Summary
For the brief period of two nights only, the Coronet is to show Douglas Fairbanks' 'The Thief of Bagdad.' Circumstances do not permit a longer run, and, as many who saw it on its first showing will want to see it again. In this picture, Douglas Fairbanks is shown in an altogether different vein from that usually associated with his name, whilst the story is full of fantasy, humour, pathos and joy. In addition, the settings are amongst the most magnificent ever projected, whilst the music is appropriate to the occasion.
