PHILADELPHIA TAKES A LOOK AT
THE HEIGHTS OF THE PHOTOPLAY ART
The Dramatic Season, Abdicating to King Movie, Gives
Us "Cabiria" and "The Birth of Nation"
to Compare
By the DRAMATIC EDITOR
and
MAX REINHARDT'S WIZARDRY RETURNS
.Tr.TtvrcnN hot weather, failures
JD the theatrical managers new-found
caution tho movies seem to have a
monopoly of the new season. "Tho Birth
of a Nation" and tho Triangle plans for
the Chestnut Street Opera House make
It almost Impossible for that dual per
sonality, tho dramatlo and photoplay edi
tor, to tell when he Is which. And with
feature films promised at. the Metro
politan Opera House next Saturday, he
Is Inclined to let the muslo editor In for
a little of the troubln
All the same, this plethora of movies
has Us decided advantages. It makes for
comparisons. A wide-awake person can
get a sort c;f notion of where tho art
Is going. By the enterprise of Manager
Jacobs, of the Imperial, four large audi
ences got a chance to compare the art
of Europe at its besl-"Cablria"-wlth the
best specimen of American .photoplay so
far produced "The Birth ofV Nation."
'Cablrla" Is old now, particularly If
you Judge time by the lightning develop
ment of the movlea. Its film Is scratched
with "rain." Yet how much It can still
show Amorlca. How much It has already
shown, can be judged by all the depart
ures of "Cablrla," which have now bo
rome tho commonplace of fllmdom. Many
a photoplay has borrowed shamelessly
nnd protltably from the Itala fllm. Even
Orimth's apotheoses In "The Avenging
Conscience,'' for example might be traced
back to that far superior close of
Cabiria," the circling maidens.
Comparison of "Cabiria" and the Grif
fith piece aro a little dimcult; the period
and spirit aro so different. "Cablrla"
Is romantic melodrama: "The Birth of a
Nation" comes close to modern reality.
The producer of the Italian fllm could go
to bliarre lengths In Bcenery and cos
tumes: while Griffith had to duplicate an
almost familiar reality and to depend on
sheer dramatlo drive and spectacular bat
tles for his effect.
Old as "Cablrla" is, it excels "The Birth
of a Nation" on a number of technical
points, notably tho lighting. Griffith
achieves wonders of gradations and con
trasts in out-of-door light: no American
excels him in that 'field. But no Amerl
- can has yet realized how much can be
accomplished with a single centre of Il
lumination. They are still following that
foolish old habit of the stage bathing a
room In a blaze of light from every di
rection. They havo not realized that,
even more effectively than in the theatre,
they can use the play of deep shadow
and high lights as a dramatic element.
as well as a matter of sheer beauty.
"Peer Gynt," at the Stanley, pVoved In
ferior to expectations, but in the scene
In the slaver's cabin, it showed what
wonderful results a single source of light
can lve. In "Cablrla" almost every in
terior goes to prove the same thing.
This concentration of light is particular
ly necessary in Are scenes. On tho whole,
those in "Cablrla" hardly equal Griffith's,
for they are spoiled with some mani
festly artificial flames flapping in front
of tho lense. But, barring those "close
up" tongues of light, the Italian con
flagrations achieve a finer effect by con
centrating their light and bringing it out
from the spot where the fire is supposed
to rage. Thus only natural glares and
shadows are thrown upon the surround
ings, and, when tinted red, the film-shows
In high" light Just those spots that would
ehine In reality.
On another technical point and Just as
vital a one "Cablrla" Is inferior. It is
not a good photoplay from the point of
view of action. It has scenes of catas
tropheearthquake, fire, battle that aro
quite as good as anything In -he Birth
of a Nation."- Many of these scenes ex
cel. But they aro not built Into a
dramatic whole of streaming, accumulat
ing Interest. Half the story runs con
secutively and excitingly. The last half
the most Important half has no climax.
The story .becomes complicated and hard
to follow, instead of inevitable. There
Is no great moment of spectacular or
dramatic action. Then la none of that
exciting uso tot "cut backs" which makes
the Ku Klux rides so engrossing.
Within the limits of Griffith's story, he
achieves much moro than tho Italian pro
ducer In his. But what a far more won
derful field the man has who goes back
to picturesque antiquity for his spectacles!
The costumes and even the elaborate and
curious temples, towers and towns built
for "Cablrla," can be far excelled In
novelty and beauty by a stage artist of
the modern school. Such beautiful visions
as Hannibal crossing the Alps, war ele
phants and camels sludging along, can
all be equaled In whatever period chosen.
The one necessity Is a unifying lntnllt-
fence like Griffith's, a man to choose
scenerlo-wrlter, scenlo designer and
actors, and then to fuse all the elements
with the Are of beauty and excitement.
Griffith will do It yet Walt for his "Holy
Grail."

Tho beautiful procession scene of "Sumurun," as Gertrude Hoffman will present tho famous pantomime
at Keith's next week.
PHILADELPHIA, and all America with
her, got too short a glimpse of Max
Relnhardt's masterly stagecraft, when
Wlnthrop Ames brought tho pantomime,
"Sumurun," to America for a limited
tour three years aback. It Is, therefore,
following no wiles of press agentry to
say that the playgoer owes much to
Gertrude Hoffman who first showed
America a Russian ensemblo ballot for
reviving tho tale of the Arabian Nights
ash a vaudeville vehicle. At Keith's next
week. Philadelphia will see "Sumurun
In tho slightly condensed form in which
it was first presented to London, retain
ing all Its beauties and excellences.
There are two things to ho said about
"Sumurun" as a guide to prospective
playgoers. One Is on the scenlo sldo.
There we shall see no finicky, extrava
gant, befrllled. "elaborate production."
The essence, of Max Itetnhardt's art as
producer, tho things all his artists strive
for In their stage designs, Is simplicity
and suggestion. Beautiful lines' and
colors, but all In a Blmple, easy, striking
treatment. Tho picture reproduced above
showB how admirably a mero silhouette
of wall, houso and sky may make the
most beautiful picture in the pantomime.
Tho other explanation Is due on the
question of speoch or lack of it. Richard
Ordynskl, a lieutenant .of Relnhardt's,
who produced '"Sumurun" for Miss Hoff
mann, has this to say about It: "Rein
hardt conceived tho Idea of producing in
his theatre a play without words, because
he wished acting pure and simple to have
full sway to provide a wider field for the
artists' personality. He took from the
actor his chief means of expression and
confined them to the art of mimicry and
gesture and at the same ttme he freed
him from tho often hampering shackles
or tho text. In the old Italian pantonine
one felt that the nctors were obliged to
use gestures because thoy could not speak,
but the disconcerting question, 'Why
don't they speak?' does not arise in
Sumurun.' "

When word first came that Lincoln was
to figure In a photoplay there were plenty
of people who thought It something close
to sacrilege. Even the figures of lesser
men, like Grant and Lee, they expected
to find repellent In a motion picture en
tertainment. These men were too big.
They lived In the memory; bringing them
back In the flesh seemed a tawdry, cheap
ening business.
Yet it Is Just these people who havo
found one of the greatest charms of "Tho
Birth of a Nation" In its reconstruction
of the country's great men. Though Lin
coln. Grant, Lee and Sumner aro only in
cidental figures to the. story of the
ninmnnin, and tho Camerons, they are
handled with such admirable fidelity ana
restraint that the effect is only dignified
and fitting.
, Lincoln Is the best example of Mr.
Grimth's tact In this matter. The Presi
dent's signing of the call for volunteers
carries a moment of sorrow that hu
manizes the great man, but does not de-
s- scend to the banal. The intercession of
Mrs. Cameron for the life of her son Is
Just as skilfully handled. It makes Lin
coln a part of the story only as a.. great
figure that is drawn in for a moment
to play an objective part. As for the
assassination at Ford's, it Is simple his
tory. It speaks as the event Itself.
movement. The absence hitherto of
scenery and curtain has to a degree
hampered the work of production, and
the setting of scenes In full view of tho
