Children play most of the roles, except, of course, the giant; they make up the royal court and the army, and they tell their story in ten reels of wonderful and fascinating pictures to all the world of childhood, and to all who love them. The clever and sumptuous handling of the immortal story, that grown-ups half remember and half forgok, gives it an appeal that is universal.

The story lends itself wonderfully to pictures. It has an introductory modera setting that gives it reality to the minds of those, of all ages and then it fades back to the time of doublet and boss and the beanstalk that leads to the land of fairy-tales and the devouring giant,

As a matter of a fact, it is the film enchanted" to all who see it I holds those of every age, whether they look at "it with the eyes of a child and see the realization of their. wonderful fairy tale, or view it as grown-ups who behold the unfolding of a fascinating story done in an exquisite aetting by beautiful children.
