ROYAL PICTURES.
The English “Kineiria” says of “The Flag Lieutenant,” the star item to be screened at The Royal on Thursday“ The play of this name, produced some years ago with Cyril Maude in the lead, achieved great success, and the film version adapted from AV. P. Drury and Leo Trevor's popular drama, has all the advantage that must inevitably accrue through the fame of the original drama. It presents a simple story containing elements that always make a strong appeal to the sympathetic public. A selfdenying hero who is ready to forfeit everything lie prizes most in order to repay a debt of gratitude to a friend —love scenes, comedy touches, and situations in which the emotion of the moment is always at a high temperature, embodies some excellent backgrounds and very effective photoplay.
