BRITANNIA
“GOD’S OWN COUNTRY” A beautiful film of North America, “Back to God’s Country,” starring Renee Adoree, will be shown at the Britannia Theatre to-night. Renee Adoree again proves that she is one of filmdom’s Leading stars. She is a remarkable actress and possesses a pert and fascinating French personality which fits in well with her French-Canadian role in this Universal production. Robert Frazer is equally deserving of praise for his successful efforts in a difficult part. Mitchell Lewis, whom we have long known as a deep-dyed villain, plays a sympathetic role in this picture and does astoundingly well, proving that a good actor can essay ant type of characterisation. Walter Long glowers and plots well as the unscrupulous ship captain. James Oliver Curwood has served up a story which is an intensely dramatic ta*le of the snow country, whirlwind in action and rousing in emotional power.,
