THEATRES
Coming to the Strand

Sunny Spain has been more
co%lorfully Or faithfully transplanted
to the screen than in THE Passion
Flower in which Norma Talmadge
rises to great dramatic and emotion
al heights and scores her most artis-
tic and fascinating achievement in
the silent drama to date.
THE Passion Flower opens to-
day at the Strand theatre. 1t is a
worthy adaptation of the stage play
of the same name by Jacinto Bena-
vente, Spain's greatest living dram
Artist, and it is a credit to the artistry
of the director, Herbert Brenon, as
well as to the very charming and
talented star.
On the stage Nance O'Neil de-
lighted her audiences in the role of
"Raimunda," the mother. but In the
screen version Norma Talmadge is
the enhancing and fiery Acacia
the daughter, who spurns the love of
her jealous step-father and is the
center of a most romantic and tragic
tale.
Norma Talmadge has an excep-
tional supporting cast with two lead
Ing men, Courtenay Foote, who plays
the role of Esteban, the step-father,
and Harrison Ford as Norbert, the
poet and lover Of Acacia. Others in
the last deserving of mention are
Eulalie Jensen, as Raimunda,
Charles Stevenson, Alice May, Her
bert Vance. II. d. Mcclellan, Austin
Harrison, Robert Agnew. Robert
Harold Stern, Natalie Talmadge,
Robert Payton Gibbs, Augustus Bal
four and Walter Wilson.
The story was adapted for the
screen by Mary Murillo and Herbert
Brenon and the finished production
is released by Associated First Ma
tional Pictures, Inc.
THE Passion Flower" in its pic
F'ture form, is one of the most note
worthy contributions to the silent
dramatic art of recent years, and if
1t is to be taken Is a criterion, great
merit in subsequent productions may
be looked for from the Talmadge
studios in the future.
