BRITANNIA
“THE FALSE ALARM” The cast of “The False Alarm,” a Columbia production released by Master Pictures, now showing at the Britannia Theatre, is one of the most popular appearing in any picture production at the present time. The days when the stars were identified solely with one producing company are a thing of the past, excepting in one or two instances, and players of wide fame and popularity go from one studio to another as offer lures. The cast in “The False Alarm,” which is a thrilling melodrama with startling fire scenes and a theme of unusual interest, introducing the courage of a coward as a keynote, is headed by Ralph Lewis, Mary Carr, and Dorothy Revier. Others appearing in prominent roles in the picture are John Harron, George O’Hara, Phiscilla Bonner, Maurice Costello, William Franey, Arthur Hoyt, and Lillian Leighton. It is said that this production especially glorifies the fire department of the country, every method of fire-fighting known to exist having been brought into play in making this picture. Ralph Lewis, playing John Casey, was once a fireman.
