FRANKENSTEIN
ONE OF YEAR'S MOST _ TALKED ABOUT •RELEASES. MAN-MADE MONSTER. Here eomes the world's most famous shoclcer. Just a word of friendly warning: If you have a weak heart and cannot stand excitement o ■ gruesomeness, we advise you not to see this production. Talce our word for it, it will thrill, it will shock, it may even horrify you. But if your nerves can stand electrifying drama, you will find it in our raext picture, "Frankenstein," which opens on Monday, October 3, at the Majestic Theatre. You may have seen a production c-alled "Dracula." If you did, take cur tip: "Frankenstein" far-out-Dra-culas "Dracula." If you didn't, it may interest you to know that it was one of the most exciting and popular pictures of last year. You missed something there that everybody- was talking about. But don't miss "Franken-
stein." It will he talked ahout also. James Whale directed it with a cast including Colin Clive, Mae Clarke, John Boles, Boris Karloff, Edward Van Sloan, Dwight Frye and Frederick Kerr. It is the holdest thing he or any other director ever attempted. It is all ahout a man who made a monster. Bones and bits of human bodies from graveyards and gallows trees went into the making of this eight-foot caricature of humanity. But aias, he had the hrain of a criminal and the fiendish fury of twenty maniaes. Don't fail to see what happened when this terrific monster escaped to prey upon terrified men and women.
