BRITANNIA
“THE CRYSTAL CUP” What she regards as the most unusual characterisation of her entire career is portrayed by Dorothy Mackaill in “The Crystal Cup,” the First National Picture now playing at the Britannia Theatre. Her character is that of a girl who detests men and to rid herself of their attentions makes herself as masculine as possible in dress and mannerisms. Her final awakening to the natural reactions of her sex provides a highly unusual and dramatic plot. “The Crystal Cup” was produced for First National Pictures by Henry Hobart and features Jack Mulhall in the lead opposite Miss Mackaill. Gerald C. Duffy adapted the novel to the screen and John Francis Dillon directed.
