Banned in Providence, I believe.
Looks like the first theatre in RI it played at. There were only a couple others. I believe it was banned in Providence. Now a lost film.
1932 sex warning film “7th Commandment” which played here and, I believe, only one other RI theatre in 1933. It is now considered lost.
Some ads and listings also referred to the place as Diamond Hall.
Should be “Giuseppe Musolino.”
I remember going to this program at age 16. The color on “Stone Flower” impressed me and I loved the Eisenstein classic.

“Four Ways Out” was a pretty good Pietro Germi film, shown here in a dubbed version.
