KANE, PRES. The numerous admirers of fast moving crook melodrama will find entertainment exactly to their taste in this picture. It is keyed up to top speed from the first to the final reel and punctus^ted with thrills enough to fill a serial. Not that "Till We Meet Again" is to be listed according to a serial standard of excellence, for it registers as an exceptionally high-class feature in point of fine direction, clever acting and skilled direction. Also, the plot, while furnishing constant surprises and a legion of totally unexpected situations, is so well constructed that it is easy to follow, in fact the perfect continuity achieved is one of the film's strongest points. Director Cabanne and his talented cast of players have done their work intelligently and with great effect, the result being an attraction which should win wide-spread popularity and bring the shekels streaming freely into the box office Points of Appeal. — It is seldom that such rapidfire action as distinguishes this production can be kept up for six reels without a jarring note or illogical sequence in the situations which arise. But there isn't a hitch in the progress of events, one incident blends into another with perfect smoothness, the tension never slackens and it is impossible to anticipate what is coming next. The persecuted heroine wins instant sympathy, the romantic chases and melodramatic punches are splendidly developed and a crashing climax is attained. Cast. — Mae Marsh is excellent in the exacting role of Marion Bates, which calls for a dynamic display of energy and the star's ability as a forceful emotional actress has never been manifested to better advantage. Norman Kerry is a handsome and pleasing lover, Walter Miller, scores as Brennan, the outlaw chief, and the support is flawless. Photography, Lighting, Direction. — There are some charming exteriors, the interiors are well filmed and the lighting effects admirable. No break occurs in the continuity and the action never falters. FOREIGN REPRESENTATIVE SIDNEY GARRETT Physical Distributors PathC Exchange A swift moving and absorbing crook drama revolves about Mae Marsh. It teaches the valuable les^ son never to sign on the dotted line without reading the paper. The picture is most interesting and pleasing and has an excellent cast. Martha Mansfield is very pretty and attractive as the girl friend and Walter Miller is a handsome crook, who meets with an untimely end, and Tammany Young is very amusing as another crook.
