on charging cavalry with sings
and arrows, can stir up quite as
much excitement as the more
modern machine guns and heavy
artillery. Perhaps not as noisy,
but equally as suspenseful and
hazardous.
Director De Mile has been al
most reverential in his treatment
of Bible history, in infusing with
fervor and devotion his Christian
martyrs and in investing his
European monarchs with a holy
zeal for the Crusaders cause. Not
here will it be said that he has
dealt conveniently with the his
toricAl record for the producer ex-
plains that THE Crusades" is a
composite story for screen pur-
poses of several of the early cam.
paigns for God and faith.
Some Fine Acting
Henry Wilcoxson, as Richard
the Lion-Hearted has the star role
in 1.-THE Crusades" and carries
through a difficult assignment
with distinction. He can be gruff
and fearless in both war and love
is. Loretta Young, Rather
inc De Mile, C. Aubrey Smith, Ian
Keith. George Barber are sincere
and impressive in other parts of
major Importance. No other direc-
tor in Hollywood possesses the De
Mile genius for moving Stupen-
dous groups of extras n Il his
mass scenes are triumphs of tech
nical arrangement. Throughout is
usical background which
serves the action appropriately.
I liked The CrusadeS" and
there can be no doubt it will take
it's place with the great pictures
of 1895. 1t opens weeks engage
ment at the National theater, with
reserved seats, next Sunday after
noon.

Good Love Story
There can be no such finger
pointing at 1.-THE Crusades." In
the script which Harold Lamb,
Dudley Nichols and Waldemar
Young fashioned after diligent
study of Bible history, there is an
abundance of love. In fact the
love story is such an integral part
of the action and it's romantic de-
tail so interviewer with the for
tunes of the sturdy warriors, it
requires some 10 minutes to I'M

received to cease firing"

in the first five minutes of his
screen narrative and he held it

cold-blooded way in which Rich

his fataher had pledged him to
such union.
Mighty Spectacle
Then comes the Lion-Hearted's
wedding by proxy-by his sword
with Berengaria. the lovely
daughter of the King of Navarro.
These are scenes cleverly con.
ceived, written and acted. They
reveal the Skillful art of De Mile
at re-creating ancient ceremonials,
colorful costuming and ba k,

breathing realism into pageantry
and regal custom.
