AMUS EMENTS. Trend of Directors. 'ECIL DE MILLE has specialized | during the past five years in silken drama, depending for appeal as much upon ornate settings as upon the character of the acdon. Douglas Fairbanks, since becoming an_ inde- nendent producer, has centered his at- tention upon romances of history and literature. The same is largely -true | of Mary Pickford and Norma Tal-, madge. GriMfith specializes in the purely theatrical and Allen Holubar has a flair for the spectacular. Marshall | Neilan goes in for the original twist' in story and characterization, regard- less of the fidelity with which it re- | flects actual life. Many wielders of the megaphone seem to be of the opinfon that the only kind of story that will go on the screen is ome in which adolescent love bu into flame and culminates in the final em- brace and fervent kiss that denotes, just before “The End.” that they were | married and lived happily ever after! There is one dircctor, however, who has done much to translate real | American middle age the silver sheet without the I tittle of his subje value. this aspect of the sterling work has been dedicated to the develop ment of the motion picture by John M. Stahl, whose productions for Lot B. Mayer are distributed through First National. % to 'es of one jot or ! s entertainment There has been little said of Stahl has violated precedent avery turn by beginning his stage stories in a state of marr; carrving the lives of American types on from Point through trying situations that have proved quite as intresting and fully that | as popular as the saccharine recitals |of the cloying sentimentality of the age of “puppy love.” The firat notable production of Mr. Stahl was “The Woman in His House." Ths home was established, a dear lit- | tle baby romped through ‘the scenes. |and there seemed slight chance in tho early reels of & smashing popular hit. !But that is precisely what “The {Woman in His House" proved to be. | “Then came the gifted director | “One Clear Call,” the story of a ren gade, his wife and his mother; “The Song of Life anything but a silly love story of youth; “The Child Thou Gavest Me,” a classic of married life, and numerous others of his works te realize with what unerring dramatic isense Stahl has perceived that the real drama in our lives comes after |the first flush of vouth is past and | things begin to take on their true perspectives. Probably the most notable of all | the Stahl camera dramas is his latest, “‘Thw Dangerous Age,” | couple of forty, and then proceeds to et forth in terms of highly enliven- {ing entertainment — not | preachment, calculated to try the ul of a saint—why they have ar- vith danger but susceptible of sane, ogical and deeply satisfying solution and adjustment bility evolve of Mr. a stal ard of screen lived rather .than an | purely imaginative sort of human ex- istence found only in books of fairy tales.

Goddard, and relates the story of a young man implicated in a Kentucky feud, a Spanish heiress in search of plans of a haunted castle and the harassments thut pursued both. The climaxes are eerie in the extreme.
