There may be ethers who have missed It under circumstances similar te mine, se maybe I can start something by tell ing you hew I missed what I feel pretty certain must have been a wonderful picture. "Yes, I saw It advertised, but I never topped te leek up the cast or who directed It. because the title sounded like another of these impossible things we get stung with se often. Ne one told me about it until after it was gene from our midst, but that may be due te jeu and these very few ethers who saw it net being close friends of mine. "Nevertheless, had I known that it wns directed by the director of 'Pas sion' nnd 'Deception,' and that Emll .Tannines was the same actor who played King Henry, why, you can bet I would have paid twice as much, if necetenry, te see It as I pnld te see 'Manslaugh ter.' I must tny I mere than enjoyed '1'asslen' nnd 'Deception,' seeing them both twice, nut J nu net uuiuci i notice who directed these two pictures or who wns in the cast. Se when The Leves of Pharaoh' came along, why, I just did net knew enough about It te think it wns any geed. "Hut like 'Scream Face,' I'ntse want te knew if there isn't a chance of it coming back.
