Great Picture mt Ditma.s


The Invisible Power a Gold
wyn picture, is the feature at the
Ditmas theatre for three days. this
week. 1t is an e~ngrossing story OF
the underworld, os real dramatic
power. Although the characters
belong to the submerged tenth the
story deals entirely with the eff
forts of a reformed convict to lead
ar honest life. The fact that he
has once been in Jail. makes him a
marked man for the secret police;
and his attempts at reform meet
with strange handicaps.
House Peters is seen for the first
time as a Goldwyn leading man. and
his splendid performance in the
role of the regenerated convict is
both appealing and convincing.
Irene Rich, as his wife, gives a poig
nantly sincere portrayal of the
young mother whose self-sacrifice
at last leads to her husbands name
being crossed off the police index
Cor criminals.
THE Invisible Power is excel
lcntly directed and produced; and
the leading characters are support
ed by a fiawless cast.
The story by Charles Kenyon,
was directed by Frank Lloyd: and

by many clever and subtle touches
