NATIONAL AND LYRIC
“IN OLD KENTUCKY” “In Old Kentucky,” a thrilling and romantic story of love and racehorses, which was recently directed by John M. Stahl for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, will be seen at the National and Lyric Theatres to-morrow. The picture is based on an original screen play by A. P. Younger, scenarist of “Brown of Harvard,” “Tillie The Toiler,” “Twelve Miles Out,” “Slide, Kelly, Slide,” and other big Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film features, but was suggested to the author by the famous old Charles Dazel melodrama of the speaking stage. Much of the production was filmed at the great race tracks, Latonia and Churchill Downs. Other scenes were made at the famous Blue Farms near Lexington, Kentucky. The leading romantic roles are played by James Murray and Helene Costello, the former a brand new face on the screen and said to be one of the sensational discoveries of the season. The cast includes Wesley Barry, Dorothy Cummings, Edward Martindale, Nick Cogley, Carolynne Snowden and other players.
