2 THE FILM RENTER & MOVING PICTURE NEWS. — June 17, 1922. They All think it’s fine! Read what they say about— No. 1 of the British National Programme THE WALTER WEST PRODUCTION “'W henGreek MeetsGreek’” Featuring By PAUL TRENT. VIOLET HOPSON and STEWART ROME BIOSCOPE. “This film is notable for careful attention to detail, convincing realism, and polished and refined acting.” THE TIMES. ‘“* When Greek Meets Greek’... is @ thoroughly interesting production. It is based on Mr. Paul Trent’s novel of the same name. There is plenty of excitement, and the producer has made the most of his material. The scenes, in which the hands try to wreak their anger on the heroine, are extremely well done, and the producer has handled his crowds admirably. The film contains some excellent views of work in one of our great steel-producing factories, The acting is quite good. Miss Violet Hopson is the other ‘' Greek,”’ and she makes a very determined young lady. The remaining parts are all quite competently played. A word should be said for the restraint of the producer. His good taste is conspicuous throughout. and probably that is the reason why the film has been granted by the British Board of Film Censors a certificate permitting it to be shown for universal exhibition.” THE WESTMINSTER GAZETTE. “The story ... is acted in a straightforward way, and the scenes taken at actual steel and iron works on the Tyne are very well done.” INDEPENDENT FILM REVIEWERS, “A yery nicely-produced romantic drama. The acting is good, and the photography mostly excellent. Production tasteful and suitable Interiors well chogen and staged. Acting good. On the whole the photography is excellent, tinting and toning very good,” “U” CERTIFICATE RELEASED JAN. 1923 \ ‘BUTCHER’S FILM SERVICE LTD., Camera House, Farringdon Avenue, = : LONDON, E.C. 4.333352: "Phone: Holborn 5995 (5 lines).
