BRITANNIA
“CAMILLE” Norma Talmadge in the title role of her unique, modern version of “Camille,” the famous romance of Alexandre Dumas the younger, is the treat in store for the. patrons of the Britannia Theatre. The story of the screen “Camille,” while following closely the theme and spirit of the classical romance, is visualised in settings of the present day. The “Lady of the Camelias,” most celebrated of all the Parisian demimondaines, is interpreted by Miss Talmadge as a captivating, brilliantly gowned, bobbed hair heartbreaker of the present generation. Desiring to make “Camille” one of the outstanding triumphs in Norma’s career, Joseph M. Schenck, who produced the picture fo.r First National release, recruited a notable cast for the modern picturisation of the Dumas classic, and assigned Fred Niblo as director.
