At THE QUEEN

The pages Of history have been
torn asunder and their characters
brought TO life in Deception" This
colorfui. magnificent romance which
is now being presented at the Queen
Theatre.
SO striking are the sets and the
developments OF the piece that the
spectator imagines himself a subject
Of Henry VIII rather than Warren
G. Harding the First. Though mod
ern inventions have made possible
the exposition Of this history. the
effect as presented on the screen is
four hundred years behind times.
Deception" features the love Of
Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII This
is only one OF the six romances that
fllled the adventures life OF Blum
King Hal. Its story is tragic. Emil
Jannings as Henry. is everything that
the King could possibly have been.
He resurrects the character from
the dim past and enacts him without
fault. Henny Porten as Anna. is
also worthy OF commendation. She
e an attractive woman and a fine
actress.
