On the Ice (1914)

Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Syers have perfected a number of intricate and graceful figures which will be of interest to anyone appreciative either of skill or beauty. The picture was taken at Wengen, Switzerland, and on account of the wonderfully dry atmosphere is superb photographically. None of the blur and haze, which so frequently lessen the value of pictures of athletic sports, is at all in evidence. Every movement stands out as distinctly as the etching on a cameo. The feature of the picture, which will be of greatest interest to patrons of motion picture houses, is an ice dance in which Mr. and Mrs. Syers take part, a sort of tango, magnified a thousand-fold in speed and grace. No professional dancer, however clever, could hope to approximate the dash and perfect poise of this beautiful dance.
