"Eleanor Boardman is seen at her best in the role of Mary, a shop girl of the better class who leaves her position to marry a poor clerk who fails to make good. It has been said that Vidor obtained James Mur- ray from the extra ranks for the big role of John. My only comment is that more directors should look farther among the extra players for screen material. James Murray is not a "comer"; be is already there. This one part establishes him as a remarkable screen actor."

"The Crowd" will be shown at the Queen's Theatre from Thursday to Saturday.
