EVERYBODY’S
“THE OVERLAND LIMITED” “The Overland Limited,” speeding through the night. Passengers peacefully sleeping. A maniac attacks the engineer, seizes the throttle and the steel monster roars onward —toward a broken bridge which will crash downward a hundred feet at the slightest jar! That is the hair-raising climax to “The Overland Limited,” the new Gotham production, which is now being shown at Everybody’s Theatre. There is wealth of real action, however, before the big scene, which is but one of many exciting moments in this romance of the roaring rails. An excellent cast has been assembled for this picture, every one of the players being in the star class. Some of the principal players are Malcolm McGregor, Alice Lake. Ralph Lewis, Olive Borden, Chas. Post, Ethel Wales, John Miljon, Chas. Henry Mailes, Emmett King and others. Frank O’Neil directed the picture, which is from an original story by James J. Tynan, scenarist of “The Great Divide,” and other big photoplays. An entire railroad division was utilised to make this production, which is the greatest railroad drama ever produced for the screen.
