EVERYBODY’S
“THE FLAG LIEUTENANT” We have heard much talk about the British and their production methods, of the many efforts they have made to capture a world market, but it has remained for the producers of “The Flag Lieutenant” to show the way. This is without doubt a great picture. With the active co-operation of the Admiralty, the makers have been able to build into the story much impressive grandeur and spectacle. Around the well-written play, a picture of excellent calibre has been made with a well-chosen and carefullyselected cast. True, it is a thrilling tale of the Navy, a romance that tells of a young officer’s sacrifice, so that his friend might get promotion, and, backed by the Navy and its valuable help, "The Flag Lieutenant” is one of the most pretentious of screen offerings. Hence the management of Everybody’s Theatre, on the lookout for special attractions for its patrons, is proud to be in a position to show such a production. In this British picture are Henry Edwards and Dorothy Seacombe, an Australian actress.
