- Summary
- Pathe Intertitles - "Annette Kellerman is world-renowned as the "wonder woman" of the water. But, as a dancer also, Annette is an exponent of good form ..."
"With the aid of our new process, Miss Kellerman and her multiple understudies demonstrate her inimitable snake-dance -".
"Dancing demands continual practice, and Annette does at least four exercises every morning in her private "gym"."
"Swinging gives her the necessary rhythmic tingle - with arms, legs and Indian clubs -".
"There’s nothing like the wide-open spaces for body building. Annette ventures out under the sky -".
"There’s something about a cloud-hung sky that seems to take you right out of yourself -".
"And with the sympathetic setting of her beloved sea, Annette dances on and on, never stopping to be lonely -".
"But, Annette Kellerman, the mermaid incarnate, will be shown in a future "Eve’s Film Review"." - Researcher Comments
