CUYVAEMPEY PRODYCT IONS @ Romance and Love. gq ‘The history of the world holds no greater romance— save the love story of a boy and a girl— than is played on the oil fields of America today. (The gold rush of 1849, the diamond mines at Kimberley, the Alaska placers—all fade into insignificance before the magic of oil. @ The shooting of a twenty-thousand-barrels-a-day gusher thrills the beholder into a veritable ecstasy — and such a scene is in the picture. @ Oil, the life-blood of industry, is the object of the greatest game in the world today; it is the second most interesting word in the language to the most people in the United States. But the greatest romance of all time, the one word that means most — universally — is love. And there is a love story in this picture which is truly beautiful — because it concerns a girl and a boy “even as you and I.” € Timely—thrillins—sweet : these attributes make “OIL” the comedy drama of the year.
