AMUSEMENTS, Flashes From the Screen News and Comment of the Photoplay By C. E. X Tm they are probably most appreciated of all the studio efforts, screen comedies are rather dif- ficiilt for ?mducers and public. Of co , the producer’s troubles start when he begins to make a funny picture, and they continue, out of all keeping with his sub- ject until final judgment is ren- deted. Comedy manufacture is about the most difficult ‘of all studio work, for the creators and players never know just how a icture will strike the public. his holds true with’ the multi- reel productions, and not with the short subjects, many of which are thrown together. and then thrown .at the cash customers. Real comedy is the life blood of the motion picture industry; it requires 1 preparation and skill in manufacture. From the standpoint of the publi¢, there is a comedy difficul- ty which probably never will be overcome. - This has to do with points” of a produc- Rogers, who is scream- in “The Connecticut ! oses a considerable portion of his dialogue by the audience laughs. That is, after he has launched one df his side- splitting quips there is, naturally, 1o pause in the dialogue. While the audience laughs, the show goes on, and the thread of the dialogue is lost for the“time be- ing or until another “laugh point:” d All this hardly can be reme- died, although it is one of the big difficulties of the screen comedy. And it is one place where the Nelson. is, I suppose, the most primitive stage of education; whereas the literature of any country is its crowning glory. And just as soon as you get talking pictures you automatically get literature. The great authors of the world will soon be turning their attention to writing for the screen; in fact, they are doing so now. The great mass of the movie public is quic to learn and to appreciate style in writing, as they have already learned to appreciate good music. My experience in the studios has taught me many things that have been useful to me in the theater. First and foremost, it has brought home to me the value of sincer- ity; I found that every flicker og an eyelash, every shade of thought, was registered on the screen, and so I reason that what is seen by the camera may be felt by an audience. The art of re- straint and suggestion may be studied by watching _Charlie Chaplin on the screen. He is, in my opinion, the ideal motion pic- ture’ actor.” * kK X You are never safe from the movies. Comes word from the Warner Brothers’ studio that it is now employing “scouts” who attend all sorts of amateur performances in their search Jor screen talent. So, if you have a part in the church fes- tival, or are playing the lead- ing role in your high school play, watch out! The scouts may get you! While this idea is new to the movies, it has been utilized for many years by the big league base ball stage has a distinct advantage over the screen. On the stage, for instance, the “laugh point” is marked by a pause in the dia- logue, the pause lengthening or shortening with the amount of applause or the number of laughs. In the manufacture of a picture the director has no idea where the public may laugh. If he filled his picture’ with pauses to accommo- date the laughs, he might make serious mistakes; the laughs might not arrive. at the sched- uled ts. Therefore, he can do nothing in the matter. The . Flu simply goes on and the dia- ogue ‘is lost. A picture filled with pauses for expected laughs which did not materialize would most certainly be an awkward production, to say the least. But what can we do about it? * % x % There was a day in Holly- wood when Rin-Tin-Tin, edu- cated dog, ranked with the screen’s leading stars. He was the pet of the film colony; his pictures caused lines at the box offices and his owner’s contract called for @ large cash figure each year. Now, because Rin- Tin-Tin did not like the talk- ing pictures, he is in eclipse, and his place has been tal by another .

The company also’ announces that it is adding Anna May Wong, Dolores Del Rio, Eleanor Boardman, Lilyan Tash- magd and -Carman Barnes to the list Jor’ certain productions. The little Oriental actress has an im- r: int with Warner Oland “On the Spot.” Entire casts of children will be used in the production of “Huck!z- berzy Finn,” “Tom Sawyer, Detec- tive,” and “Sooky.” Harold Lloyd, it is announced, is working on a *new type” of talking picture. * * o x Motion pictures are coming Jresh from the press these days. i Inithe event of a gang murder, the studio writers get busy and fiz up a movie story on some of the facts, weaving in their ' heart interest’ If a giant diri- gible makes an unusual trip, you get a romantic story on the same idea on the screen. Now we are to have a picture called “She Wanted a Millionaire,” based on the recent killing of an American theater magnate by his wife. It is all current, bst very‘highly colored. It is said that the true story of the war aviator's widow who mar- ried the man who killed her jband in combat was turned cold by the studio offi- It was too improbable! * % % ¥ GmRGE ARLISS, who has scored a remarkable success in all of his pictures, is convinced that the films are a drama stimu- lus.: He says: “There has never opinion, such a stim- 1 the country can produce to be seen and heard in the most of the United States, doupt about the educational pos- sibilities to be derived from talk- teams.

They devote especial attention to high school plays and collégiate dramatics, and already four youngsters have been sent to the Hollywood studio to be . trained. Naturally, it is pointed out, no promises of stardom are held out to the recruits. “The future that awaits them on the screen lies in their own hands.” . * x % % Short Flashes.

It is sald to be the first time a car- toon screen subject has gained sufficient importance to rate recognition along- side the screen’s bl stars. The growing popularity of the Disney crea- tion has necessitated world-wide releas- ing distribution. Hence the deal with United Artists, for exhibitors in every foreign country are said to be clamoring for_“Mickey.” Disney reccntly decided to make his comedies with music and sound, using only those verbal expressions common to all languages. The coniyact calls for the release of 18 “Mickey” comedies and 18 “Billy Symphonies,” the latter also being musical cartoons originated by Disney. Bobby Jones. BOBBY JONES, winner of 13 major 1f championships, 4 of them m g the only grand slam the world has ever known, was seen and heard in action on the screen for the first time when the first of his series of Vita- &hone short subjects entitled “The Put~ r” was sereened.
