EMPIRE
“GIRL OF GOLD” “The Girl of Gold,’* starring Florence Vidor, is now being shown at the Empire Theatre. In this brilliant drama of New York society, Miss Vidor reveals yet another phase of her always pleasing personality, and in the role of the pampered daughter of a millionaire mineowner who has lots of money but no social prestige, she does some of the finest work of her career. The picture itself is a tale of a girl who has everything but the thing she wants most—love. There is a not© of novelty in a fashionable dance held down in a goldmine. Just when the hilarity is at its height, the mine caves in and traps the frantic party far beneath the earth. All are saved but the hero and heroine, and the scene in which the two await death together is one of rare tenderness and appeal. Miss Vidor is supported by a splendid cast, including Malcolm McGregor, Alan Roscoe, Bessie Eyton, Claire Du Brey and Charles French. “The Claw,” featuring Norman Kerry and Claire Windsor is also on the programme.
