November 5, 1921 "The Four Seasons" From the Exhibitors Trade Review, October 15, 1921. THE FOUR SEASONS.— A four-reel Urban Popular Classic-Kineto novelty. With the assistance of Raymond L. Ditmars, curator of the New York Zoological Society, Charles Urban has given to the screen four reels of impressively scientific and instructive entertainment. It makes its appeal to every member of the family and the sort of educational subject that every mother and father will want every member of the household to see. Beautifully put together the four reels are a succession of charming nature with a tinge of novelty and colorful magnetism that makes it easily one of the most remarkable educational-entertainment subjects ever reflected on the silver sheet. A reel is devoted to the picturization of the beauty of each of the four seasons. There are animals that make you marvel, wonder and hold you aghast. It all seems so beautiful and wonderful. Here is one screen offering that need fear no one and justifies the use of superlatives. It is Nature picturized in all its glory. It is Life itself — the life of the animal and the human being who looks on in wonderment. Photographically, it is a gem. The Pour Seasons is remarkable because it accomplishes what many have branded impossible — makes pleasing entertainment of a subject that heretofore has been restricted to the four walls of the schoolroom.
