COSY THEATRE. Jack Holt and Florence Vidor are cc-starred in “Sea Horses,” which concludes at the Cosy Theatre tonight. The plot deals in vigorous and refreshing manner with the experiences of a beautiful English girl, deserted by her husband, who finds a new love after some stirring adventures aboard a freighter anil in an isolated East African port. The film starts out with action and keeps up a swift tempo to the close, with a series of powerful climaxes interspersed of which a raging tropical tornado is the most thrilling. There are some fine characterisations contributed by George Bancroft, William Powell, Mack Swain and Frank Campeau. The settings are unusually attractive. Splendid supporting programme. Box plan at Henderson’s or theatre. OPERA HOUSE. “The Wanderer” is the most spectacular motion picture since “The Ten Commandments.” In presenting the wonder picture of the “The Wanderer,” Paramount gives to the world another picture of such far reaching good for the industry in particular and mankind as a whole, as it did when the first presentation of “The Ten Com. mandments” was made. To a certain extent comparison with ‘ ‘ The Ten Commandments” is inevitable, in as much as both pictures are massive in conception, powerful in drama and both originally from a common source, the Bible. But where ‘ ‘ The Ten Commandments” drew with sharp contrast, “The Wanderer” with broadness of vision, spectacular effect and human story brings home the great truth that vras hidden in “The Parable of the Prodigal Son.” The theme and human tenderness of the story makes the mere use of descriptive and laudatory phrases useless praise alongside i£s massiveness.
