-AMUSEMENTS. Flashes From the Screen News and Comment of the Photoplay By C.E. HILE the roducer and the exhlb tor may be termed the “key men” of the motion picture in- dustry, the director is coming in for more and more attention. It is this studio worker who is large- ly responsible for the success or failure of a picture, for the actual production is placed in his hands. He is forced to handle the detail, from the production of the scrlpt itself to the final cutting of the film, and poor direction has killed off many a worth-while story. All this is brought to mind by the really wonderful direction of “All Quiet on the Western Front” by Lewis Milestone. This director cannot be termed a pioneer of the films, for he entered the yletuu game in 1019. He was fven a thnrough training, serving in prac- tically all production posts until he became a director in 1925 for Warner Brothers. His first feature was “Seven Sinners.” Then he was loaned to Famous Players, producing one of the Harold Lluyd pictures. Since that time he has gone steadily ahead in his work, “All Quiet” being his crowning ef- fort. With poor, or even ordinary, di- rection, “All Quiet” would have been an ordinary picture—one of the run-of-the-mill war pictures. But Director Milestone took it from this level, and he deserves more of the credit than any other person connected with the produc- tion. His direction is almost flaw- less, whether you like the picture or not and he accomplished an almost impossible feat in fnuaw- ing the novel from l y ‘The production of Qulet will out as one of the Hollywood fgats of the past year and prob- ably for some years to come. PR One g the reasons wh d David ‘ark Crifith stan out as a director is the fact that he 1is sincere in his pro- duction.

And this not only to lgply to the theaters of America, but to the world at large. Even now the lc- tivities of each are so over- lap‘p as to be practically indistinguis] able. It’s hard to tell where one lets off and the other begins. Amm directors, writers and scripts are being constantly in- terchanged. We happen to know a deal, now before a banking fra- ternity, that is startling in its ramifications. It's only a ques- tion of time until the stage and screen are merged.” * kX% While educational authorities ruled that only one-third of the feature pictures echibited during the past month (reg- ular monthly releases from the producers) were suitable for children, high praise is given to many of the short subjects —one and two reel pictures of special educational and enter- tainment value. A serious move is being made to revive the old-time serials, with sound, and these were always popular and usually suitable for ~the entertainment of children. * x “DISRAELI was voted the best sound picture of the past year, well deserving this honor, and the picture’s popularity has resulted in many producers going in for something new under the sun. “Holiday” and “A Lady Sur- renders” may be classed amon; the innovations, while “Outwart Bound” is said to have been hailed with delight at the first shiowings. ‘The latter is a story dealing with life, death and the hereafter. “Liflom” has a theme somewhat like “Outward Bound,” and it was especially popular as a stage at- traction. “Abraham Lincoln,” “All Quiet on the Western Front” and Joumeyl End” sound new notes ghowplny production, and the Universal company is smnml 8 productltm of the harles Norris novel, “Seed.” Mack Sennett, long s producer of custard ple comics, has arrived at the conclusion that the public no longer wants that type of com- wl{ He announces that his studio 1 discontinue the throwin, of ntfy. the pllfieu to devote & istocated ltoriu This h certainly a radical move from an organization which for important, what 1t cannot do.

Film author- ities who voted in favor of the silents wheén the round movies were dashin .g into the fore| nd have decla to keep as silent the old pictures. However, the end of this dis- cussion does not mewn that the film industry is at peace and that everything is right with the world. Are we to have wide fiilm? Are the u:ln presentations to become jborate? Or are the pres- cnhnanl to be eliminated alto- gether? These questions now itating the producers and hibitors.
