MARY PICKFORO BACK
IN RAGI1FFIN ROLE:
AT LIBERTY THEATER i
The saucy, mischievous imp who ,
is beloved by millions throughout (
the world is back on the silver j
screen.
Mary Pickford has forsaken the |;
ruffled laces and bejeweled gowns
of costume plays and has returned
to the type of role that made her
famous.
“The World’s Sweetheart” is ;
again the curly haired, happy
prank-playing, impetuous Irish
lassie in “Little Annie Rooney”
her latest United Artists Corpora
iton photoplay which comes to the
Liberty theatre tonight.
“Little Annie Rooney” starts i
with a fight and ends with a
fight. In between are laughs ga- j
lore, a tear or two, much suspense \
and many heart throbs. It’s
ideal for Mary Pickford and her
characterization of Little Annie is l
one of genuine artistry, played as j
no other actress could play it.
The- story is one of the slums of ,
New York, an epic of those crowd
j ed, musty thorofares on the East '
jSide, where men, women and chil- j
dren in motley array swarm like
ants in an ant hill.
While still a child Annie is
plunged into a maelstrom of dra- ;
matic incidents that first sober
the impulsive girl, then bring out
the heroic qualities so often found
in children of the slums.
“Little Annie Roney” is declared
to be Miss Pickford’s best picture
in her eventful screen career. It
is the type of picture which should
please eVeryone, has been given a
| sumptuous production and the
I photoplay by Charles Rosher and
Hal Mohr is beautiful thruout.
The coming of “Little Annie
Rooney” is an event of magnitude
|in the present theatrical season.
