EUGENE OBRIEN AT
LIBERTY TWO NIGHTS
“Sealed Hearts." a Selznick pic
ture, with E it Retie O’Brien aud all
star support, headed by Robert Ede
sou and Lucile Lee Stewart, will be
the feature attraction at the Liberty
Theater toniRlit and tomorrow.
It is hard to conceive of a more
dramatic situation than a father and
adopted son both loving the same
woman. Yet. it is about this pivot
that the authors, Edmond (SoulJiug
and Eugene Walter, have woven tills :
remarkable story.
The father is a wealthy industrial |
magnate who has grown tip with an
aversion to woman, it being his be
lief that they aro a hindrance to a
man’s progress. He has adopted and |
reared a son, who also falls heir to
his father's view of woman.
l!ut the* time cornea when the elder
Prentiss meets and falls in love
with n pretty young girl and after
they are married she finds that she
does not love her husband, but is
attracted by his son. This attraction
soon grows into a burning love that
is readily reciprocated and (he events
that follow are startling.
"Sealed .Hearts” is a rapidly mov
ing drama that commands interest,
at the start and holds its suspense
to the last. .Many gorgeous sets are
used in its making and the delicate
situation of a young man's infatua
tion for his father's young wife is
handled with rare skill and delicacy
by Director Ralph Inco.
