POLLARD’S PICTURES,
H. B. WARNER—TO-NIGHT.
Pollards will screen tc-night the big star feature “Felix o‘Day”, adapted from the celebrated novel by F. Hopkinson Smith. The intense and forceful acting of 11. B. Warner, in his great starring vehicle “Felix O'Day,” along makes this a worth while drama. As the young husband, whose wife has deserted him for a faithless friend, and who consequently swears a vow that he shall know no peace until he has has visited revenge on his home’s despoiler. Warner’s work carries him to dramatic heights. There is tremendous power in the scenes between the three, and in the climax where O’Day is preparing to administer punishment with his bare hands, only to have his victim taken out of his hands by a stroke of providence, Warner shows his superiority in his handling of the heavy drama. ITc has given us nothing greater than his characterisation of Felix O’Day in this strong adaptation of the famous novel by Hopkinson smith. A two part Comedy and an educational will support the star picture.
