BRITANNIA
“BLIND ALLEYS” Thomas Meighan, hero of many a romance, drama and comedy, enters a new field with his current Paramount production, “Blind Alleys,” arriving at the Britannia Theatre to-night. The new vehicle can only be described in one way. It is melodrama—fast, thrilling, very impossible, but—and this is more importan—superbly entertaining! ing! “Blind Alleys” presents Tom as a marine captain, newly married to a charming Cuban senorita. On the first night of their honeymoon they arrive in New York, and proceed to buck up against a series of events which separate them. Meighan is struck by an automobile and removed to a hospital, and Greta Nissen, his wife, finds herself embroiled with a gang of desperate thugs. Tom eventually leaves the hospital, only to fall unconscious in the street, and wake up in a boarding house room with a beautiful woman, Evelyn Brent, nursing him back to health. What happens when Greta is rescued and finds her husband in his new surroundings provide the picture with many more dramatic situations than could possibly be adequately described at this time.
