October 30, 1926 Universal Weekly 3 TRIUMPHS AGAIN Carr portrays a role, which to be frank, was made to order for her, and her alone. I give you fair warning that when you see certain of the scenes in this wonderful story of love and tribulations — from the box-office pen of Emilie Johnson — you are going to have a lump in your throat as big as an ostrich egg. Your own emotions are going to go on a spree, and if this can happen to a hardened critic, such as you are, what in the world is going to happen to your patrons? If ever a story was made for your box-office, this is it. I don't mean by this that it is a certain formula and strictly commercial in its success. It has the art that is so hard to put onto the screen — the art that reaches down into the very depths of your soul and remains there! "The Fourth Commandment" is going to be a sweeping world-wide clean-up for exhibitors. Get set for a real sensation, prepare to bill it and advertise it as you never did for any other picture and thus protect yourself from everlasting regrets. A great cast — a heart throb story — a director who knows what you want as well as you know yourself! That's the combination you are going to get. But you'll have to tie it up be fore someone beats you to it! X
