AT THE LIBERTY
“Unseeing Eyes,” picturized by the
Cosmopolitan Corporation from Ar
thur Stringer's popular story, and
said to be the most thrilling film ever
woven around life in the Canadian
northwoods, opens at the Liberty
theater tonight.
Many of the scenes were filmed
10,000 feet above sea level and dan
gerous camera exploits were demon
strated over and over again. The
story itself is thrilling and fast mov
ing and for its interpretation on the
screen the Cosmopolitan Corpora
tion assembled a brilliant cast of
players.
Lionel Barrymore and Seen.t Owen
are featured, and others who appear
in the cast include Louis Woiheim,
Paul Panzer, Gustav van Seyffertitz,
Walter Miller, Louis Deer, Dan Red
Eagle and Frances Red Eagle.
“Unseeing Eyes” was directed by
E. H. Griffith, who directed “The
Go-Getters” for Cosmopolitan. Bay
ard Veiller, author of “Within the
Law” and “The Thirteenth Chair,”
adapted the story to the screen. The
interior settings were designed by
Joseph Urban. William Frederick
Peters has composed an 91’igiual mu
sical score to accompany the pic
ture.
