“CAPTAIN OF THE GUARD’’
COMING TO THE MAJESTIC The immortal march of the Men of Marseilles is one of the most dramatic highlights of history, and in the Universal all-sound musical romance, “Captain of the Guard,” which is coming shortly to tho Majestic Theatre, this heroic march is shown in all of its gripping immensity. It was this handful of nondescript heroes which turned the tide of battle in the Revolution from defeat to victory for the revolutionists, and the manner in which they fought and won is depicted with startling realism in the tremendous conflict shown in the picture. * Such is the climax of “Captain of the Guard,” a climax which is approached through one of the most romantic, one of the most appealing love stories ever filmed. This beautiful romance is between Laura La Plante and John Boles, during the course of which Boles’s golden voice is heard in live entirely new songs.
“Captain of the Guard” is a dramatic crosscut at the beginning of the French Revolution. Sam de Grasse, James Marcus, Lionel Belmore, Stuart Holmes, Evelyn Hall, Claude Fleming, George Hackathorne are in the notable cast.
