Summary
Every movie play has its critics. Even 'The Thief of Bagdad' was no exception to the rule. Therefore, it must only be expected that certain people will find fault with the 'Moon of Israel,' the British film now showing at the Coronet Theatre. It is taken from the famous book by Sir H. Rider Haggard. Film plot included. Never before perhaps have such massive effects been achieved; certainly never before has screen technique reached such a high pinnacle as in the famous passage of the Red Sea.
