QUEEN'S THEATRE.
EXCELLENT PICTURE NOW SHOWING.
A really charming romance, with plenty of quick action, and one of those love stories which, without exaggerated theme, make such an appeal to the cinema. going public, is to be found in "Romance of Rio Grande" now playing at the Queen's Theatre. Laid in Mexico and filmed on the spot, the plot of the play is strictly South American. One sees the gorgeous ecstumes of the women- folk, as well as those of the men, the wonderful old Spanish Ameri- can town settings and the back- ground of the vast open ranch.
