It is quite an unusual story andas the cards are shufied and dealt the various hands disolve into the action on the screen. For sheer originalty of treatment, this drama is a noteworthy picture and should be seen by all movie fans. The supporting dramas, comedies, and war budgets are quite up to standard, and will maintain interest throughout. The pi blic aie cordially invited to spend a pleasant two hours in viewing this programme. For Saturday, Mr Calder announces a big London star film entitled “ Sons of Satan.
