The film is said \to be one of the longest yet produced, as it occupies over 40 min- ! utes in unfolding. The artiste 3 who 'are .-mown enacting the many , characters in this human drama are . ranked amongst the foremost of the present day French stage, and have been all specially chosen to suit the characters they interpret. Its preisentation in.the Town Hall on Mon- | day, September 20th, should prove ; attractive to those who appreciate I a well-conceived and well-enacted , animated subject.
