12 -THE MOVING PICTURE WEEKLY— Gi ear 2S 2 spoken Pi ay HERE'S a whals of a pictuue, gentlemen. As a stage play it made a big hit on Broadway and on the road. But the stage never could give Augustus Thomas' famous play such rugged virility, such swift action, such sheer suspense and such gripping drama as have been screened. For example, that sequence in which a mine is flooded is crowded with thrills — because the scenes were actually photographed in a real mine. But realism is only one of a score of reasons why "Colorado" is a whale of a picture. You'll say so, too, when you see it. GOOr> D
