ENTERTAINMENTS.

GAIETY THEATRE PICTURES.

TO-NIGHT AND TO-MORROW NIGHT

" THE SEA HAWK.” “The Sea Hawk," which Is to be shown to-night and to-morrow night, is Frank Lloyd's picture version of Sabatini’s colourful epic released by First National. It is a great story, has an excetpional cast, and possesses every element of really great, entertaniment. Never have ships of such size, nor so many of them, been actually engaged in combat on the screen; in fact, never have such ships been seen on the screen ; never so many big settings, so many important, surprising incidents in one picture, and so many famous people so active in these incidents. Milton Sills plays the part of Sir Oliver Tresshian, an English knight, who later becomes Sakr-cl-Bahr, the idol of Algerian corsairs, in a capable manner. Sir Oliver is a more dominant character than even “Robin Hood.” and it has required an unusual amount of versatility and study to make him the real, lovable gentleman he is on the screen. Enid Bennett has little difficulty in making Rosamund a sweet, demure, faithful English maid. Her grace and refinement arc refreshing.
