GREATER THAN
ALL THE REST!
Is this tremendous, dynamic characterization of Joan as enacted by Priscilla Dean! It rises strong and powerful, clear-cut and cameo-like, above anything you've ever seen! Its immensity bursts upon you!
A thrilling dramatization of the screen in which the strength of human emotions vie with the unlimited fury of the elements in chaotic turmoil!
See the total destruction of a huge mine, the great sacrifice through fire and flood, that love called forth from a girl who had trusted no man!
You have admired Priscilla Dean before - you'll stand and cheer at this! You'll say you've seen some picture!
