This isn't just picture-it's sensation.
You owe it to yourself if you expect to really cash

There is no question but what the public will rave

your own fault if they come kicking to you when you

this film must not be advertised in routine manner
because the public has been bunked so much with
Wild adJecves that you only really get them when
you have such big film this by carrying sincere
note of personal guarantee in all your ads that will

would advise you to play this for three or four
times your usual rum and do at least three times as
much advertising in advance, thereby giving fair,
genuine test to the idea, which have tried to get
you working on, of going after the truly big pictures
in truly big way. l that if you will DO this
you will see light to what your policy should
be in the coming year.
By all means in preparing your advertising on this
call attention to the fact that George Loane Tucker
produced "The Cinderella Man. and "Virtuous
Wives" Both of these films decidedly successful
and both were very entertaining. You must empha-
size the entertainment value of this in order that you
don't handicap in any way by too much reference to

Most Forceful and Appealing Dramatic Entertainment
Have Ever Seen.

T T is time to rejoice.
"The Miracle Man" is the most exceptionally en-
pertaining and tremendously appealing dramatic pro-
duction l have ever seen.
You can bet your red shirt that this will hold your
audience every minute and send them out boosting
more enthusiastically than they have in the past
and you will find very large percentage of them
coming back to it, bringing some friend or some
other part of the family with them
We have all been looking for radical change this
fall due to the final realization by the men with the
say of the need of giving the capable directors
real chance to go out and make truly big pictures.
Certainly, congratulations all around are due on this
result of such policy.
Starting off with fast-moving intensely interest
ing episode in New Yorks Chinatown, introducing a
gang of crooks as human and attention-compeing as
the screen has seen, the story shifts to small
town, and we find through most remarkable crcun-
stances miracle performed. This scene has wal
lop such as the has seldom disclosed and the
wonderful part about it is that it is pure drama
thereby proving for all time that wild tactics are not
necessary to deliver real thrills.
From that point the story builds and builds to
tremendous climax in which the influence of environ
ment and clean thought for good bring about some
remarkable character changes.
do not remember of ever having seen production
in which the characterzatons of many principals
were so beautifully presented and nicely balanced
The photography, settings and general atmosphere
are very artistic and yet this artistry always blends
