JAMES OLLIVER CUR WOOD. MONDAY.
A worthy sucessor to James Olliver Curwood’s “Nomads of the North” and “Back to God’s Country' is “The Golden Snare” by the same popular writer. This remarkable photodrama with a compelling, vital, throbbing plot, fairly smacks of the charm and mystery, and primitiveness of the Far North country amid which the scenes are laid. Lewis Stone, as a member of the Boy a I North-west Mounted selected to bring back “dead” or “alive” Bram Johnson, long wanted fugitive from justice, is the featured player and gives a wonderful characterisation. Wallace Beery plays the hunted Bram Johnson. Ruth Renick portrays the Girl Celie around whom the mystery of the golden snare and the madman of tho barrens centres. Others in the cast are Melbourne MacDowell, Wellington Plavter, Francis MacDonald and Baby Esther Scott. A beautiful romance is interwoven in this thrilling tale of the snow country. The photography is remarkable. Night in the Arctic, a raging blizzard, Bram Johnson driving his pack of savage wolfdogs—these are a few of the striking scenes which will linger long in the memory. The supporting subjects oil Monday arc: Rathe Gazette (Topical). “When the Whale was Joimhed, (comedy), and the latest Rathe Review, full of interesting items.
