LYRIC
“THE DEVIL HORSE” Evelyn Brent’s name is synonymous with fast, thrilling stories, and in "The Jade Cup,” her latest Paramount release, she has undoubtedly the most novel and gripping photoplay of her career. The plot of the film, which is now showing at the Lyric Theatre, revolves about a mysterious cup, the possession of an artist, which is supposed to cause the death of one person every year. True to its reputation, the artist is killed, and suspicion falls on an ex-gangster, the fiance of the chorus girl heroine. How she rescues him in a thrilling race affords Miss Erent, as the chorus girl, one of the most tense and dramatic climaxes in screen history. Rex, the wild horse, is the star of the second picture on the programme entitled “The Devil Horse.”
