Film Daily, the movie Bradstreet. states that critical opinion and box-office figures * formed the basis of the survey. A cool quarter of a million appears to be the mark of the appreciation ac- corded Charlie Chaplin's latest picture, “The Circus,” in its four weeks' run at [S(mu‘. the Mark Strand theater, New York.

The New York stage play “Apple Sauce” secured for the screen by National Pictures, and Mulhall is to play the featured role.) “Apple Sauce” is by Barry Connors and ' contains much excellent material for film purposes. Four of the thirteen 1928 Wampas baby stars are play in_Pathe pic- tures—Lina Basquette in “The Godless Girl,” Sally Eilers in Sennett comedies, Lupe Velez in “Stand and Deliver” and Bue Carol in “Skyscraper.” Paul Terry, noted éartoonist, 15 back at the 's Pilm Pables Studios in w York :fter a three-week vacation | spent in California. | Monte Banks, star in Pathe feature comedies, has sailed for England to |} make productions.

Back from a honeymoon in Tia | Juana, where she was married to Logan Metcalf, -a Los Angeles bond broker, Madge Bellamy is at work on her new | Fox picture, “The Sport Girl.” Arthur | Rosson is directing. “The Sport Girl” !is based on an original story by John Jphnny Mack Brown, the foot ball star, has the leading masculine Irole. Motion pictures taken in 1898 and 1905 are used in “New York's Sweet- heart,” the new curiosities’ subject re- leased by Educational, which compares scenes and events of that day with the present. One sequence compares Fifth nue in 1905 with the same scene to- Another depicts the Fire Depart- ment of New York answering an alarm in 1898 and then the present-day motor equipments going to a blaze. “Souvenirs,” a Tiffany-Stahl color classic, now being filmed at the West Coast studios, has in its cast Anna May Wong, Esther Garcia. Joyzelle Joyner and Harold Miller. The picture, which is being directed by Hans Reinhardt, the Austrian director, is a story of an old sea captain who has three souvenirs of past love affairs which developed in Spain, Japan and Honolulu. Walter Hagan, the golf champion, has been signed by Tiffany-Stahl Produc- tions to make a series of features in which golf will be the predominating | theme and only the golf champion will b be starred. Donald Keith, supporting Clara Bow in “My Lady of Whims,” is a Boston y and a cousin of Francis Ford, an- other screen favorite, although not even mechanically related to the famous Henry Ford. The most famous triangle in the {world is filmed in “The Private Life of Helen of Troy,” the First National pic- ture now showing at the Metropolitan Theater. Irate husbands whose wives have skipped off with other men have done a number of terrible things in re- venge, but none of them ever started & Trojan war. Making “The Gorilla” into a movie required a staff of technicians larger than the cast appearing in the picturs There were 9 people in the cast and 99 technicians. The wooden horse, familiar to ‘all schoolboys as ‘the ruse by which t. ancient city of Troy was captured, ap- pears in all its glory and magnitude in “The Private Life of Helen of Troy," the First National picture. The horse built for the picture was more than 100 feet high. Director Alexander Oumansky of the Fox Theater permanent ballet. who has been “a director of the dance” in every capital of Europe. has created a new interlude, suggesting, in this instance, St. Valentine’s day and what it means to the sweethearts of the world. Clara Beranger has been assigned to write the adaptation and continuity for the screen version of George Kelly's rize play, “Craig’s Wife,” for Pathe release. Miss 3 wgnhn . De Mille as scenarist, has written the script for many of that producer-director’s outstanding motion pictures. It will be in entirely different roles | than his portrayal in “The Little Shep- herd of dom Come,” his current First National picture, that Richard Barthelmess will next appear before the cameras. His two forthcoming films are “Roulette” and “Out of the Ruins.” The first is by Fanny Hurst, the second by Philip Gibbs. Charles Puffy, Hungarian stage and screen comedian, wrote the original story, “The Last Cab,” which William K. Howard is to direct at the De Mille studio for Pathe. Puffy 1s a well known continental player and erstwhile lead- ing comedian for Ufa, the famous Ger- man studio. “The Last Cab” is a tense drama laid in the country he knows so well. It features Rudolph Schildkraut. Frieda Inescort, lead woman in Winthrop Ames’ production of John Galsworthy's “Escape,” has applied for United States citizenship. Miss Ines- cort, who is an English actress, was married to Ben Ray Redmon, an Amer- ican writer.

REGOGN’!ZING that only from strong stories can good motion pictuies be made, Paramount executives have added to their scenarists a new group of writers with wide and varying back- grounds of experience as an important move In their 1928 production program. The new writers are expected to bring with them knowledge gained from ex- perience in the theatrical business, collegiate careers and = metropolitan newspaper work. All of them. it is thought, have demonstrated ability as story constructionists. “The public has come to demand story quality in motion pictures” B. P. Schulberg, associate producer, declared in announcing the new writers, “It has always been Paramount’s aim to pro- duce only pictures that had a story worth telling. Creations of these stories and the adaptation of famous novels and stage successes for the screen is an all important part of picture production. Paramount’s policy Is to obtain the best workmen in all departments.” The new writers come from widely varied fields. Louis Gasnier is well known in both Europe and America. His plays and_stories received high recognition in France. In this coun- try he is better known as a producer director. ¢ e, Box Revue of o from? L2 - 7, R L Tiam Fo;:?l and “Dress Farade.
