fame and fortune. The English Derby i is shown, and a good six-round light in : which Wells accounts for his man with , a knock-out in the sixth round, and sub;o(|iicntly wins the lady of his choice.” ''jeeid prices will prevail, upstairs fs id, downstairs Is Id, children as usual.
