Screenings By DON ALLE) STAR FACTORIES. Who and what makés a motion pic- ture star? The producer, the director, author; photographer? No! The possession of personality, good looks, winsomeness, manliness or the ability to “stunt? Not necessarily. Stars are made by the “peepul.” That has been definitely settled in the, case of the film “Moran of the Lady Letty.” It tema, according to rumorg thats are flitting about tho corridors of tu ¥ Hotel Astor, that Dorothy Dalt.n re- fused to accept the leading part un- less she, and sho alone, was starred, And 80 it came to pass that when the producing and releasing corpore- tions sent out the advertising and posters to the exhibitors that no name was mentioned but Miss Dalton. But. did the exhibitors let it rest this way? They did not! t In 80 per cent. of the cases the hame of Miss Dalton was ripped out of the posters and’ that of Rodolph Valen- tino substituted. We asked an exhibitor why. “Gosh,” he answered, “the ‘peepitl’ night come to see Dalton all eight, but they'll fleck to see Valentino.” And there you are. PECULIAR COMPLEX. ‘The best Italian dancers on the screen are Irish. That sounds funny, but it is very, very true. This comes on no less an authority on dancing than the renowned Theo- dore Kosloff, who is also some pump- kins when it comes down to screen villainy. \ Kosloff's latest. pupil is Colleen Moore, as Irish as a bit of the Blarney Stone. Not that she wants to join his ballet, or anything fike that, but she's preparing for her next movie part—that of an Italian dancer “L can stand on my toes,” Colleen, “and’ 7 can stand on my head. ‘I've learned all sorts of poses —$1 poses—340 poves—and everything right down to 10-cent poses.” Looking admiringly at his latest | pupil, Kosloff smiles and mutters: “You ean’t beat the Irisi—even in Italian dances.” SCREEN PIONEER. » Col. William N. Selig, who made the ! first motion picture production in Los Angeles back in 1908 is still at it. “I well remember the first scree: ing,” mused the Colonel. “It w shown at Tally’s Theatre. It was ‘Niagara Fails.” Then came a short film showing a chicken-fight and then ‘The Great Train Robbery.” “The first 300-foot film shown at Mr, Tally’s house was ‘The Black Diamond’ Express.’ The first film with a regular story was ‘In the Sultan's Power.’ How times have changed:"” MORE TITLES. Thuse who wondered what sort of a film Anita Stewart's latest would be when they read the title, "The Wo- man He Marricd,’’ have something else to wonder about now. For Thomas H. Ince just announced the completion of ‘Tuc Man She Mar- ried “The Man She Murried’’ and soy \ Woman He Married,’’ from all infor- mation at hand, are not husbavd and wife, not even cinematically: Both wedlocky fiims are being re leased by Asyocinted First National and we sure pity the poor prc agents and artists who are in dut bound: to keep tho matrimonial film apart.
