"COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO" MAYFAIR-WEDNESDAY.
The thrilling story of Edmond Dantes, the young Frenchman, torn from his I sweetheart's arms by his enemies and unjustly imprisoned and left to rot in the grim Chateau d'lf, is made to order for Donat, and Elissa Landi is ideally cast as the girl, Mercedes. How, wheii Dantes has lost hope, of ever seeing j daylight again, the sage, old Abbe Faria | who occupies the next cell, tells him of I a secret treasure buried on the island I of Monte Cristo, and educates him so that when he finally escapes he may be able to face the world a superman; 'how Dantes escapes, following- the good
Abbe's death, locates the treasure and returns, a fabulously wealthy man, to visit a slow and sweet revenge on each of the three enemies responsible for his misery, is perhaps too well known to require re-telling- here.
