J. C. McNEEILY COMPANY The Great Tolstoi Masterpiece With Rod La Roque and Dolores Del Rio Webb Theatre - - TUESDAY - - A United Artists Picture, the seventh and last of the great series which has been run at the WEBB. This picture is declared to be a masterpiece by critics and audiences everywhere —one of the greatest pictures ever made. It has made such a hit that another Tolstoi novel has been put in the process of making—Anna Karenina, with Greta Garbo as Anna. "RESURRECTION” is a spectacular picture depicting the great Russian drama of the old regime. But this is not all. It is an intense struggle of two human souls—a man and a woman. The woman, who is of the lower strata of society, falls victim of the man, who is a prince. A child comes into the narrative. The years pass, and the man slowly overcome by conscience, returns to make amends to her he had wronged. But he finds not the simple girl he had known—hut a reckless cynic and profligate. He is appalled at the ruin his act had wrought Out of the struggle that follows comes the title "RESURRECTION.” It is a wonderful play. See it by all means.
