' CLOSE-UPS of the MOVIE GAME
By HENRY
They Staged Some Costly "Dreams" When They Filmed
"Peter Ibbctson"
New York, Aug. 0.
SOMETIMES It costs a lot of money to gc a dream or n vision In tho movies.
You see the hero asleep ; he dreams he Is a bold bucenneer on a desert isle-
and tho desert isle and the bold buccaneer flash before you on the screen, prob
ably for less than a minute.
It docsn t matter now snort that Hash is. Hie technical men in the studio ,
have to put as much work and ns much thought and as ranch research Into ,
staging tho dream, as they put Into the biggest scenes In tho picture. ;
The high-salaried location man has to hunt around and find the Island or
eise it nas 10 uc duiu in me eiuuio or on inc lot; me rcscarcn ucpanmcni nns to i
be ns accurate In costuming the buccaneer In the dream as though It were an I
essential part of the production. Nothing can be overlooked; visions must be as I
complete. In detail as arc the realities.
You can Imagine, then, tho trouble nnd ezpenso of such n production n ,
"Peter Ibbctson," which Is csscnttully a
she-ro visit tho far places of the earth In
build these places regardless of the cost.
I had n private view of tho completed fllm thli week and it struck me as i
representing the modornncss of the movie art nilccd about to the nth power, '
whatever that is. And, by the way, the story will go out to the public under the
title "Forever." It co-stnrs Wnlly Itcfd and Klslo Ferguson, with Montagu
Lova and George Fawcett doing two of the best character parts they have ever ,
done.
DVT I didn't start out to write a review of the picture. That must
D be left to the dignified high-brow gentleman whoso province it is to
tceigh all the components and tell jou and me what tee ought to think
about a play, regardless of the fact that we iierer think it and wouldn't
if tee could. It would kill our enjoyment of life to take everything as
seriously as these intellectuals take them.
I 'WAS particularly interested in seeing this completed production because I hod
been down at the Lnsky Long Inland studio a good deal while It was being
made, and ono rnthcr elaborate set in particular interested me.
They built it in whnt they call their "back yard." The big picture on this
pago shows you tho nctual construction under way.
First there is tho great back drop of canvas on a huge wooden frame to
represent the distant view of the Arabian desert. You can see that In the uppo.
Itft hand corner of the photograph. Near tho edge you sco the scene painters'
ladder and stand, nnd just to the right of
tMA nvtrl tfiftn ttm atfln nt nn ArnMnn linllcn
the door.
In front of It all, leading back to
the white sands of the desert, glaring in
are running up toward the stepi, you
.harnessed for the thlng-um-jlg In which the passengers ride.
The thing-um-jlg itself Is in the foreground just under the stairs. It looks
more or less like a gigantic poke bonnet. Get it?
It took the technical department n long tlmo to get the authentic details for
this set and It occupied a great deal of valuable space in the back yard, as you
can see.
7ET all that is shown of it on the screen can be seen in the other
tico pictures. It lasts less than three minutes in the finished pro
duction. It is merely a dream that the hero and she-ro have. You see
them come doicn the steps, the camel is driven in, they mount into the
thing-um-jig and ride off. That's all.
AND tho dreams of these two tnko them Into many of the far corners of tho
earth. You see them In a gondola under tho Bridge of Sighs in Venire
(boilt in the studio) nnd that lasts about two minutes. You see them in their
imaginary honeymoon home which Is built with all the elaborate details of con
struction, design and furnishings of nny other part of tho picture.
It means a lot of expense to put on a picturo like that. Yet it has to be
done. You and I wouldn't bo satisfied nowadays to let 'cm put across any of the
old stuff on us. AYe've learned to expect the ultimate in all scenic settings
nnd it means nothing in our young lives that these things are only three-mlnuto
dreams.
TiYhcn I spoke of this production coming near to the well-known nth power
of something I did not refer only to the scenery. The thing that interested me
most of nil may not impress you at nil that Is, you will be Impressed by the
effect without feeling any curiosity about how It was obtained.
I am referring now to tho photograph. I havo cranked a movie camera
myself and I know most of tho standard tricks, but the guy who got elbow
cramps behind the lens in "Forever" has put ncross several stunts that are
entirely new to me and I've been puzzling what I call my brain to And his
methods.
Ho has a dream garden scene in which tho fully grown characters wander
and see themselves B3 children. Of courso, It would have been easy to do with
the old double exposure. But this accomplishes effects that mero doublo exposure
couldn't touch.
I'm going to hunt up that camera bird and see if I can get him to tell you
how he did it nil. Mcbbo ho will and mebbe ho won't. They're a secretive lot,
those camera men.
Bl
WT there is one thing that tcill
cost of production or technical
"Wally's hair. Marcelled. Yep; honest. It's a play of the early eighteen
fifties, you know, and the gentlemen heroes of those days simply had to
have curls.
So they added a hairdresser to the salary list dottn at Lasky's
while they tcere making the picture, and every morning Wally had to
have his lovely long hair marcelled.
Wouldn't you just love to run your fingers through it, Oeraldinet

'THE RUBAIYAT" IS
BEING MADE ON
A MOUNTAIN TOP
By CONSTANCE PALMER
YESTERDAY afternoon I bumped
along a new-born road up an
ancient mountain peak to watch Ferdi
nand Pinncy Enrle direct his produc
tion of "The Rcbnlynt." It was worth
it. Mr. Enrle, who Is an artist, has
been working in preparation for tills
undertaking for two years, actually
maintaining n payroll of designers, re
benrvhurs, other artist and writers
during that time.
First I tnw a troupe of wild-looking
Peninn horsemen swooping down on
me. I dodged and they continued their
tempestuous way to another distant
hilltop.
Pretty soon we came upon scores of
blnck nnd white striped tents that would
look lovely on nuy bench. Extras,
swnthed in multi-colored draping, lay
In the shnde and did what cxtrus
usually do nothing.
I might even ndd thnt at a rough
estimate I noted their breath came In
short pant.
After two or three hundred yards
more we came upon tho ciimurjs focused
on a dramatic scene between Edwin
Steens, ns llnssen ben Snhbah, founder
of the famous nnd notorious order of
Assassins, nnd Hedwiga Rviclur, who,
by the way. Is n nister of Frank Kelt her,
of the Theatre Guild, and n cry famous
actress besides this.
As the htory has It, Miss Rcidier is
til1 wife of Mr Stevens plctori.illy,
Genevieve, pictorlnlly and for moties
of vengeance disguises herself ns a man.
They had just found It out when I came
upon the tcene, and Mr. Stevens wns
about to nhn-so-thlu- is-tt! nnd behead
bur.
Frederick Ward, tho well-known
actor, as Ornnr, hove into sight, nnd
craved mercy for the lndy, who hnd just
discarded her whjHkers. Mr. Stevens
wus about to behead him, too, to say
nothing of director, camera man, su
pernumeraries, chief stoc kholder nnd
what-not, when the s-elf-saiiii' I'trsian
hoi semen who hnd tried to run me
down galloped over tho brow of the hill,
each trying to wiu the dollar the ns
slitant director had offered the one
reaching the scene of action first.
IT WAS a stirring scene to ny tho
very least. It almost mndo me for
get to 'nsk little Katherlne Key, who Is
the "Thou" who sits beside me In the
wilderness, together with the loaf of
brand nnd the jug of wine, for her
recipe for that wine.
When the picturo Is released It will
hava n special musical score, which is
even now being written by Charles
Wakefield Cadman.
Mr. Enrle Is a very sweet man, u
little diffident nnd much too nico to
bear the brunt of tho troubles attendant
on tlio mulling of pictures.
But filming "Tho ltubnlyat" has been
hi dream for years. Now ha is doubt
less in the henrtrondlng position of
buffer botween ldenlism nntl commer
cialism. Mrs. Enrle works with him,
both as adviser nnd as actress, nnd me
thinks I counted two little Enrles In

A THREE-MINUTE DREAM, BUT IT COST A LOT
BilfeoB I
LETTER REACHES ITS
I DESTINATION JUST A
YE ARAFTERM AILING
A TRIBUTE to the efficiency of the
postal service of various European
nations as well as to that of our own
Government was pnld Inst week when
Mary Plckford received a letter that
had followed her all through Europe
nt the tlmo sho and Douglas Fnlr
Lanks were honeymooning abroad.
This letter was mailed from Miss
Pickford's studio in Hollywood nearly
n yenr ago for tho purpose of ascer
taining Miss Pickford's popularity
abroad nnd nlso to test the efficiency of
the contlnentnl postal sjstem. The
enxelope was addressed "Mary Pick
tord, Europe." This epistle was sturted
on its way hhnrtly nfter Miss Plckford
nnd her husband sailed for London from
New York. Urcnt care, wns taken, of
loutsc, to start the letter so late that
it would arrive in England niter the
fnmous newlyweds had gone to France.
This began tho incc between the letter
nnd theso stnrs.
When Mr. nnd Mrs, Fnlrbnnks re
turned from their trnvels. it was learntd
thnt the mlsslte never cnught up with
them nnd those responsible for this
unique "Correspondence Hnudicnp" be
lieved that the 6tunt had failed. Im
agine their surprise when Miss Plckford
received tho letter from her company's
New York office.
When tho letter nrrlved the envelope
was so badly mutilated that It could
not bo saved, but postmarks Indicated
thnt tho missive followed the honey
moontrs over their entire itinernry. Tho
postmarks that could bo read showed
that tho letter had passed through Lon
don, Paris, Coblcnz. Brussels, Berne,
Nice and Versailles."
It Is estimated that this letter trav
eled at lenst L'0,000 miles, all on n four
cent stnmp, and that It taxed the In
genuity of postal workers In at lenst
four Old World capitals.

This Is How the Story Begins:
MELLA UORBLAXP, most famous
' of screen stars, hears that a
young girl, Annette Wilkins, has
fallen in love with Roland Welles,
an idnl nt Ihr trreen. Miss Morelanf.
to save Annette, writes the story of
her otcn tragic love affair with
Welles, intending to send it to
Annette so she may know the kind
of man he is.
She tells hoto, while a pianist in
a movie theatre in a Western Penn
sylvania town, she met Welles when
he made a "personal appearance"
there, how he incited her to come to
A'eto 3'orfc and said he' would place
her in the movies, how she came and
the chilly reception which he tffli'e
her in the studio. Then, becoming
interested in her, he acts her n job
in a small town stock company for
the experience, promising to see her
often.
The manager Insults her and she
leaves, finally getting into- pictures
in New York. Here she works with
Welles. lie makes love to her, pro
poses and she is deliriously happy
until another woman reveals Welles'
perfidy. Then she quits him and the
company.
Here the Story Continues
"I'll do n.s yoi nay," he said and
