ENTERTAINMENTS.

GAIETY THEATRE PICTURES. TO-NIGHT “ THE BREAKING POINT.” One of the greatest storm scenes since “The Old Homestead” is a feature of the new Herbert Brenon production for Paramount, "The Breaking Point,” which is to be screened tonight. The story is a gripping western drama, starting in New York and (shifting to the Wyoming mountaincountry. Nita Naldl, Patsy Ruth Miller, George Fawcett, and Matt Moore are featured in the principal roles. Mary Roberts Reinhart wrote the story, which was unusually successful both as a novel and a stage play. SATURDAY NIGHT. - “THOSE WHO DANCE.” The picture “Those Who Dance,” which will be shown to-morrow nigh*, is a “crook” story told in a new way that furnishes absolutely novel entertainment. Ince has screened a picture dealing with a theme of worldwide interest, for he has told the story of liquor in a tensely absorbing, fast-action drama. The story transpires, for the most part, in the New York underworld, but, instead of the “usual” underworld types, the bootlegger and the hi-jaeker and all the other crew that have come into the limelight since the passage of the Volstead law hold the centre of the stage. The novelty of the characterisations and the entirely original situations whicn result when a girl from the country drops in with the underworld life to get evidence to save i>er brother, who has been “framed,” have been developed into a topnotch production. There is an excellent cast headed by Blanche Sweet and Warner Baxter, and it includes Bessie Love, Robert Agnew, Lucille Ricksen, and Mathew Betz.
