Leon Moussinac, one of the foremost French film crit- ics, believes that their importance is “at best, only documentary.” Comedia, principal French theat- rical and motion picture newspa- per, is making a nation-wide in- vestigation of talking movies. Al. most all of the answers from the French critics of techniclans are unfavorable. The French think it _no more reasonable to add speech to the movies than to sculpture or painting. ‘““That America has already gone very far in the development of talking movies is certainly possi. ble, but only so much the worse for American taste,” says M. Mau- | rice J. Champel, movie producer’ of Paris. “I frarkly admit that talking movies have always mov- ed me to laughter, and I hardly’| think it probable, even after the recent remarks of Mr."Jesse L. Lasky, that this so-called jnventior is important enough to modify the future of French film production.” ———.————— HORDES OF CARIBOU SEEN ABOVE DAWSON caribou Thousands of ‘were seen in the Yukon 'River at a f§ point near Swede Creek last even- ling [July 23] by mutorbolt fans' whe happened to *be out taking an odd spin.
