RIALTO AND REGENT, EPSOM
“THE MAN WHO LAUGHS” “The Man Who Laughs,” starring Mary Philbin and Conrad Veidt, will be shown again this evening at the Rialto and Regent (Epsom) Theatres. The great settings such as Southwark Fair, the House of Lords, Queen Anne’s Court, various London streets, the docks, and*other scenes, so carefully and aptly described by Hugo’s facile pen, have been reproduced for the camera with remarkable fidelity. The story, even more so than Victor Hugo’s other two masterpieces of writing, brought to the screen by Universal, “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” and “Les Miserables,” makes excellent photo-play material. Love, intrigue, human interest, strife, despair, gilded hopes, glittering society, exotic scene*, and all the other agencies and events I which interest the human mind are there.
