MAJESTIC
TO-DAY AND TO-NIGHT Five of the most eminent screen and stage players are featured in Pathe'3 new and delightful dialogue production, "Holiday," which opened last night at the Majestic Theatre. .They are Robert Ames, leading man, Edward Everett Horton, famous comedian, Ann Harding, a stage and screen star of super-excellence, Hedda Hopstar of super-excellence, Hedda HopMary Astor — beauty personified. They are seen to the finest advantage in this sophisticated picture story of wealth and high society. s With a magnificent stage investiture as beautiful as it is rare, and every interior setting distinctly a work of art, rich, tasty and restful to the eye, Pathe's screen version of Philip Barry's successful play, "Holiday," is in every sense of the term, a dialogue production de luxe . A tensely emotional drama of high society and vast wealth, interpreted by stage and scren players of exceptional prominence, and pToduced oii a highly pretenituos scale, this picture is at once impressive, charming, massive, thrilling. The dramatic moments are finely relieved throughout the action by delicious comedy, while the dialogue, compact and witty, leaves little to be desired.
