The Exhibitor (October 15, 1920)

42 "THE EXHIBITOR," OCTOBER 15, 1926 Stanley Theatre Signs United Artist Features “Way Down East” Engagement Extended “The Love Flower,” a D. W. Griffith production, opened at the Academy of Music on October 4th, for a one week’s engagement, to excellent business. On the opening night the interest of the audience was largely enhanced by the personal appearance of the star of the picture, Carol Dempster. Following the engagement of “The Love Flower,” Mary Pickford and “Suds” played a week to excellent business. “Way Down East,” another of United Artists’ releases, is enjoying an extended engagement at the Chestnut Street Opera House. According to original plans the closing date was set for October 9th, but so urgent were the requests for an opportunity to see the feature that the engagement was extended for four weeks. Up to the present time the theatre has been filled to capacity at every showing of the picture. Negotiations have recently been made whereby the new Stanley Theatre will have first run on United Artists productions. It is probable that the next Fairbanks picture, which bears the tentative title, “The Black Fox,” an adaptation of Johnson McCulley’s novel, “The Curse of Capistrano,’ will open the new Stanley. A. C. Berman, assistant general sales manager of United Artists, spent a week in Philadelphia assisting Manager Martin of the local office, during which time he had an opportunity to meet many exhibitors.
