FINE DRAMA PROMISED
IN THE SILENT CALL
H. 0. Davis’ presentation of the
Laurence Trimble-Jane Murfin pro
duction “The Silent Call,” which
is released through Associated First
National Pictures, Inc., and said to
be unique among motion pictures,
will be the feature at the Circle
Theatre, Thursday and Friday.
The story is a drama of the out
door West. Beautiful exteriors, 2
romanee of the silent places of vir
gin forests and mountains, and the
novelty of a dog in the leading
role are the features that have
commended this release to photo
play followers.
Strongheart, a Belgian police dog,
who won a decoration for his serv
ices with the Red Cross during the
war, is the canine in the starring
role. How well he understood his
part was realized in the course of
production when hardly any direc
tion was required for him and very
few retakes. |
A sensational plot for mastery
between two men, in which a girl
figures, is woven around the
strange evolution of the dual nature
of dog and wolf in Strongheart.
. “The Silent Call” was adapted by
Jane Murfin from the Hal G. Evart
story, ““The Cross Pull,” which ap
peared in The Saturday Evening
Post. Laurence Tyrimble directed the
production. Among the players in"the
cast are such favorites as: John
Bowers, Kathryn McGuire, Wwilliam
J. Dyer, James Mason, Nelson Mec-
Dowell, E. J. Brady and Robert Bold
