AMUSEMENTS PHOTOPLAY The T was bound to happen. Nothing escapes the motion picture octopus And now it is after good old Emil Coue, the apostle of sunshine an: autosuggestion. Al Lichtman, president of the corporation bearing his name, through the publicity sheet of his organization, announces that negotiations are still under way to secure the services of Mr. Coue to appear in a film setting forth the Coue method of self-treatment by mental concentration. The announicement states further that tentative plans for the picture are being formulated pending Mr. Coue's decision, and that in the event that he consents, the production will be filmed in Los Angeles, where Preferred Pictures maintains its studios, and during the transcontinental tour of Mr. Coue. * ok ¥ % T scemis a happy thought to enlist the distinguished Frenchman in the moving picture industry. There have been so many ills, real and imag- inary, attributed to it, that self-concentration and an earnest effort to get “better and better, day by day and in every way” might be a happy solu- tion for the troubles for which the censor has been urged and which drew even a Postmaster General from his place in the President’s cabinet to remedy. Mr. Lichtman's idea, however, is that a picture presenting the Coue system for the uplift and happiness of mankind in general would be irresistible, and he has offered Mr. Coue $5.000 2 week to help make it. But money means nothing to the great optimist, for he has said that any money he might receive for such a picture would be devoted exclusively to the maintenance of the clinic which he hopes to establish in New York city. i ¥ ok ¥ OUGLAS FAIRBANKS, t “Robin Hood,” seems to be acquiring the pace that has sent “Abie’s Irish Rose” into the record-breaking class. nounced for its third week at the Columbia Theater, there seems to be o let-up at all in the crowds that pour into the theater lobbies for each howing of the picture. Since the local reviews have appeared, the National Board of Review has spoken, and in the current issue Excep- iional Photoplays quotes the review as declaring the following: “A story-book picture is Robin Hood, as gorgeous and glamourous a thing in innumerable scenes as the screen has yet shown. It is a splendid ex- ample of the one type of serious photoplay that has any future in a land where the fear of the censor works more efficiently than the fear of God, and it is hard to scc how, in many respects, the future can improve on s example. It is romance—the romance of chivalry—in all the lovely trappings the heart can desire, and thrilling entertainment for the whole amily group. from the oldest to the youngest.” * ! world has expended its best talent on devising labels could sell goods.

The amount of electric power con- sumed in one afternoon properly to flluminate the banquet hall “set” in King Richard's castle was suficlent to light the city of Los Angeles for seven hours any night.

This particular banquet hali. covering as it does more ground space than the spacious concourse in the Penn ania railway terminal station in York city, overtaxed the capacity of the largest lamps which had been used in studios .up to that time and therefore it became necessary to bulld special lamps of such increased capacity for radiating {llumination that millions of candlepower could be generated. Two full months were required by Bert Wayne, illuminating engineer, in order to make the preparations for tarring Douglas Fairbanks in *“Robin Science and THE close mimunity of interest be- tween science and modern amuse- ments is given scant thought by the casual pleasure seeker, vet thers is, nevertheless, a very close interlock- ing of the three most recent develop- ments in the daily life of the avera American cltizen — aeronautics, mo tion pictures and the radlio.

N e vast Gevelopment of the motion picture has not enabled that form of amusement, however, to outstrip the airplane or the radio set in the in- terest of the great majority, but it has fostered the development and im- provement of aeronautics and the radio none the less. A few years ago only the news reels carried views of the airplane in action and the radlo was not constd- ered in any respect an adjunct of pie- ture making.

Now comes the rejuvenated Selzn Myron Selznick, who succeeds his ather, Lewis J. Selznick, as produc- tion head, with a combination of sci ence and theatricals of unusual inter- est when viewed apart from its pure- ly_casual aspects. In “One Week of Love in which Conway Tearle and Eiaine Hammer- steln are co-starred, the real drama in a ploture that carries an irresist- ible human appeal is inaugurated by an aeroplane crash into a 'dobe shack in the Mexican foothills. So expertly has the airplane sequence of soenes— nose-dive, straight fiying and tall- spin—been caught by the camera that this succession of fiylng stunts might easily be divorced from the action which it follows and precedes and be employed valuably as an instructive and highly scientific commentary on the art of flving. The radlo played its part in the succees of the, filming of this part of the picture, since it was again pressed over great expanses of space, thus saving a great amount of travel and costly loss of time. But the picture goes still further in its éxemplification of how closely linked are the most involved scientific problems with the seemingly simple matter of making a photoplay to amuse the crowds. Engineering skill of the highest order was engaged for Beven weeks on the task of weakening a high trestle bridge sufficiently to plunge a passenger train into a roar- ing gorge during a spring freshet end so permit the filming of the play’s real climax exactly as called for by the script.
