MARY GARDEN
i>y7Vnatole France Directed by Frank, H. Crane Released throughout North America December 30
{^OLDWYN has the unusual honor of introducing for the first time to the millions of devotees of the photo-drama this exceptional dramatic artist in a production from a story by one of the foremost figures in the literature of the world. In "Thais" Mary Garden is the thrilling, electric, vital personality of flesh and blood— the daring, sensational, unusual woman who constantly challenges the attention of the world; the artist who is the most-admired genius of our time.
A Prediction:
MITCHEL H. MARK, president, and Harold 1 * Edel, managing director of the Strand Theatre, who have as their New Year's week attraction at one of the world's greatest amusement, institutions, Goldwyn's remarkable presentation of MARY GARDEN in "THAIS," make this unusual announcement:
"We know of no picture with which Mary Garden in 'Thais' can be compared and we expect to break every attendance record of The Strand with this unrivalled production."
Ana Still More:
MARY GARDEN is receiv* ing more publicity, more attention from the critics, more attention from all classes of the public, than any star who has ever been presented in your theatre.
'"THAIS" is the one production of recent years that is so certain in its box-office appeal as to justify you in playing it for double the time you ever have given any other picture.
ASCHER BROS., Chicago, *"* telegraph: Mary Garden in "Thais" will prove the greatest attraction ever offered patrons of the screen. It is the most remarkable production of the year and we offer our congratulations.
OTANLEY V. MASTBAUM, *^ of Philadelphia, one of America's greatest exhibitors, writes: "Thais" is perfect to the smallest detail. Mary Garden and the production are both wonderful. "Thais" is an artistic knock-out. '
