More than one hundred thousand
Chinese lanterns were hung from the
Chinese shops, dwellings and temples
lining both sides of the colorful Pekin
thoroughfare, in Nazimova's The
Red Lantern" during the screening of
the big street scene. Atop the giant
arch overlooking the Great Wall sur
rounding the ancient capital was
placed mighty searchlight. the
bears of which were played upon the
| figure of Nazimova, as attired in the
regal robes OF the Goddess of the
Red Lantern, the star was borne down
| the street on an immense palanquin,
! carried by two dozen Chinese coolies
through surgipg throng of 900 Ce-
| lestials
The rays of this giant searchlight
| and the light of the thousand lanterns
were caught by the blinking eve OF
the camera, but beyond the side
| lines'-that is, out range of the
camera lens-was an array of lights
| for Illuminating the entire spectacle

There is considerable speculation
