THE SEA BEAST
ADAPTED FROM “MOBEY DICK.” JOHN BARRYMORE IN HEAD. When John Barrymore took “Mobey Dick” down from the bookshelf, he was fired at the turning of each page with a desire to film this greatest of American novels, and did not rest till all arrangements had been mbde for the making of this exciting whaling photoplay. “Mobey Dick” is a story of the New Englander sailors of 1840, who took their fast clippers throughout tho world in the hunt for whales. And each whale in those days metirit a fortune for the traders, for the whale supplied an endless number of necessities, but especially the oil that was needed for lamplighting. “The Sea Beast” starring Dolores Costello, with John Barrymore, is a Muster Picture to be released at an early date.
