RUDOLPH VALENTINO (the star)
(Ten Reel Super Special)
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse realizes
the .producer’s dream of a million dollar picture. The
Screen version of Vincent Blasco Ibanez’s Epochal
Novel, which took more than a year to complete
Upwards of twelve thousand people were engaged,
in the undertaking. More than 125,000 tons of'
mason'ry, steel, lumber, shrubbery and furniture in
excess of the material used in the Woolworth buiicN ;
ing, were used in the massive setting of this colloft-
sal spectacle, an entire French village capable of
housing 6000 souls was put up and then destroyed
before the camera lens. Every house in the village
was finished throughout. A costume factory was
erected on the Metro Studio grounds for dressing.
The production of armory and machine shops were
incidentals of the other building operations.
The greatest picture that has ever played Carroll
ton. Remember the dates.
