Summary
The music of 'Way Down East' arrived on Tuesday, and that explains why last night's presentation of 'Way Down East' at the Coronet Theatre was a sheer triumph. It is noted that Mr. Ray got into touch at once with the headquarters of the distributing firm in America and the President agreed that Hongkong ought to see the film presented just as it was in New York.
