The Birth of a Nation"
At the Spencer.
An epic of the screen. Much as
that phrase implies, it is weak TO
describe ''One Arabian Night"
which began an engagement at the
Spencer Square yesterday. 1t is a
First National attraction, directed
by Ernest Lubitsch and starring
Poia Negri, the incompatible.
1t is the ultimate in entertain
ment. Never have we beheld a
picture which gripped the Specta-
tor to the extent that "One Arabian
Night" does. All keenly enjoy tales
Of oriental love, intrigue and re
venge. Here the spirit of the mys
tic east envelopes one as the story
and at the end it is with
a start that he finds himself sitting
in a theatre chair.
After seeing the performances of
Pola Negri in Passion" and "Gyp-
sy Blood" one could be tempted to
assert that the heights of her his
triOnic art had been reached, but
she has outdone herself in Zone
Night" She plays the part
of wild dancing girl of the des-
ert, loved by all men, but loving
none until she meets a handsome
scion of royalty. And then she en-
ploys all of her enticing arts to
win the one man who has aroused
in her the spark of love.
The settings are staggering in
their immensely and massiveness.
The action Is laid in the desert and
in the ancient city of Bagdad. Mar
velous are the street scenes and
the interiors of the harem and the
palace of the sheik, and gorgeous
the furnishings.
Lubitseh plays an important role.
that of the hunchback clown. and
it is difficult to say in which part
he excels-as director or as actor,
but in both he is masterful
We freely predict that "One
Arabian Arabian Night" will be one
of the most taIked-of pictures in
the history of the cinema industry.
There is not a flaw apparent in the
