“THE NOOSE”
COMING TO AUCKLAND Richard Barthelmess has given another fine characterisation to the screen .n First National’s “The Noose,” which •s coming to the Princess and Tivoli Theatres on Thursday. He rises to dramatic heights attained by few screen players in this virile story of the underworld, adapted from Willard Mack’s sensational stage play of that name. Barthelmess portrays a youth caught in the maelstrom of the underworld and tossed about as a bit of wreckage cn a stormy sea. His work in the role is exceptional and has created favourable comment wherever the picture has beed presented. “The Noose” was directed with skill by John Francis Dillon, and the story sustains interest throughout. There are many dramatic moments, and a pretty romance lightens the plot
