In his newest Artcraft picture, "Wolves of the Rail," which will be
shown at the theatre on , William
S. Hart, the Thos. H. Ince star, is introduced in a new role, that of an upholder of law and order, rather than an outlaw, although the early scenes of the drama depict Hart as the leader of a daring and notorious gang of bandits, who so terrify the officials of a western railroad that a famous eastern detective, known as "The Bloodhound," is sent to break them up.
How Hart, as "Buck" Andrade, meets this detective; how his reformation is brought about at the bedside of his dying mother, and how he does the work that "The Bloodhound" came West to accomplish forms the basis of as thrilling and interesting a photoplay as Hart ever made. Indeed, Thos. H. Ince, who produced "Wolves of the Rail," ventures the opinion that this Hart offering is the best in which this famous character has appeared since becoming an Artcraft star.
In the role of "Buck" Andrade, Hart finds his reformation made easier by the companionship and devotion of Faith Lawson, a young girl who has succeeded to her dead father's job as "towerman" at the Smoky Gap mountain station. In fact. Faith and Buck are the central figures in a pretty romance, which adds considerable interest to the virile story.
"Wolves of the Rail" is a thriller. There is no let-up in the action, scene following scene in rapid sequence. Of course Hart is prominent in the episodes, and consequently there is sufficient action to delight the admirers of the star. Hart is supported by a company of especially capable players.
