CRITERION— NEW YORK— NOW CUNNl»*OHW>rt lAi. Is ^^The Covered Wagori^ The Greatest Picture Ever Made? Every critic says so. In New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, it has met with marvelous praise. “The Covered Wagon” did not merely “happen.” It was made in the usual course of Paramount’s production activities of the 1923 season. It was produced in the same months that gave the public such pictures as “Bella Donna,” “Manslaughter,” “Back Home and Broke,” “Blood and Sand,” “To Have and To Hold,” “The Ne’er Do Well” and “Grumpy.” Although Paramount made “The Covered Wagon” for its own product, in making it, it rendered a service to the whole motion picture industry. It is the most powerful weapon to justify the screen ever brought before the public. “The Covered Wagon” belongs to the industry. Irvin Cobb says “no man with an ounce of American spirit in his make-up can afford to miss it.” And that’s no joke!
