“BARBED WIRE”
The moving picture of a sound, a. noise, has been captured on the screen in one of the most effective and unusual shots ever made by a camera. It is the roll of the war drums, throbbing around the world. No mechanical device is; used to create the effect which, originated in the mind of Enrich Ponimer, producer with Rowland V. Lee, of Pola Negri’s newest starring picture for Paramount, “Barbed Wire.*’ The action of “Barbed Wire” starts jus;: before the declaration of war in 1914. First is shown a German drummer. marching at the head of a military band. Then a French, then Belgian, then Austrian, then English, and on and on dissolving one into the other.
The fignlres first appear small on the screen, then grow larger and larger, until the rattling drums seem to be sweeping out broadcast from the screen.
