AMUSEMENTS.

IcVERYBODYC PICTURES, CONSTANCE TA LAIADO (0 AIONDA Y. Constance Talinadge is waging war on what alio terms “mcn-maclo” pictures. “I don’t think men directors got the woman's viewpoint,” she allows. “Some day I am going to have a woman director anil no men in my cast except a leading man ami perhaps a male villain, and wo will produce a picture strictly front thy woman's viewpoint.” Constance has tint resorted to this dire banishment of men in her latest picture, “Her Might of Romance.” which First National will offer ai the 1* riiteos.fi Theatre next Alonday. In fact, there are more men in this love mix-up involving an English nobleman, a money-lender and a rich American girl than there are women. Constance Talmadgo is of particular interest to women. She is doing something entirely new for a woman in screen work. She is replacing men in leading comedy roles. For the first time film fun is being given the women's viewpoint. .Vo man could over got it. This is proven l»y Constance’s fan letter--, 90 per cent, of which are from women. Two big special attractions will lie presented next week. On Wednesday next tlie great English drama, of the sea “Harbour Lights” and starring Tom A Too re and Jsobel T’.lsoni will fie the special attraction. On Thursday next the long looked for picture which has caused a sensation everywhere “If Winter Comes” will he screened for one night onlv.
