"A Village King Lear"


This is one of the finest dramas
ever released by the great Gaumont
studio. Astounding with beautiful
photography, and easily distinguished
as picture of unusual dramatic abil
ity, which the Gaumont actors do not
fail to take advantage of. this will
easily rank as one of the great pro
auctions of the month. A blind father
is prevailed upon by his two daugh
ters to transfer all his property TO
them, and they in turn promise to
look after him. This is done and he
makes his home with his eldest daugh.

the requirements of blind old man

an automobile. and everything else
