QUEEN'S

DRESSLER

EMMA

She'll make you happy as you haven't been in a long timel

You'll laugh and forget, your troublos, you'll wipe away a tear as you follow the ups and downs of Emma, the most lovable character ever brought to the talking screen!

It's a riot! It's Maria Dressler's finest picture since "Min and Bill" and "Politics."
