MISCELLANEOUS AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PUBLIC OF NELSON IV NO WING your interest in high class literature productions, I feel sure you will welcome the knowledge that “Metropolis,” the stupendous film mado in Berlin, comes to the Regent Theatre on, Wednesday, commencing at the matinee. As a film, as a thesis of physicology and as an example of the most brilliant acting ever seen on stage or screen, “Metropolis’’ stands out from all other productions as the most wonderful film of all time, an opinion ungrudgingly endorsed by the press and public of both New York and London. “Metropolis” preaches a mighty message in an entertaining and thoroughly absorbing manner, it sets a standard for all time. It is devoid of political propaganda, and like all true art its appeal is universal. It is the creation of Fritz Lang, poet, philosopher, and man. He conceives a city one hundred years from now with a population ruled by the rich, in which the workers have become mere slaves. Your civic pride is reflected in the broad avenues of your beautiful city. Those who planned it—not so very long ago—showed courage, vision and foresight. If those hardy pioneers hewing their way through virgin forests, enduring untold hardships to establish it could see the City of their Dreams they would confess themselves amply repaid. "A CITY OF DREAMS”— “METROPOLIS” “Metropolis” has the endorsement of the management as the most powerful lesson unfolded on any screen. .Pictorially yours, PERCY JAMES, Manager. J. C. WILLIAMSON.
