PRINCESS
“LONESOME LADIES” Anna Q. Nilsson not only likes to have other beautiful and gifted actresses in her pictures, but she is happy to have them appear at their best. In her latest picture under the First National banner, “Lonesome Ladies,” in which she is co-featured with Lewis Stone, there are five beauties of widely different types, all film actresses, with plenty to do in the story. “Lonesome Ladies,” now being shown at the Princess Theatre, is a lively domestic comedy-drama, wherein several attractive young women figure prominently. Jane Winton enacts a siren role; Doris Lloyd pursues the hero on her own account; and Fritzie Ridgeway, De Sac-ia Mooers, and Grace Carlisle do their utmost to take him from Miss Nilsson. "I’m no militant ‘woman’s rights’ worker, but I do recognise the value of having as many striking feminine players as the casts permit with me, in a picture,” Miss Nilsson observes. “I think the public is, and always will be, interested in stories like “Lonesome Ladies,’ in which women figure fix lively and unusual action.” The Uempsey-Tunney fight film continues to attract large audiences to tho Princess Theatre.
