Summary
It speaks volumes for the control that the Coronet has secured over the best class of moving pictures that that house can screen in one and the same day two such pictures as 'The Plunderer' and 'Thais.' Roy Norton's red-blooded story which the former is founded. William Farnum has in it one of the best character studies he has ever attempted. In addition, there is a fine Pathe Gazette and a good Harold Lloyd comedy.
