Summary

Showing again at the Coronet Theatre this evening is the great First National film, 'The Fighting Blade,' a romantic tale of the wars between the Roundheads and the Cavaliers. Cinema-goers who remember 'Tol'able David' will require no further warranty of the excellence of the 'The Fighting Blade' when they are told that the leading role is filled by Richard Barthelmess. With the other parts, including that of Oliver Cromwell, very ably sustained, and with the scenery and the camera work equal to the fascinating theme, 'The Fighting Blade' is in every respect a picture with the fullest confidence of a delightful two hours' entertainment.
