METROPOLITAN-"The Bright

THE Bright Shawl" the pictured
version of Joseph Hergesheime
novel and one of the very much dis
cussed of recent photoplays, is the
feature this week at the Metropolitan
Theater. 1t was shown yesterday
afternoon and evening to capacity
audiences
The period of this story is that de-
cade known as "the ffties," when
Cuba was growing increasingly res
table climatic boiling point was
reached. BY far the most commend
able feature of the picture is the
marvellous photography. The scenes
show in every respect that they were
actually photographed on the Island
Of Cuba, and the Spanish architecture
combined with the island palms gives
each scene artistic atmosphere that
aids the actors greatly in presenting
this hectic story with realism.
Richard Barthelmess, who made
such an excellent hero OF "Tolerable
David" another Hergesheimer char
acter. also gives a fine portrayal as

lean whose high ideals and national
priJe make him quick to champion

by Jetta Gondal. a woman of the same
