It is interesting to note that “The Flame of Life,” to he screened tomorrow and Thursday nights, was shown at Marlborough House by Loyal Command. This distinction was gained because it was the first (Swedish picture shown in England since the war, because of the character of the picture, and beauty of the scenery, and because the artists belonged to the (Swedish Royal Society of Artists.
