The Theatres , - MURRAY. Coincidence is a wonderful thing. At any rate it often works to bring desired results. When Charles Maigne, director, and Faxon Dean, cameraman, were assigned to make "A Cumberland RomancV' for Realart, those who made the assignment chose better than they knew. J Fi .A Cumberland Romance," which will show at the Murray Theatre for the last time Wednesday as the latest starring vehicle for Mary Miles Minter, Is a John Fox, Jr.. story of the Cumberland Mountains. And as It happens both Maigne and Dean are born and bred Virginians, raised right among the neoDle called upon to screen. One result of this familiarity was that both were extremely hard to please when it ca locations for the picture. Dean traveled for weeks through- n nar, the country before he found a spot which suited him. He said the location was "more Cumberlandy than the Cumberlands!" And the cabins seen are exact duDlicate nf mnimiii homes which Mr. Maigne saw in his boyhood. An excellent cast has support Miss Minter. Monte Blue is her leading man, while John Bowers, Guy Oliver and Martha Msttnv - seen m Dig roles. Mr. Maigne prepared his own script. He will be remembered as responsible for "The Copperhead," one of the year's great screen triumphs. MURRETTE.
