PRINCE EDWARD
THREE BIG FILMS | Three big pictures make up the film j programme now being presented at I the Prince Edward Theatre, j The first of these is “Steamboat Bill, j Junior,” one of Buster Keaton’s most | hilarious comedies. This introduces ! the frozen-faced comedian as the son of a Mississippi river-boat captain. The next film is “Power,” a dramatic tale in a setting of a mountain hydroelectric camp, and starring William Boyd, which will be followed by “Making the Grade,” an amusing comedydrama of a “cheeky” American youth, starring Lois Moran and Edmund Lowe. Her father, Maurice Costello, was the first of the screen’s matinee idols, and j during this early period Dolores and ; her sister Helene, girls who had not | even entered their ’teens, appeared with their father in a great number of pictures. Dolores usually impersonating a boy. Later they made a trip j round the world with their father, thus j establishing a personal following | many foreign lands.
