BURNT OFFERING
A NEW FOX FILM FEATURINC ELIZA LANDI PAUL LUCAS' PART "Burnt Offering," the new Fox dramatic picture featuring Elisa Landi in the leading role, comes to the Majestic Theatre next Saturday, Jan. 6. The story depicts the ad /entures of a beautiful woman, whcse heart is filled with bitterness and hate. She ■ pretends to love the man she marries until she is, for the first time in her life touched by real love. How destiny works out her problem forms the basis of this romantic drama. The picture is played against a Back-ground of tropical Africa and an 1
atmosphere of war, though no scenes of confiiet other than the conflict of emotions form a part of the action. Paul Lucas, one of the most popular leading men of the films portrays the principal male role and Alexander Kirkland plays a part scarcely less important. Warner Oland, divorced temporarily at least, from Oriental charaeterizations enacts a prominent role. Others in the cast include Donald Crisp, Earle Foxe, Yola. D'Avril, Eva Dennison, Ivan Simpson, Bert Sprotte and Vera Morrison. The story was written by Harry Hervery and it was prepared for the screen by Bradley Kink and Leon Gordon. The picture was directed by Frank Lloyd, a veteran in many screen successes, in eluding the Fox production of "East Lynne."
