PICTURES AND THE PICTWREGOHR
Drama and comedy of a different kind
(From Then to Now — Part 10)
A succession of ilramis and comedies all alike would make any cinema seem dull. And dull cinemas arc had cinemas. To say that Hepworth Picture Plays arc ever a sue.
similarities would be absolutely untrue, Hit. pointing to results is better than merely praising ourselves; therefore we take " The Passing of a Soul" and "Spies" as our examples— the first remirkable for the beauty and uniqueness of its story, the second charming for the realistic " English
ness " of its war-time humour.
The " Passing of a Soul" bells how the substitution of another girl for hi*
dead sweetheart saved a man's life. " Spies" involves a soldier, a girl, and a
poet ; of whom the girl is the sweetest, the poet the funniest, and the soldier
the luckiest.
The cinema you generally attend— wouldn't you like to see these pictures
there? Ask for them to-night.
