The great William Fox photoplay.
"Du Barry" in which Theda Bara does
her most brilliant work, will appear at
I've Palace Theatre on January 18th.
This play is the most wonderful crea-
tion OF its kind that has ever been pre-
sented on the films. All that Miss Bara
has done only gives a suggestion OF
the charm and elaborateness of this
great production.
The story is a historic one, which
many have attempted to write, and il
has even been seen upon the stage, but
it remained for the films and Miss
Bara to give TO the world the revela-
ton OF the character of this wonderful
woman. Il is known that the great
actress spent long time in studying
the times of Louis XIV and the woman
who pervaded them, before she at
tempted the creation of this photoplay.
There is no doubt that she has sue
ceeded in a marvellous manner in
grasping the subject and putting it
upon the screen.
One OF the most remarkable features
of the play is the dresses that Miss
Bara wears, which were especially de-
signed for her, after long consultations
with experts on the period of Louis
XIV. These dresses are peculiar, how
ever, In one way. They might easily
appear in drawing rooms of today.
Every one Of them is the study of the
art Of womanly adornment, and is a
thing Of beauty in itself.
Miss Bara has discovered and re-
vealed a thousand litGe details of the
womsnly toilette which will be i'm
mensely interesting to every woman.
These secrets are revealed upon the
screen in a most fascinating way, and
make the film additionally attractive
to all whom women charm.
In this play Miss Bara does her best
work, due to the fact that she has
grasped the possibilities or the drama
and has entered into it with a spirit
which only she possesses There are
myriads Of gorgeous scenes, each fill
ed with brilliancy and charm.
